Wink Bingo loses Wheel of Prizes offer

In the Wink of an eye

Wink Bingo has changed its welcome offer, replacing the site’s Wheel of Prizes with a brand new promotion.

Wink’s Welcome Wagon offers seven days of gifts to new players when they sign up and deposit £10.

New members can visit the site daily and play the new Welcome Wagon scratch card game. Across seven days, players have the chance to win up to £700 in bonus funds.

Make sure you login every day though; if you miss a day, that bonus is gone for good.

Wink’s Wheel of Prizes was released in January this year. It gave players one free spin on a bonus wheel when they made their first deposit for the chance to win bonuses and prizes. For example, players could win an iPad Air with their free spin.

That offer expired on 15th May, so Wink clearly decided to replace it with a new idea.

RIP Spin the Wheel?

Spin the Wheel promotions were also recently hit by new regulation requirements from the UK Gambling Commission.

Sites with Bonus Wheels now have to clearly state the exact odds of winning each prize on the wheel. That seemingly small change seems to have made a huge impact on the popularity of Spin the Wheel promotions.

Viking Bingo, a member of Jumpman's Wheel of Slots Network, has also removed its Spin the Wheel welcome offer. Now, the site offers new players 50 free spins on Fluffy Favourites as standard.

It’s worth noting that other Wheel of Slots Network sites are unchanged at the minute. Will Spin the Wheel offers soon be a thing of the past? Or will sites evolve the concept to keep them around? It’ll be interesting to see!
