How Blingo Works
Lots of people ask us this question. One clever user simply sent us this email:
250 millon people live in the United States of AmericaI get it. We'd like to let people from other countries use Blingo, but it's a bit complicated. The issue is that giving away lots of prizes like we do is regulated by laws that vary from state to state and country to country. These laws require us to submit certain information about our prizes and, in some cases, we even have to file bonds guaranteeing that we'll give away the prizes we say we're going to give away. If we expand to other countries we'll have to do even more of this stuff. We're just not ready to deal with the time and expense yet. But someday we will be.
