Word Bingo Card Generator

Enter your words, one per line, and choose how many cards you need. You get numbered bingo cards, a caller's list for the host, and checks counted again from the finished cards. Print the cards and the caller's list separately, and copy the link to open the same cards later.

One word or phrase per line, up to 100 lines. Blank lines are skipped. Words that differ only in capital letters count as the same word. A 5 × 5 card with a free space needs 24 different words, and a 4 × 4 card needs 16.

From 1 to 100.

A 4 × 4 board has no center square, so it has no free space.

The seed is a number that sets the random choice of words. The same words, settings, and seed give the same cards.

How the cards are made

Each card gets words picked at random from your list. A 5 × 5 card holds 24 words around a free space in the center, or 25 without one. A 4 × 4 card holds 16 words and has no free space. The page aims to put no word twice on one card and to give each card a different set of words. When your list is too short for different sets, the page says so and aims to arrange the words differently on each card that shares a set. The checks below count cards with the same word twice, repeated word sets, and repeated layouts, so you can see what you got.

The caller's list numbers your words in the order you entered them. Each card has its number in the top right corner, so when someone calls bingo, you can find their card on screen and check it against the words you've called.

The seed sets the random choice. The same words, settings, and seed give the same cards, so a copied link opens the same set. This page uses version 1 of the word bingo rules.

What the checks count

After the cards are made, a separate count reads the finished cards and caller's list again, starting from your word list. It counts the cards, squares with a word that isn't in your list, cards with the same word twice, the caller's list against your list's order, and repeated cards: cards with the same set of words as another card, and cards with the same words in the same squares. A check shows Match only when its count equals the expected value. Repeated cards are shown as numbers, even when they're 0.

Limits

You can enter up to 100 lines of words and make 1 to 100 cards at a time. Words that differ only in capital letters count as the same word, and the page points them out instead of removing them. The page doesn't call words, track winners, or make number bingo cards.
