UPDATED August 2013 – between all these offers there is £100 in cashback profit available.
We’ve previously covered free bingo and if you’ve exhausted those opportunities but finding yourself addicted to bingo then bingo for cashback is for you.
I explained cashback in more detail here. You sign up for the three main cashback websites Quidco, Topcashback and Wepromiseto. Once you’ve logged in you can search for all the gambling related cashback – this doesn’t just include bingo. What you’re looking for is something that pays out more than you have to deposit and wager, for instance, if Paddy Power Bingo pay out £15 cashback and you only have to deposit and wager £10 you will be £5 in profit, before any bingo wins – which of course you cannot count on.
It’s important to understand that the idea behind this is not to win at bingo. If you do win then great, but do not count on it. This is a longer term investment, with cashback being paid typically 3 months after the deposit. As a general rule I try to only invest £20 per time in this (typically two sites), wait for that to pay out, and then do another two websites
I’ve compiled a list of offers at the moment for you to choose from. I’d suggest creating a budgeted amount to spend now and wait until more cashback is paid out before trying every single site out – cashback isn’t guaranteed by any means so you need to be careful. Don’t visit a site via a cashback link unless you’re ready to complete the transaction, or clear your cache before you do.
There are some duplicates – you can choose between Quidco or Topcashback as your preferred cashback provider.

Please note that you must play your deposited money and ensure that there isn’t a higher wager amount – at the time of writing there isn’t on any of them. A higher wager amount means that you must deposit £10 but play £25, meaning you need to play your winnings until you’ve spent £25. If you don’t win and don’t redeposit then you’ll lose out.
Remember you’re not playing to win, but merely to receive cashback.
