People mingle, laugh, and connect naturally while completing prompts on their phones.

Step-by-step

How to Use the Mingle Bingo Game App at Your Event

The mingle bingo game app helps the people at your event meet new people, not just the people they came with. Here’s how to use it:

  1. 01
    Step 1

    Decide How Many New People Each Person Meets

    Create a Jam Bingo for your event and choose how many different people you'd like each person to talk with. That's the job of the Mingle Bingo Game App: getting people past the group they came with and into conversations with people they haven't met yet.

    TipNot sure? Start with 5 people each - enough to get everyone past the group they came with.
  2. 02
    Step 2

    Add Conversation Prompts

    Pick a ready-made template or write your own prompts. Each prompt gives people a reason to find someone new and a question to start the conversation.

    TipKeep prompts about people, not trivia - "Find someone who…" sends people across the room to someone new.
  3. 03
    Step 3

    Display Your Jam Bingo QR Code

    Put your Jam Bingo QR code on the big screen, at check-in, or on table cards. People scan it with their phone camera to join - no app to download.

    TipExplain it once, in one line: scan, find someone who fits your prompt, talk, then scan each other's QR code.
  4. 04
    Step 4

    Let People Meet New People

    Each person gets a conversation prompt, finds someone who fits it, and talks with them. Then they scan that person's QR code to get their next prompt and meet someone else.

    TipGive it 20 to 45 minutes during a reception, break, or networking session.
  5. 05
    Step 5

    Everyone Leaves With Their Connections

    Every connection is saved, so each person gets a list of the people they met - with the contact info they shared and the conversations they had.

    TipRecognize the people who met the most new people at the end - it's an easy way to wrap up.

Example Prompts for Mingle Bingo Game App

Taken from the Jingle & Mingle: Holiday Networking Happy Hour 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. 1

    Find someone with an ugly holiday sweater story and hear it

    Find someone traveling for the holidays and ask where
