How do we add Music Bingo to our trivia night?
Add a Music Bingo round to the same night. Every team gets a bingo card on its phone, the host plays the songs, and teams mark the ones they hear. The app checks each bingo call against the songs played. Music Bingo is on Pro and Business. Check your music licence before the first night.
Quizado is software that your own staff run, or Auto-Host runs a Trivia night by itself. We never send a host.

One night, two games
Music Bingo runs as a round inside your Trivia night, so you do not set up a second event. Put it between two trivia rounds or play it last. The bingo points go on the same scoreboard as the trivia.
How a round plays
The app deals a card to every team when the round starts, and a team that arrives late still gets one. The host plays a song, and teams mark it if it is on their card. When a team completes the pattern in play, it calls bingo on the phone.
The app checks the call against the songs played, and the big screen shows the result. A wrong call scores nothing, and that team waits for the next song before it calls again.
Where the songs come from
Start from a ready music pack, or build your own Music Bingo round in the pack builder. A round needs at least 9 songs and uses up to 75.
Check your music licence
Playing recorded music to guests usually needs a public performance licence. In the US that comes from ASCAP, BMI, SESAC and GMR; in the UK from PPL PRS. Quizado does not license music. Check the rules where you are before your first night, and read our page on the music licence for bars.
Questions venues ask
Do players need paper cards?
No. Each team's card is on its phone, in the browser, with no app to install. If you want paper as well, our Music Bingo card generator makes cards to print.
Which plan do we need?
Music Bingo is on Pro and Business. The free plan and Starter do not include it. To play a full round first, start the 7-day trial of Pro or Business.
How many songs does a round need?
At least 9 songs for a 3 by 3 card, 16 for 4 by 4 and 25 for 5 by 5. A round uses up to 75 songs.
Does Quizado cover the music licence?
No. Quizado does not license music for public performance. Your venue arranges its own licence. Check the rules where you are.
Do the bingo points count toward the trivia scores?
Yes. Each pattern pays points to the team that wins it, on the same scoreboard as the trivia rounds.
