Bingo card generator

Type one word or phrase per line. Each card gets a random selection in a random layout, so no two players have the same card. Choose 3×3, 4×4 or 5×5. On odd sizes you can keep a free space in the center. You need at least as many entries as squares: 24 for a 5×5 card with a free space, 25 without it, 16 for 4×4 and 8 or 9 for 3×3. More entries than that makes the cards more varied.

The example list is meeting bingo ("You're on mute", "Can you see my screen?"), but you can use anything:

• Baby shower and bridal shower bingo with gift items
• Classroom vocabulary bingo with words or definitions
• Road trip bingo with things to spot
• Holiday or movie bingo with things that always happen

Holiday party coming up? Pick a ready-made list and print.

• Christmas bingo: candy cane, gingerbread, ugly sweater, mistletoe, cookies for Santa and more. Great for family gatherings, office parties and classroom holiday parties.
• New Year's Eve bingo: countdown, ball drop, champagne, confetti, midnight kiss. Mark squares as things happen during the party.
• Winter bingo: snowman, sledding, hot cocoa, snow day. A good fit for preschool and elementary classes in January.

Edit any list, add your own inside jokes, and change the title on the cards. Each list has enough words for full 5×5 cards with a free space.

Choose Numbers (1–75) for the standard American bingo card: five columns under B-I-N-G-O, five numbers each, with a free space in the middle.

Each column gets five different random numbers from its range, so every card follows the official layout.

Below the cards there's a caller for the host. With number cards, click Next number to draw a ball that hasn't come up yet; a board of all 75 numbers lights up as they're called, and cards in the preview mark them too. With word cards, the caller draws your words or phrases instead. Copy the call order at the end to double-check a winner.

Choose 1, 2 or 4 cards per letter-size or A4 page: one large card for kids and seniors, two for a standard game, or four to save paper with a big group. Cards are separated by dashed cut lines.

Every card has a card number in the corner, so when someone shouts bingo you can check the card quickly. Add your own title, like "Smith Family Christmas Bingo" or your company name.

Make up to 500 cards at once, and the generator makes sure no two cards are the same.

Words, layouts and called numbers come from your browser's cryptographic random generator, and every card is generated separately, so duplicates are very unlikely when your word list is longer than the card. Nothing is uploaded: the cards and the PDF are created on your device.

If you edit the word list or change the card size, click Make cards again to create a fresh set; the preview and the PDF always match the latest batch. For a word bingo game, the host can call items from the same list by putting the words on spin the wheel and removing each winner after it's called.
