Why onboarding bingo works

Starting a new job means absorbing a lot of information fast — new systems, new people, new jargon, new norms. Onboarding bingo breaks that into a scavenger hunt: each square is a small discovery milestone. It gives new hires a reason to explore on their own terms rather than sitting through another deck of slides.

What to put on the card

The best onboarding bingo squares are specific to your company. "Met someone from engineering," "found the good coffee," "learned what [internal acronym] stands for," "had a 1:1 with their manager," "figured out where the printer is." Mix logistical tasks with cultural ones — the cultural squares are usually the ones people remember.

How to run it over the first week

Give new hires the card on day one and set a loose goal: complete a row by the end of the week. Check in on Friday — anyone who completes a row gets a small recognition (Slack shoutout, gift card, or just public acknowledgment). Running multiple new hires at once? Let them compare cards and share tips on who to talk to.

Adapting for remote and hybrid teams

Remote onboarding bingo works slightly differently. Replace in-person tasks ("found the break room") with virtual ones: "attended a team standup," "got added to three Slack channels," "sent their first message in the company-wide channel," "had a coffee chat with someone outside their team." The goal is the same — build connections early.

Customizing the card for your company

Use the card creator to build a custom onboarding card with your team's actual tools, names, and traditions. Add your internal Slack channels, the names of key team members, company values, or onboarding checklist items. A card that feels specific to your company signals care — it tells new hires someone put thought into their first week.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is onboarding bingo?

It's a card with squares like "met someone from another department," "found the coffee machine," or "learned a company acronym." New hires mark squares as they explore the company during their first days. It turns the exploratory part of onboarding into something with a little structure and payoff.

How do you play onboarding bingo?

Give each new hire a card at the start of orientation. As they complete tasks or learn new things, they mark squares. First to complete a row wins a small prize — or run it all week and celebrate anyone who finishes.

Can I customize it for my company?

The card creator lets you add company-specific clues — team names, office locations, tools, Slack channels, culture traditions. A generic card is fine; a card built for your company is better.

Does it work for remote new hires?

Share the BingWow link in Slack. Remote employees complete prompts like "scheduled a 1:1," "joined a team channel," or "attended a standup" and mark their card on any device.
