Inviting players & joining a bingo

Outcome

After this guide, organizers will know how to invite people into a bingo and players will know how to complete the join flow successfully.

Before you start

• The bingo should already exist in the app.
• Signups should still be open.
• Players should have an RNG Bingo account ready before they join.

For organizers: share the invite link

1. Open the bingo workspace.
2. Use Copy Invite Link from the workspace overview or sharing controls.
3. Post that link anywhere your community coordinates, such as Discord, event announcements, or a signup post.
4. Tell players to complete the signup before the Signup close date.

For players: join the bingo

1. Open the invite link you received.
2. Sign in if prompted.
3. Review the bingo details, board, and signup requirements.
4. Fill in the requested profile fields.
5. Add your timezone so moderators can understand your availability.
6. Add any comments the organizer asked for.
7. Submit the form to join the bingo.

If you use linked accounts

• If you already linked an account for the tile pack, choose it during signup to prefill your player details.
• If the organizer allows Discord registration, players can start with /bingo join signup in Discord and continue in the web app.
• If players want to submit tile progress through Discord, they may also need to generate a one-time player link code from the bingo’s Discord tab and redeem it with /bingo join switch-player code:<code>.

Common gotchas

• If signups are closed, players will not be able to join until the organizer changes the event setup.
• Joining the bingo does not automatically place a player onto a team. Team assignment happens later in Team Management.
• If the event has a registration fee, joining still succeeds before payment is marked. Moderators track paid and unpaid players separately.
