Why Run a Chamber of Commerce Mixer Game?
A chamber of commerce mixer game shows new members the value of joining on night one. Instead of standing alone while long-time members catch up, they get prompts like 'Find a long-time member and ask what they've gotten the most out of their membership.' New members feel welcome, regulars meet fresh faces, and you get members who renew because they made real connections.
Jam Bingo sends each attendee one prompt at a time on their phone. They find someone who matches, talk, and scan each other's QR codes to unlock the next prompt. Prompts can point new members to veterans and ambassadors on purpose, and every connection is saved for easy follow-up.
How Does Chamber of Commerce Mixer Game Work?
Chamber of Commerce Mixer Game runs on Jam Bingo—the simple, interactive networking activity. It is not a card, it has no squares, and attendees do not fill anything out. Here’s what each attendee does:
- 1
Scan to join
Attendees scan the event’s Jam Bingo QR code (or enter the game code). It runs in the phone’s browser—nothing to download.
- 2
Get a conversation prompt
Each person receives a conversation prompt on their phone, like a question to ask someone new.
- 3
Find someone and talk
They find someone who fits the prompt, have the conversation, then scan that person’s QR code (or enter their code) to unlock the next prompt.
- 4
Repeat and connect
Every connection is saved, and the leaderboard shows who met the most new people—perfect for prizes.

Example Prompts for Chamber of Commerce Mixer Game
Taken from the Chamber New Member Mixer template. Use them as a starting point, then adapt them to your group.
Make people move
Start prompts with "Find someone who…" so each one sends players across the room to a new person, not back to their own table.
Mix easy and deeper prompts
Open with quick, observable prompts (something they're wearing, where they're from), then add a few that lead to a real story.
Keep them inclusive
Avoid prompts about money, looks, or anything someone could feel left out of. Everyone should be able to answer at least half of them.
Match the length of your event
Around 12–16 prompts fits a 30-minute game. More prompts than time just leaves people unfinished.
- 1
Find someone who joined the chamber in the last six months
- 2
Find a long-time member and ask what they've gotten the most out of their membership
- 3
Find a chamber ambassador or board member and ask which event you shouldn't miss
- 4
Ask someone what made them decide to join the chamber
- 5
Find someone whose business serves the same customers as yours, without competing
