Who is behind the Heart Bingo casino app
Heart Bingo involves two companies, each with a different job. Global, the media group that owns Heart radio, owns the brand. BV Gaming Limited, part of BetVictor, holds the gambling licence and runs the regulated side. The site was relaunched in this form on 23 September 2021, when BetVictor took it on in partnership with Global.
On the Gambling Commission's register, BV Gaming Limited is registered at an office on Bayside Road, Gibraltar, under account 39576. It holds remote casino and betting licences dating from 1 November 2014, a gambling software licence from 24 March 2015 and a bingo licence from 31 March 2021, all active. heartbingo.co.uk is listed on the licence as a white label. A white label means the brand's look and marketing can come from one company while the licensed operator handles verification, payments and safer gambling.

Here the developer on the listing matches the licence holder, which makes the usual check straightforward. For Android, search Google Play for Heart Bingo and look for the same developer name; we didn't confirm a Play listing for this profile. Our guide to reading casino app store listings explains each field.
Bingo rooms listed in the Heart Bingo app
Bingo is the centre of the app. The listing names 90-, 80-, 75- and 50-ball rooms, music-themed rooms called Feel Good, Turbo Tunes and Vibe With 75, a Newbie Room with extra prizes for new players, two Deal or No Deal rooms and a 90-Ball Weekly Wonder Room. It also mentions free-to-play bingo rooms, which don't take a ticket purchase and usually come with eligibility rules set out in the room's terms.
Since February 2025 the rooms have run on Playtech's bingo platform. On a phone, bingo rooms generally show the called numbers above your tickets, with chat in a panel alongside. Ticket prices, room schedules and prize pots vary, so read the room information before buying. Our bingo apps guide explains how ball formats differ and what a full house or line pays in practice.
Slots, Slingo and live casino in the Heart Bingo app
Beyond bingo, the listing describes a slots library of more than 2,500 games including jackpot slots, Slingo versions of titles such as Rainbow Riches and Deal or No Deal, and live casino with blackjack, roulette, Lightning Roulette and Infinite Blackjack. Live game shows named include Crazy Time, Monopoly Live, Deal or No Deal and Gonzo's Treasure Hunt.
Slots move far faster than bingo. UK rules cap online slot stakes at £5 per spin for over-25s and £2 for 18–24-year-olds, with no autoplay and at least 2.5 seconds per spin, but sessions still add up. If you came for bingo, decide in advance whether you'll open the slots tab at all.

BV Gaming's regulatory record
In February 2022, BV Gaming Limited agreed a settlement of about £2 million with the Gambling Commission. The register currently shows no active regulatory actions on account 39576. That history applies to the licence holder and so to every brand on it, not to Heart Bingo alone. Our safe casino apps page explains how to weigh it.

Frequently asked questions
Who owns Heart Bingo?
The Heart brand belongs to Global, the media group behind Heart radio, while the gambling side is run by BV Gaming Limited, part of BetVictor, under UK Gambling Commission account 39576. BetVictor relaunched Heart Bingo with Global on 23 September 2021, and heartbingo.co.uk is listed on the licence as a white label. The licence holder is the company responsible to the regulator. Our licence check guide shows how to confirm this.
Is Heart Bingo licensed and safe?
Heart Bingo trades on BV Gaming Limited's active UK licence, which covers casino, bingo and betting and requires age checks, safer gambling tools and independent dispute resolution. The app's developer on the App Store is the same company, which makes it easy to confirm you've got the genuine listing. BV Gaming agreed a settlement of about £2 million in 2022. After installing, protect the account with a strong, unique password and biometric login where offered.
What iPhone do I need for Heart Bingo?
The App Store listing for Heart Bingo: Casino & Slots stated iOS 16.0 or later in October 2026, with an install size of 112.7 MB. It also runs on iPad with iPadOS 16 and on Apple Vision. Most iPhones still in everyday use can run iOS 16, but check the Compatibility line before downloading. If yours can't, the website works in Safari. Our iPhone casino apps page explains requirements and updates.
What bingo games are in the Heart Bingo app?
The listing names 90-, 80-, 75- and 50-ball rooms, music-themed rooms called Feel Good, Turbo Tunes and Vibe With 75, a Newbie Room for new players, two Deal or No Deal rooms and a 90-Ball Weekly Wonder Room. It also mentions free-to-play rooms, which have their own eligibility terms. Rooms run on Playtech's bingo platform. Our guide to bingo apps explains how each format plays on a phone.
Is Heart Bingo connected to Heart radio?
Yes, by brand. Global, which owns Heart radio, owns the Heart Bingo name, and the site was relaunched with BetVictor in 2021 in partnership with Global. The gambling operation itself, including your account, deposits, withdrawals and safer gambling tools, is run by BV Gaming Limited under its UK licence. Listening to the station has no link to your account. Our casino app versus bingo app comparison explains how bingo-led apps differ.
Can I play slots on the Heart Bingo app?
Yes. The App Store listing describes a slots library of more than 2,500 games, including jackpot slots, alongside Slingo and live casino. UK rules apply to every slot: a £5 per spin cap for players aged 25 and over, £2 for 18 to 24-year-olds, no autoplay and at least 2.5 seconds per spin. Slots move faster than bingo, so set limits first. Our explainer on UK stake limits on mobile slots covers the caps.
Which other sites share Heart Bingo's licence?
BV Gaming Limited's licence, account 39576, also covers BetVictor, Parimatch, Betano, talkSPORT BET and Smooth Spins, according to the register's domain list. They're separate brands with their own accounts, so limits and exclusions set on one may not carry across. If you use more than one, GAMSTOP gives a single block across all UK operators. Our explainer on having more than one casino app covers managing several accounts.
How do I take a break from Heart Bingo?
Open the account menu in the app and look for the safer gambling section. There you can set a time-out for a short break, or self-exclude for six months or longer. These apply to Heart Bingo; to block every UK-licensed site and app, register with GAMSTOP, which is free. Deleting the app doesn't close your account or stop marketing on its own. Our guide to self-excluding on a casino app walks through the process.
Gambling can be addictive. Free, confidential help is available 24 hours a day from the National Gambling Helpline on 0808 8020 133. Get support from GamCare or NHS gambling support, or block yourself from all UK-licensed gambling sites with GAMSTOP.
