Frequently Asked Questions
How many different bingo cards can I create?
The generator can create thousands of unique combinations from the available task pool. With over 25 pre-built tasks plus your custom additions, each time you generate a card, it randomly selects and arranges tasks differently, ensuring that participants have unique experiences even at the same event.
Can I customize the tasks for my specific event?
Absolutely! You can add unlimited custom tasks in the custom items section. Simply type each task on a new line. This allows you to create industry-specific challenges, reference event speakers or sponsors, or include tasks relevant to your particular networking goals.
What's the ideal grid size for networking events?
For most networking events, a 5x5 grid works well as it provides enough variety without being overwhelming. For shorter events or quick icebreakers, 3x3 or 4x4 grids are perfect. Larger 6x6 grids work best for multi-day conferences where participants have more time to complete challenges.
How do I verify that participants completed their tasks?
Most networking bingo operates on an honor system, which actually enhances trust-building among participants. However, you can implement verification methods like having participants collect signatures, take photos for certain tasks, or share stories about their completed challenges when they claim their bingo.
