Virtual holiday bingo for work

No bingo cards to make or send. In People Bingo everyone ticks the holiday facts that are true for them, gets a card of facts about their teammates, and races to find who “has built a snowman” or “wraps presents the night before”. One link in Teams, Zoom or Meet.

People Bingo is included with a TeamBridge pass: $299 for 7 days or $499 for 12 months, for up to 200 players. Scribble and eight more games are free.

Tips for holiday bingo with a remote team

  • Pick the card size

    4×4 for a small team, 5×5 for a big one. Play to the first Bingo, 3 Bingos or a full card.

  • Let people talk

    The fun is asking each other. Leave mics on, or use breakout rooms for a big call.

  • Holiday or not

    Pick Holiday season for only holiday facts, Mix + Holiday for a mix with fun, work and travel facts, or a year-round set.

  • Book it early

    In 2026, the last Friday before Christmas is Friday, December 18. Holiday calls that week fill up fast.

Questions

How do you play virtual holiday bingo at work?

Open a People Bingo lobby, pick the Holiday season facts and paste the link in the call. Everyone ticks the facts true for them, then gets a card and finds the teammate for each square. The first full row wins.

Do I need to make bingo cards?

No. The game builds each card from the team’s own answers, so every square matches a real teammate.

How many people can play?

3 to 100 in one lobby. Pick a 4×4 card for small teams and 5×5 for big ones.

Does it work on Zoom and Microsoft Teams?

Yes. Everyone plays in a browser tab next to the call, on a laptop or a phone, with nothing to install.

Do players need an account?

No. The host signs in and shares the link; everyone else picks a name and plays.

Is holiday bingo free?

People Bingo is included with a TeamBridge pass: $299 for 7 days or $499 for 12 months, for up to 200 players. Scribble and eight other games are free.
