Jumpman Gaming is a very well known company, with a huge network of bingo and slot sites operating under its license.
They have over 230 sites to their name, mostly white label brands but a good handful of their own sites too. What all of their bingo sites have in common, whether they are in house brands or white labels, is that they run on the Pragmatic Play bingo network.
That’s right, a network of bingo sites that use the services of a completely separate bingo network! It’s a head scrambler.
It wasn’t always this way for Jumpman. Prior to 2021 they had their own in house network known as the 15 Network. This means they ran their own bingo rooms.
Launched in 2011 by founder and industry heavyweight Ben Starr, the 15 Bingo Network did well to begin with. However, it was soon overtaken by others doing bigger and better things, and in the end it had a pretty shoddy reputation for empty rooms and tiny prizes.
Something had to be done. So they closed their in house bingo product and teamed up with Pragmatic Play instead, and overnight, Jumpman Gaming bingo sites were an exciting place to play again.
New Bingo Sites on the 15 Network
The Pragmatic Play Network
Since sites that are part of Jumpman Gaming’s network automatically use Pragmatic Play’s bingo network, I should probably talk about them too.
Pragmatic Play were better known as a casino and slot game developer than anything else, but around 2020, they also started to make their own bingo games.
They were new, fresh, fun to play, and most importantly, busy.
This attracted businesses and players alike, with Jumpman being one of their biggest customers. It does mean that players at Jumpman’s websites will be pooled with players from sites not part of Jumpman’s network, but that makes no difference to the player. They will just see bigger prizes, jackpots that grow more quickly, and busier bingo rooms.
The only real downside is that Pragmatic Play bingo games don’t have chat rooms built into them, but since there was never anyone in the old 15 Network rooms to chat with anyway, it’s not a huge loss.

Jumpman Gaming’s Defunct 15 Network
The 15 Bingo Network was one of two bingo networks that ran under the Jumpman Gaming banner. The other was called the Wheel of Slots network.
The difference was about branding really, with sites on the 15 Network aimed at bingo centric players and sites on the Wheel of Slots network aimed at slot fans who played bingo on the side.
The two networks were eventually merged into one (the 15 Network), with the Mega Wheel feature the only real survivor from the Wheel of Slots network, and this is what most people will remember as Jumpman’s bingo network.
It was never the best. Old fashioned, a bit basic with only 90-ball and 75-ball variations, and very little was done to update it or keep it fresh.
However, Jumpman Gaming were also affordable, so there was no shortage of white label sites signing up with them. The problem was, most of them didn’t have many players. This meant bingo rooms on the 15 Network were often dead, and it felt like Jumpman had given up on them in order to focus on the casino side.
When they made the call to officially let the 15 Bingo Network die and move their sites over to Pragmatic Play, the sites were revitalised but the 15 Network was no more.
Playing on Their Sites Today
All Jumpman Gaming sites are easily recognisable.
They usually have a pretty strong theme – or a completely mad one – and the interface design is distinctive too. The sites always feel cartoony or cuddly, and apart from some soft casino products you will never find anything else on them, no sportsbook or anything like that.
The most distinctive thing about them though is their rewards system and their promotions.
They operate a trophy rewards scheme across all of their sites with the Mega Wheel integrated into it. Basically, players earn trophies for various things and when they get enough trophies they go up a level, earning a spin on the Mega Wheel. The wheel is loaded with great prizes which become the rewards.
In terms of promotions, the Jumpman network likes to run lots of them, and they can get pretty whacky. From daily free games and free bingo to slots tournaments, prize draws with real prizes (like Macbook Airs), drops and wins, daily game specific giveaways, and they have even used takeaway vouchers as prizes in the past!
The bingo itself is very diverse in terms of game variations, with room specific game features or progressive jackpots available. There aren’t loads of rooms, but each one is quality and has its own appeal. They run every few minutes too so there’s little to no waiting around.
Jumpman offer simple sites with super gaming content, and give players tons of extra reasons to sign on and play. There is nothing serious here, it’s all about silly fun, but the bingo is first rate.
