ITEM 1. BUSINESS

INTRODUCTION

Bingo.com, Ltd. (the "Company") is in the business of owning and marketing a bingo based entertainment website that provides a variety of Internet games plus other forms of entertainment, including an online community, chat rooms, and more. Located at www.bingo.com, the Company has built one of the leading bingo portals on the Internet. The Bingo.com website has attracted millions of visitors from over 200 countries. The level of Internet traffic that arrives at Bingo.com has a direct impact on our revenues as, generally, the greater the Internet traffic, the greater the amount of gaming or advertising revenue received.

We generate our main source of revenue from players depositing funds into their Bingo.com account and play games for money. An additional source of revenue comes from selling advertising on the website to other companies who wish to advertise their products to our user demographic. We obtained a gaming license and commenced gambling operations from Curacao, Netherlands Antilles in May 2005. The Company was granted a license by the Lotteries and Gaming Authority of Malta, and commenced operating under this Maltese license in March 2009.

During the year ended December 31, 2010, we joined the Unibet International Limited ("Unibet") Partner Program as a network operator of their multi-language and multi-currency bingo and casino system. The Unibet Partner Program provides a complete solution to Bingo.com which includes gambling licenses, multi-language customer support, financial processing capabilities, website technology, bingo games, soft games, casino games and many other services required to operate an online gambling business.  Bingo.com players continue to play on the website www.bingo.com but now participate in rooms shared across the entire Unibet Partner Program alongside players from Maria.com, Bingo.se, and other white label partner sites. These combined games increase the gaming liquidity and create one of the largest and most international online gaming systems in operation.

Unibet is paid a commission based on a fixed percentage of the gaming revenues generated on the Bingo.com website.  Unibet will own, create and run the service offered and it will be the Company's responsibility to drive traffic to the website.  Bingo.com continues to own the player data contained within the database of players that register at www.bingo.com.

 Page 3

In addition, as a member of the Partner Program, Bingo.com is no longer required to secure or maintain any online gambling licenses of its own as the Company is permitted to offer Internet gambling products to its players pursuant to Unibet's licenses in relevant jurisdictions.

Since joining the Unibet Partner Program, we embarked on a cost focused restructure of the Bingo.com organization which has included a significant staff downsizing, the termination of hosting and other operational contracts, the sale of computer hardware, a reduction in office space, the release of both our Maltese and Curacao gaming licenses, and much more.  The Bingo.com restructuring program was completed in the quarter ending June 30, 2011.  The remaining costs of Bingo.com are now focused behind the marketing function of the organization as we build the Bingo.com brand in our target markets and generate increasing amounts of Internet traffic to create a large base of valuable customers.  We intend to expand our business, leveraging the many different languages and currencies supported by Unibet's system, by launching marketing campaigns in jurisdictions which we anticipate will be the most responsive to Bingo.com's online offering. Furthermore, in an attempt to maximize the value of our North American visitors to whom we cannot offer online gambling services, we have commenced the development of an innovative social bingo game that we expect to launch in the second quarter of 2013.

The Bingo.com website provides players the ability to purchase bingo cards online for cash, with the winner of each bingo game winning a percentage of the total cards purchased for that particular bingo game. The website is divided into two main sections: (1) the main section is accessible to players from countries where the Company offers its pay-to-play games; and, (2) the second section is focused on a free-to-play offering for the remaining countries.  Depending on the pay-to-play or free-to-play section of the website, the Company provides online entertainment content to players consisting of multiplayer bingo games, video poker, casino games and slot machines.

References in this document to "the Company," "we," "us," and "our" refer to Bingo.com, Ltd. and our subsidiaries, which are described below.

Our executive offices are located at Hansa Bank Building, Ground Floor, Landsome Road, The Valley, AI 2640, The Valley, Anguilla, B.W.I.  Our telephone number is (264) 461-2646.

History and Corporate Structure

The Company was originally incorporated in the State of Florida on January 12, 1987.

Effective January 22, 1999, the Company acquired the use of the second level domain name bingo.com and embarked on our business strategy to become a leading online provider of bingo based games and entertainment.

Effective April 7, 2005, the shares of Bingo.com, Ltd. by way of a merger between Bingo.com, Inc. and Bingo.com, Ltd., began trading under the new ticker symbol "BNGOF".

We conduct our business through the Anguilla incorporated entity and through our wholly-owned subsidiaries English Bay Office Management Limited ("English Bay"), Bingo.com (UK) plc ("Bingo UK"), Coral Reef Marketing Inc. ("Coral Reef") and Bingo.com N.V.

English Bay was incorporated under the laws of British Columbia, Canada, on February 10, 1998, as 559262 B.C. Ltd. and changed its name to Bingo.com (Canada) Enterprises Inc. on February 11, 1999. It subsequently changed its name to English Bay Office Management Limited on September 8, 2003.

Bingo.com, N.V. was incorporated under the laws of Curacao, Netherlands Antilles on October 29, 2004.

On August 15, 2002, we acquired 99% of the share capital of Bingo.com (UK) plc. Bingo UK was incorporated under the laws of England and Wales on August 18, 2000, as CellStop plc. and changed its name to Bingo.com (UK) plc. on August 5, 2002.

 Page 4

On January 21, 2008, Coral Reef Marketing Inc., was incorporated under the laws of Anguilla, British West Indies.

We also maintain a number of inactive wholly-owned subsidiaries.  These are:

-  Bingo.com (Antigua), Inc., ("Bingo.com (Antigua") incorporated as an Antigua International Business Corporation on April 7, 1999, as Star Communications Ltd. and changed its name to Bingo.com. (Antigua), Inc. on April 21, 1999; 

-   Bingo.com (Wyoming), Inc., incorporated in the State of Wyoming on July 14, 1999;

-   Bingo.com Acquisition Corp., incorporated in the State of Delaware on January 9, 2001.

All three of the inactive subsidiaries were incorporated to facilitate the implementation of business plans that we have since modified and refocused and, consequently, there is no activity in these entities.

Subsequent to the year ended December 31, 2012, we acquired 100% of the share capital of Shoal Media Inc., an Anguillian Company.

Our common shares are currently quoted on the Over the Counter Markets - The Venture Marketplace ("OTCQB") operated by OTC Markets Group Inc. under the symbol "BNGOF". We have not been subject to any bankruptcy, receivership or other similar proceedings.

Development of the Business

Our current business strategy is to manage and grow our business with minimal overhead, focusing on our major asset, the bingo.com domain name, which was acquired in 1999.

Bingo.com Domain Name

On January 18, 1999, we purchased the exclusive right to use the domain name bingo.com from a then unrelated company, Bingo, Inc., an Anguilla corporation, for (i) a $200,000 cash payment, (ii) 500,000 shares of our common stock (at a value of $2.00 per share) and (iii) an agreement to pay, on an ongoing basis, the Domain Name Purchase price amounting to 4% of our annual gross revenues, with a total minimum guaranteed Domain Name Purchase payment of $1,100,000 in the first three years of the 99 year period ending December 31, 2098. The value of the bingo.com domain name was based on factors such as the ability for us to create a brand for our website based on the name, the ease of Internet search ability of the domain name, and the ability of visitors to our website to remember and associate the name with our website and business. We negotiated the terms of the domain name acquisition at arms' length, and we believe the consideration we paid for the domain name was reasonable.

During the year ended December 31, 2002, the agreement was amended so that the remaining Domain Name Purchase payments to the vendor were made monthly, based on 4% of the preceding month's gross revenue.

In the latter half of fiscal 2010, the Company engaged an independent valuation company, to value the remaining 4% Domain Name Purchase payments.  The Company reviewed the independent valuation and after considering this and other external variables, the Company and Bingo, Inc., the holder of the 4% Domain Name Purchase payments, agreed that the value of the 4% Domain Name Purchase payments to be $900,000. During the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company purchased the remaining Domain Name Purchase payments for $900,000 from Bingo, Inc., with the issuance of 6,000,000 common shares of Bingo.com, Ltd., at a value of $0.15 per share.

BUSINESS OVERVIEW

Our objective is to become the leading online provider of bingo based games and entertainment. We intend to leverage the worldwide popularity of bingo with the growth of the Internet to become the premier bingo portal.

We are in the business of owning and marketing an entertainment website which provides a variety of games, both for free and for money. As a member of the Unibet Partner Program, we have focused

 Page 5

our website around a core gaming offering of bingo, slots, and casino games which are appreciated by our visitors.  The content contained on our website is developed and maintained in partnership with Unibet. We are attempting to create a valuable entertainment website with an extensive database of active players.

In the second quarter of 2013, the Company expects to launch an innovative social bingo game. This game will be free-to-play but will have the incentives for players which may drive additional revenue.

The entertainment and other content provided on the bingo.com portal does not include "adult" content.

Gaming Revenue Business

During the quarter ended June 30, 2005, Bingo.com, N.V., a subsidiary of Bingo.com, Ltd., commenced gaming for cash whereby players purchase bingo cards and wager on other soft games such as video poker, hi-lo, and slots with the target audience being the United States and the games played in US dollars.

On September 30, 2006, the United States Senate passed the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act 2006 ("UIGEA"), which was signed into law by President Bush, on October 13, 2006. The legislation aimed to prohibit the funding of illegal online gambling to United States citizens and residents. Effective October 12, 2006, in response to the UIGEA we sold our United States player database and related assets to an unrelated company. The asset disposition included the registered online gaming players, the gaming servers, and the complete database of real money players. The asset disposition price was $1,200,050 payable at a variable rate over the subsequent period until fully paid.  As at December 31, 2012, $430,500 (2011 - $430,500) of the $1,200,050 had been paid. During the year ended December 31, 2012 the website operating with these players ceased to exist and is no longer operational. The Company is attempting recover payment for our players but payment is doubtful.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2007, we launched our United Kingdom focused website, with games targeted to the United Kingdom audience and the games played in British pounds sterling.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2010, we migrated to the Unibet's Partner Program as a network operator of their multi-language and multi-currency bingo and casino systems.

Gaming revenue from the Bingo.com website accounted for approximately 97% of our revenue for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Advertising Revenue Business

Our entertainment portal includes a variety of free bingo and other games, provided to registered players over the Internet who compete against other players for the chance to win points. These points can be used to enter draws for prizes. We intend to continue to provide points-based, play-for-free games in jurisdictions, such as the United States, where online gaming is not permitted.

We have in the past used the appeal of the bingo.com domain name to sell advertising on the free section of the website, which was our primary revenue source. During the quarter ended June 30, 2005, we commenced offering traditional bingo and other pay-for-play games to our players, which replaced advertising as our main source of revenue. Advertising revenue from the bingo.com website accounted for approximately 3% of our revenue for the year ended December 31, 2012. Although many of our games are free to play, players are required to register to receive points and to win prizes and to access certain features on the site. All registration information is stored in online databases.

            Social Bingo Business

During the second quarter of 2013, we expected to launch an innovative social bingo game. This will be offered on social media outlets.  Revenue will be generated via in-app purchases.

 Page 6

The Niche

We continue to work towards positioning ourselves as the leading bingo focused entertainment portal on the Internet.  We believe the size of the worldwide bingo community, the domain name bingo.com, and the attractive nature of our product offering provides us an opportunity to build a large loyal base of daily visitors from around the world.

We believe that bingo is well suited for online entertainment content, and that online games are a compelling entertainment medium for a mass user audience.  We also believe that players will value an opportunity to win prizes and cash while being allowed to access bingo focused content according to their own schedule, their own currency and from their own location.

BUSINESS STRATEGY

Our objective is to become the premier online destination for web-based bingo entertainment and a leading entertainment destination on the Internet. We are pursuing this objective through the following strategies:

Revenue streams

In 2012, we generated 97% of our revenue from gaming revenue and 3% of our revenue from advertising revenue. We earned these revenues from our portal through a variety of ways, such as the following:

-   Marketing our website to drive players to our website which under the Unibet Partner Program offers bingo and other similar games, such as slots and casino, for money to our players.

-   Banner and button advertisements on our website;

-   Sponsorships of email newsletters or parts of our site;

Throughout 2012, we were focused primarily on increasing our gaming revenue at the expense of our advertising revenue. During the year ended December 31, 2005, we suspended the majority of the sale of advertising and focused entirely on the gaming revenue component of the business.  With the passing of the United States Unlawful Internet Gambling Act in October of 2006, we again began to serve advertising on our website.

Advertising revenue calculations are based on click-throughs, percentage of sales transactions, or other methods depending on the details of the agreements.

Expand registered user database

We have demonstrated the ability to attract and keep a large subscriber base. It is our intention to continue the growth of our database through the development of the Bingo.com website in a manner that will attract the most traffic and player registrations.

Leverage licensed users and alliances

We are confident that the variety of games and entertainment available on our website will encourage many visitors to come, stay, deposit funds, play and revisit often. In the process of providing a one-stop entertainment arena for bingo players, we, in partnership with Unibet, are creating a value based website which is backed by an extensive database of registered players.

Extend and enhance the value of the brand name

We believe that establishing a readily recognizable world-wide brand name is critical to attracting a larger player base and generating additional revenue. We believe that our bingo.com website has inherent value as a brand name and we intend to aggressively expand our player base by promoting that name. In targeted markets, we intend to pursue online and offline marketing strategies, promotional opportunities, and strategic alliances with arms length affiliate websites to make the Bingo.com website the leading entertainment destination for bingo on the Internet.  To date, we have entered into several affiliate deals, whereby they drive traffic to our website via links from their

 Page 7

websites.  During the year ended December 31, 2012 we continued our marketing campaigns to generate traffic to the website. We are continuing with these campaigns in 2013.

Marketing Strategy

Our goal is for the Bingo.com website to continue to be one of the most recognized and most visited bingo entertainment destinations on the Internet. We intend to continue building an Internet community consisting of a dedicated and loyal player base that will support our ability to generate both advertising and gaming revenues.

Advertising focused on promoting the Bingo.com website in targeted international markets through affiliate programs, strategic partnerships, and other promotional activities with a variety of companies is underway and we are working on expanding these relationships. This strategy is intended to further develop the growing database of registered players.

We also use our database of registered users to send targeted emails and other advertisements in order to encourage our subscribers to play. We offer special promotions and other offerings that bring additional users to our site such as the use of our email list to promote special events.

OPERATIONS

Employees

As of December 31, 2012, we had two full-time employees, not including temporary personnel, consultants, and independent contractors. We retain consultants to provide special expertise in developing strategy, marketing, software and technologies and outsource our development resources. None of our employees is represented by a labor union, and we believe that our relationship with our employees is good.

We are substantially dependent upon the continued services and performance of J. M. Williams, Chief Executive Officer and T. M. Williams, Executive Chairman. The loss of the services of these key individuals would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. We do not carry any key man life insurance on any individuals.

            Seasonality

We do not believe that seasonality has an effect on our traffic volumes or our revenue realization.

            Competition

We face competition primarily from other large bingo focused websites, e.g. Maria Bingo, Gala Bingo, Mecca Bingo, Jackpot joy, Sun Bingo and Foxy Bingo. We will continue to compete with these large sites as well as many other smaller offerings, and there can be no assurances that we will be successful in attracting players from these sites or generating new players from the overall bingo community that are not yet focused on playing bingo online.

            Need for Government Approval of Principal Products or Services and Effect of Existing or Probable Governmental Regulations on our

            Business

On September 30, 2006, the United States Congress passed the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act 2006 ("UIGEA"), which was signed into law by President Bush, on October 13, 2006. The legislation aimed to prohibit the funding of illegal online gambling to United States citizens and residents. This law had a major effect on our business and industry. Effective October 12, 2006, in response to the UIGEA, we sold our United States player database and related assets to an unrelated company.

As the Bingo.com website and cash-games are operated and supported by Unibet as part of the Unibet Partner Program, we are dependent upon Unibet obtaining, and keeping in good standing, the required licensing to offer Internet gambling to residents of targeted jurisdictions. Bingo.com is not required to hold any Internet gambling licences itself as our activities with respect to Internet gambling are restricted to promoting and marketing our website. We are presently focused on obtaining players

 Page 8

from jurisdictions where Internet gambling is regulated and considered legal. We are, therefore, indirectly subject to the Gambling Laws of these jurisdictions in that our activities may be affected if legal circumstances change and Unibet is, as a result, forced to restrict its activities appropriately.  As a result, a broad spectrum of our business may be affected, including how and what we market. As we look to expand into other markets, it is likely we will be subject to further local laws and regulations which may require other changes to the way we market our games and website.

Due to the increasing popularity and use of the Internet, it is possible that laws and regulations may be adopted, covering issues such as user privacy, defamation, pricing, taxation, content regulation, quality of products and services, and intellectual property ownership and infringement.  Such legislation could expose us to substantial liability as well as dampen the growth in use of the Internet, decrease the acceptance of the Internet as a communications and commercial medium, or require us to incur significant expenses in complying with any new regulations.  

The applicability to the Internet of existing laws governing issues such as gambling, property ownership, copyright, defamation, obscenity and personal privacy is uncertain.  We may be subject to claims that our services violate such laws.  New legislation or regulation in areas of the World where we market or the application of existing laws and regulations to the Internet could damage our business.  In addition, because legislation and other regulations relating to online games vary by jurisdiction, from state to state and from country to country, it is difficult for us to ensure that our players are accessing our portal from a jurisdiction where it is legal to play our games.  We therefore, cannot ensure that we will not be subject to enforcement actions as a result of this uncertainty and difficulty in controlling access.

In addition, our business may be indirectly affected by our suppliers or customers who may be subject to such legislation.  Increased regulation of the Internet may decrease the growth in the use of the Internet or hamper the development of Internet commerce and online entertainment, which could decrease the demand for our services, increase our cost of doing business or otherwise have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Costs and Effects of Compliance with Environmental Laws

Our company is in the business of marketing an entertainment and service based website designed to provide a variety of free bingo games and other forms of entertainment focused on the game of bingo.  To the best of our knowledge, no federal, state or local environmental laws are applicable to our business.

BRITISH COLUMBIA SECURITIES COMMISSION

Effective September 15, 2008, the British Columbia Securities Commission ("BCSC") issued rule 51-509 Issuers Quoted in the U.S. Over-the-Counter Markets. Rule 51 - 509 requires all Over-the-Counter Companies that have connections to British Columbia (BC) to comply with BC securities law and certain public disclosure requirements. The Company is deemed to have connection to BC due to the fact that administration and a director are located in BC. The Company has complied with rule 51-509 and registered and filed the necessary documents on SEDAR. The Company is deemed, due to the fact that there are less than 50% of the Company's shareholders located in BC, to be a foreign reporting issuer in accordance with NI 71-102 "Continuous Disclosure and Other Exemptions Relating to Foreign Issuers". Therefore the Company is only required to file what it files with the Securities and Exchange Commission on SEDAR.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION ABOUT GEOGRAPHIC AREAS

Since 2006, we have earned the majority of our revenue from cash games from players located in Europe. Prior to migration to the Unibet's Partner Program, the equipment of the Company to operate the website and the operations of the Company was located in Anguilla, Curacao, Netherlands Antilles, Malta, United Kingdom and Canada. Since the migration to the Unibet's Partner Program the website is hosted by Unibet and the remaining equipment to operate the Company and market the website are located in Anguilla, United Kingdom and Canada.

Our executive office is located in The Valley, Anguilla, British West Indies. We commenced the lease agreement on April 1, 2010, for a period of one year. Unless 3 month's notice is given it automatically renews for a future 3 months until notice is given. To date no notice has been given. The monthly rental is $250.

Our primary administrative facility is located in leased space in Vancouver, British Columbia.  During the year ended December 31, 2011, the lease was amended. The lease expires April 30, 2014. This facility comprises approximately 463 square feet. The monthly rental is approximately $1,549.

We operate a sales and marketing office in London, United Kingdom, where we rent space on a monthly basis from a shareholder who owns greater than 10% of the Company. Subsequent to the year ended December 31, 2012, the rent was increased to GBP5,000 per month.

We believe that these facilities will be adequate to meet our requirements for the near future and that suitable additional space will be available if needed. Other than described above, neither we, nor any of our subsidiaries presently own or lease any other property or real estate.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

We are not currently a party to any legal proceedings and were not a party to any other legal proceeding, during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012. We are currently not aware of any legal proceedings proposed to be initiated against us. However, from time-to-time, we may become subject to claims and litigation generally associated with any business venture.

We held our Annual Meeting of Stockholders in Anguilla on June 20, 2012, all matters were unanimously approved. There were no submissions of matters to a vote of security holders during the third and fourth quarter of 2012.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

The information contained in this Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation contains "forward looking statements." Actual results may materially differ from those projected in the forward looking statements as a result of certain risks and uncertainties set forth in this report. Although management believes that the assumptions made and expectations reflected in the forward looking statements are reasonable, there is no assurance that the underlying assumptions will, in fact, prove to be correct or that actual future results will not be materially different from the expectations expressed in this Annual Report. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and related Notes thereto included in Item 7 and with the Special Note regarding forward-looking statements included in Part I.

OVERVIEW

From 1999 to 2012, we have been focused on providing online bingo games over the Internet to players around the world. We began to experience revenue growth from the advertising contained in these games in fiscal 2000. In early 2005 we expanded our entertainment offering to include bingo games for money as well as soft games such as video poker, slots and hi-lo.  In 2010, Bingo.com joined the Unibet Partner Program, and is now focused on marketing its offering to players around the world. 

Ninety-seven percent of our revenue in 2012 was derived from gaming revenues and three percent from the sale of Internet advertising. We expect that in the future, gaming revenue, focused on bingo, will continue to contribute the majority of our total revenue. 

 Page 13

We have made a significant investment in the development of our website, purchase of domain name, branding, marketing, and maintaining operations.  As a result we have incurred significant losses since inception, and as of December 31, 2012, had an accumulated deficit of $15,965,824.

Moving forward, we will continue to control operating costs and expansion costs with the objective to operate profitably and efficiently.

The consolidated statement of operations data for the years ended December 31, 2012, and 2011, and the consolidated balance sheet data as of December 31, 2012, and 2011, are derived from our audited consolidated financial statements included in Item 7 of this report, which have been audited by Davidson and Company LLP, independent auditors. The consolidated statement of operations data for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009, and 2008, and the consolidated balance sheet data as of December 31, 2010, 2009, and 2008, are derived from audited consolidated financial statements not included in this report. The historical results are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected in any future period.

During the year ended December 31, 2010, Bingo.com joined the Unibet International Limited ("Unibet") Partner Program as a network operator of their multi-language and multi-currency bingo and casino system.  The Unibet Partner Program provides a complete solution to Bingo.com which includes gambling licenses, multi-language customer support, financial processing capabilities, website technology, bingo games, soft games, casino games and many other services required to operate an online gambling business.  Bingo.com players continue to play on the website www.bingo.com but now participate in rooms shared across the entire Unibet Partner program alongside players from Mariabingo.com, Bingo.se, and other white label partner sites. These combined games increase the gaming liquidity and create one of the largest and most international online gaming systems in operation.

Unibet is paid a commission based on a fixed percentage of the gaming revenues generated on the Bingo.com website.  This agreement is for a minimum of 2 years and will automatically extend for a further year unless written notice is given. Unibet will own, create and run the service offered and it is the Company's responsibility to drive traffic to the website.  Bingo.com continues to own the player data contained within the database of players that register at www.bingo.com.

In addition, as a member of the Partner Program, Bingo.com is no longer required to secure or maintain any online gambling licenses of its own as the Company is permitted to offer Internet gambling products to its players pursuant to Unibet's licenses in relevant jurisdictions.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following discussion of critical accounting policies is intended to supplement the Summary of Significant Accounting Policies presented as Note 2 to our audited consolidated financial statements presented elsewhere in this report.  Note 2 summarize the accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. The policies discussed below were selected because they require the more significant judgments and estimates in the preparation and presentation of our financial statements. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates these judgments and estimates, including whether there are any uncertainties as to compliance with the revenue recognition criteria described below, and recoverability of long-lived assets, as well as the assessment as to whether there are contingent assets and liabilities that should be recognized or disclosed for the consolidated financial statements to fairly present the information required to be set forth therein. We base our estimates on historical experience, as well as other events and assumptions that are believed to be reasonable at the time. Actual results could differ from these estimates under different conditions.

Revenue Recognition

The Company generates the majority of its revenue from gaming revenue. Gaming revenues have been recognized on the basis of total dollars wagered, less commissions on all games, less all winnings payable to players.

 Page 14

Advertising revenues have been recognized as the advertising campaign or impressions and clicks are made on the website and when collection of the amounts are reasonably assured. Cash received in advance of the advertising campaigns or impressions and clicks are recorded under unearned revenue.

Impairment of Long-lived Assets

Management evaluates long-lived assets for impairment in accordance with the provisions of ASC 360 Property, Plant and Equipment and ASC 350, Intangibles-Goodwill and Others.  These assets comprise mainly property and equipment, other assets and the bingo.com domain name. The impairment review is performed by management, whenever events and circumstances indicate that the assets may be impaired. In performing this review, we estimate the future net cash flows from the assets and compare this amount to the carrying value. If this review indicates the carrying value may not be recoverable, impairment losses are measured and recognized based on the difference between the estimated discounted cash flows over the remaining life of the assets and the assets' carrying value. Changes in our future net cash flow estimates may impact our assessment as to whether a particular long-lived asset has been impaired. 

SOURCES OF REVENUE AND REVENUE RECOGNITION

We generate our revenue from the following:

-   Marketing our website to drive players to our website which under the Unibet Partner Program provides Internet games for money. We recognize revenue on this basis based on the total dollars wagered, including bonus wagered, less commissions on all games less all winnings payable to players.

-    The sale of advertising on our website. We recognize revenue on this basis based on the amount paid to us upon the delivery and fulfillment of advertising in the form email and newsletters, provided that the collection of the resulting receivable is probable.

SUPPLEMENTARY FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Quarterly Results of Operations

The following tables present our unaudited consolidated quarterly results of operations for each of our last eight quarters.  This data has been derived from unaudited consolidated financial statements that have been prepared on the same basis as the annual audited consolidated financial statements and, in our opinion, include all normal recurring adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of such information. These unaudited quarterly results should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements, included in Item 7 of this report.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Years Ended December 31, 2012 and 2011

            Revenue

Total revenue increased to $1,765,827 for the year ended December 31, 2012, an increase of 25% over revenue of $1,416,658 for the same period in the prior year. Gaming revenue increased to $1,721,135 for the year ended December 31, 2012, an increase of 27% over gaming revenue of $1,349,953 for the same period in the prior year. This increase compared to the prior year is due to an increase in players as a result of increased marketing. Advertising Revenue decreased to $44,693 for the year ended December 31, 2012, a decrease of 33% over revenue of $66,705 for the same period in the prior year. During the first quarter of fiscal 2010 the Company suspended sales of new advertising. 

 Page 16

            Selling and marketing expenses

Selling and marketing expenses increased to $1,217,416 for the year ended December 31, 2012, an increase of 13% over sales and marketing expenses of $1,074,571 in the prior year. Selling and marketing expenses principally include costs for television marketing, Search Engine Optimization expenses, prizes for our players and other bonuses and incentives offered to gaming players.  The increase in selling and marketing expenses for the year ended December 31, 2012, compared to fiscal 2011 is due to a larger media budget in fiscal 2012 to drive additional players to the website.

We expect to continue to incur sales and marketing expenses to increase traffic and, consequently, deposits to our web portal. These costs will include affiliate commissions, salaries, advertising media purchases, and other promotional expenses intended to increase our subscriber base and improve gaming revenue. There can be no assurances that these expenditures will result in increased traffic or significant additional revenue.

            General and administrative expenses

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of premises costs for our office, legal and professional fees, and other general corporate and office expenses. General and administrative expenses decreased to $230,849 for the year ended December 31, 2012, a 10% decrease over costs of $257,275 for the previous year. General and administrative expenses have decreased in comparison to the prior year due to the managements efforts to reduce overhead costs particularly rental expenses.

We expect to continue to incur general and administrative expenses to support the business, and there can be no assurances that we will be able to generate sufficient revenue to cover these expenses.

Salaries, wages, consultants and benefits

Salaries, wages, consultants and benefits decreased to $339,943 during the year ended December 31, 2012, a decrease of 54% over costs of $733,581 for the previous year. The majority of the Company's salaries, wages, consultants and benefits are incurred in Canadian Dollars. Due to the migration to the Unibet Partner Program, we no longer required certain staff so we have reduced staff and paid out severance packages in the first quarter of fiscal 2011.

Depreciation and amortization

Equipment is depreciated using the declining balance method over the useful lives of the assets, ranging from three to five years.  Depreciation decreased to $4,755 during the year ended December 31, 2012, a decrease of 39% over depreciation of $7,774 during the prior year. This decrease in depreciation and amortization compared to fiscal 2011, is due to the aging of the Company's equipment and the disposal of obsolete equipment during 2011.

Stock based Compensation

During the year ended December 31, 2006, the Company adopted ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation, which requires us to expense stock options granted. Stock based compensation increased to $60,005 during the year ended December 31, 2012, an increase over stock based compensation of $nil during the prior year. This increase in stock based compensation during the year ended December 31, 2012, is due to the extension of the terms of the options expiring in 2012. There were no stock options granted during the year ended December 31, 2012 and 2011.

Other income and expenses

During the year ended December 31, 2012, we made foreign exchange gains of $52,155 compared to foreign exchange losses of $10,959 in the prior year. These gains are due to the exchange rate movements of the US Dollar compared to the Pound Sterling and the Canadian Dollar.

 Page 17

During the year ended December 31, 2012, we received interest income of $1,258, a decrease of 56% compared to interest income of $2,887 in the prior year. The interest income is received from bank term deposits from investing our cash. The decrease in interest income is due to the reduction in cash due to the expenditures during fiscal 2012, especially on marketing campaigns.

Income taxes

The Company incurred income tax expense of $1,008 during the year ended December 31, 2012, in relation to profits earned in its subsidiaries in different jurisdictions compared to income tax expense of $3,692 in the prior year. During the year ended December 31, 2005, the Bingo.com, Inc. merged with its subsidiary Bingo.com, Ltd. in Anguilla, British West Indies. Anguilla is a zero tax jurisdiction.

            Net loss and loss per share

We ended the year ended December 31, 2012, with a net loss of ($46,235) a basic and diluted loss per share of ($0.00), compared to prior year's net loss and loss per share of ($689,016), and ($0.00), respectively. The decrease in net loss for the year ended December 31, 2012, compared to the prior year, is due to the increase in revenues.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We had cash of $876,004 and positive working capital of $1,640,713 at December 31, 2012. This compares to cash of $787,524 and working capital of $1,058,631 at December 31, 2011. During the year ended December 31, 2012, Bingo.com, Ltd. completed two private placements offering 1,000,000 shares at $0.45 per share each.  Total proceeds of these offering were $900,000.

During the year ended December 31, 2012, we used cash of $475,407 in operating activities compared to using cash of $603,853 in the prior year.

Net cash generated by financing activities was $900,000 in the year ended December 31, 2012, which compares to cash generated by financing activity of $nil in 2011. This increase in cash generated by financing activity is due to the cash raised from two private placements during the year ended December 31, 2012.

Cash of $336,113 was used in investing activities in fiscal 2012, compared to cash used in investing activities of $5,007 in the prior year. This increase in cash used in investing activities is due to the development of the social bingo game and website.

Our future capital requirements will depend on a number of factors, including costs associated with marketing of our Web portal, the success and acceptance of gaming operations and the possible acquisition of complementary businesses, products and technologies.

            Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

We did not have any Off Balance sheet arrangements for the year ended December 31, 2012 and 2011.

AUDIT COMMITTEE

Our audit committee consists of four directors and reports to the Board of Directors. The audit committee meets regularly throughout the year and met with the independent auditors on March 27, 2013, and approved the financials statements for the year ended December 31, 2012.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of

Bingo.com, Ltd. and subsidiaries

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Bingo.com, Ltd. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2012 and 2011 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011. The Company's management is responsible for these financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.  As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company generated negative cash flows from operating activities during the past year. The Company has an accumulated deficit of $15,965,824 for the year ended December 31, 2012. This raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011

1.    Introduction:

Nature of business

Bingo.com, Ltd. (the "Company") was incorporated on January 12, 1987, under the laws of the State of Florida as Progressive General Lumber Corp. On January 22, 1999, the Company changed its name to Bingo.com, Inc. On April 7, 2005, Bingo.com, Inc. completed a merger with its wholly- owned subsidiary Bingo.com, Ltd. The surviving corporation of the merger is Bingo.com, Ltd. which is domiciled in Anguilla, British West Indies.  All of the outstanding common shares of Bingo.com, Ltd. were registered by Bingo.com, Inc. and Bingo.com, Ltd. under an S-4 registration statement dated March 3, 2005.  The S-4 registration statement became effective on March 8, 2005. The principal reason for Bingo.com, Inc.'s merger with its subsidiary Bingo.com, Ltd. was to facilitate Bingo.com, Inc.'s reincorporation under the International Business Companies Act of Anguilla, B.W.I. Anguilla, B.W.I. is a corporate tax- free jurisdiction.  Effective Thursday, April 7, 2005, the shares of Bingo.com, Ltd. began trading under the new ticker symbol "BNGOF".

The Company is in the business of marketing games and entertainment based on the game of bingo through its Internet portal, www.bingo.com and earns revenue from selling advertising and providing games of chance to its registered subscribers.

During the year ended December 31, 2010, we migrated to the Unibet Partner Program and changed from providing and operating games to focusing on marketing and driving players to our website www.bingo.com. Our players will continue to play games on our website www.bingo.com but now these games are offered by Unibet.

Continuing operations

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, which presumes the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the normal course of operations.  The application of the going concern basis is dependent upon the Company achieving profitable operations to generate sufficient cash flows to fund continued operations, or, in the absence of adequate cash flows from operations, obtaining additional financing.  The Company has reported losses from operations for the year ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, and has an accumulated deficit of $15,965,824 as at December 31, 2012. This raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

In view of the matters described in the preceding paragraph, recoverability of a major portion of the recorded asset amounts and settlement of the liability amounts shown in the accompanying balance sheets is dependent upon continued operations of the Company, which in turn is dependent upon the Company's ability to succeed in its future operations. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue in existence.

BINGO.COM, LTD. and subsidiaries

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011

1.    Introduction: (Continued)

Management continues to review operations in order to identify additional strategies designed to generate cash flow, improve the Company's financial position, and enable the timely discharge of the Company's obligations.  If management is unable to identify sources of additional cash flow in the short term, it may be required to further reduce or limit operations.

2.    Summary of significant accounting policies:

(a)  Basis of presentation:

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("US GAAP") applicable to annual financial information and with the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.  The financial statements include the accounts of the Company's wholly-owned subsidiaries, English Bay Office Management Limited (registered in British Columbia, Canada), Bingo.com N.V. (registered in Curacao, Netherlands Antilles), Coral Reef Marketing Inc. (registered in Anguilla), Bingo.com (Antigua) Inc., Bingo.com (Wyoming) Inc., Bingo Acquisition Corp, and the 99% owned subsidiary, Bingo.com (UK) plc. (registered in the United Kingdom). All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.

(b)  Use of estimates:

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and recognized revenues and expenses for the reporting periods.

Significant areas requiring the use of estimates include the valuation of long-lived assets, the valuation of shares issued for the purchase of the remaining Domain Name Purchase payments, the collectibility of accounts receivable and the valuation of deferred tax assets.  Actual results may differ significantly from these estimates.

(c)  Revenue recognition:

Gaming revenues have been recognized on the basis of total dollars wagered, less commissions on all games, less all winnings payable to players.

Advertising revenues have been recognized as the advertising campaign or impressions and clicks are made on the website and when collection of the amounts are reasonably assured. Cash received in advance of the advertising campaigns or impressions and clicks are recorded under unearned revenue.

BINGO.COM, LTD. and subsidiaries

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011

2.    Summary of significant accounting policies: (continued)

(d)  Foreign currency:

The consolidated financial statements are presented in United States dollars, the functional currency of the Company. The Company accounts for foreign currency transactions and translation of foreign currency financial statements under Statement ASC 830, Foreign Currency Matters. Transaction amounts denominated in foreign currencies are translated at exchange rates prevailing at the transaction dates. Carrying values of monetary assets and liabilities are adjusted at each balance sheet date to reflect the exchange rate at that date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate on the original transaction date.

Gains and losses from restatement of foreign currency monetary and non-monetary assets and liabilities are included in net income. Revenues and expenses are translated at the rates of exchange prevailing on the dates such items are recognized in earnings.

(e)  Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and, on occasion, short term investments. The Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with a remaining maturity of less than three months at the time of purchase as cash equivalents. As at December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company had no cash equivalents.

(f)  Accounts receivable:

Trade and other accounts receivable are reported at face value less any provisions for uncollectible accounts considered necessary. Accounts receivable includes receivables from payment processors and trade receivables from customers. The Company estimates doubtful accounts on an item-by-item basis and includes over-aged accounts as part of allowance for doubtful accounts, which are generally ones that are ninety-days overdue.  Bad debt expense, for the year ended December 31, 2012, was $nil (2011 - $nil). A provision for doubtful accounts in relation to the sale of US players and accounts receivable (Note 3 and Note 4) of $38,736 (2011 - $150,000) has been allowed for in these financial statements.

(g)  Equipment:

Equipment is recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided for annually on the declining balance method over the following periods :

                                    Equipment and computers                      3 years

                        Furniture and fixtures                             5 years

Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expenses as incurred. Major improvements are capitalized. Gains and losses on disposition of equipment are included in income or expenses as realized.

2.    Summary of significant accounting policies: (continued)

 

(h)  Software Development Costs: 

Software development costs incurred in the research and development of new software products and enhancements to existing software products for external use are expensed as incurred until technological feasibility has been established. After technological feasibility is established, any software development costs are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated economic life of the related product. The Company performs an annual review of the estimated economic life and the recoverability of such capitalized software costs. If a determination is made that capitalized amounts are not recoverable based on the estimated cash flows to be generated from the applicable software, any remaining capitalized amounts are written off. Although the Company believes that its approach to estimates and judgments as described herein is reasonable, actual results could differ and the Company may be exposed to increases or decreases in revenue that could be material.

(i)   Advertising:

The Company expenses the cost of advertising in the period in which the advertising space or airtime is used. Advertising costs charged to selling and marketing expenses in 2012 totaled $1,102,451 (2011 - $992,616). 

(j)   Stock-based compensation:

The Company recognizes all stock-based compensation as an expense in the financial statements and that such cost be measured at the fair value of the award.

The fair value of each option grant has been estimated on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions:

 

 

2012

 

2011

Expected dividend yield

 

 

Expected stock price volatility

 

114%

 

Weighted average volatility

 

114%

 

Risk-free interest rate

 

0.88%

 

Expected life of options

 

0.5 - 1 years

 

Forfeiture rate

 

0%

 

(k) Impairment of long-lived assets and long-lived assets to be disposed of:

The Company accounts for long-lived assets in accordance with the provisions of ASC 360, Property, Plant and Equipment and ASC 350, Intangibles-Goodwill and Others. During the years presented, the only long-lived assets reported on the Company's consolidated balance sheet are equipment, other assets, and domain name rights.  These provisions require that long-lived assets and certain identifiable recorded intangibles be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.  Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset.

If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets.  Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount and the fair value less costs to sell.

(l)   Income taxes:

The Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes.  Under this method, current income taxes are recognized for the estimated income taxes payable for the current period.  Deferred income taxes are provided based on the estimated future tax effects of temporary differences between financial statement carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, as well as the benefit of losses available to be carried forward to future years for tax purposes.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates that are expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered and settled.  The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in operations in the period that includes the enactment date.  A valuation allowance is recorded for deferred tax assets when it is not more likely than not that such future tax assets will be realized.

(m) Net (loss) income per share:

ASC 260, "Earnings Per Share", requires presentation of basic earnings per share ("Basic EPS") and diluted earnings per share ("Diluted EPS"). Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing earnings (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution, using the treasury stock method, that could occur if outstanding options or warrants were exercised and converted into common stock. In computing diluted earnings per share, the treasury stock method assumes that outstanding options and warrants are exercised and the proceeds are used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period.

Options and warrants will have a dilutive effect under the treasury stock method only when the average market price of the common stock during the period exceeds the exercise price of the options and warrants. In periods where losses are reported, the weighted average number of common shares outstanding excludes common stock equivalents because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. A total of 2,145,000 (2011 - 2,345,000) stock options were excluded as at December 31, 2012.

(n)  Domain name and intangible assets:

The Company has capitalized the cost of the purchase of the domain name Bingo.com and was amortizing the cost over five years from the date of commencement of operations. In 2002, the Company suspended the amortization of the domain name cost in accordance with ASC 350, where companies are no longer required to amortize indefinite life assets but instead test the indefinite intangible asset for impairment at least annually. The capitalized amount is based on the net present value of the minimum payments permitted under the terms of the purchase agreement. The domain name is tested for impairment by comparing the future cash flows of the domain name with its carrying value. The Company determined that as a result of level 3 unobservable inputs in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, that the fair value of the domain name exceeded the carrying value and therefore no impairment existed for the years presented.

    (o)  New accounting pronouncements and changes in accounting policies:

In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-04, "Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirement in U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards" ("IFRS") ("ASU 2011-04").  The amendments in ASU 2011-04 do not modify the requirements for when fair value measurements apply; rather, they generally represent clarifications on how to measure and disclose fair value under ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement.  

For U.S. GAAP, most of the changes are clarifications of existing guidance or wording changes to align with IFRS 13, Fair Value Measurement.   ASU 2011-04 is effective on a prospective basis for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011, with early adoption not permitted for public entities.  In the period of adoption, a reporting entity will be required to disclose a change, if any, in valuation technique and related inputs that result from applying ASU 2011-04 and to quantify the total effect, if practicable.  The Company has evaluated the impact of the adoption of ASU 2011-04 on its financial position, results of operations and disclosures. Adoption of this standard does not have a

 material impact on the financial statements.

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, "Presentation of Comprehensive Income" ("ASU 2011-05").  The objective of this update is to improve the comparability, consistency, and transparency of financial reporting and to increase the prominence of items reported in other comprehensive income. To increase the prominence of items reported in other comprehensive income and to facilitate convergence of GAAP and IFRS. The amendments in ASU 2011-05 require entities to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. Additionally, the amendments in ASU 2011-05 require an entity to present on the face of the financial statements reclassification adjustments for items that are reclassified from other comprehensive income to net income in the statement(s) where the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income are presented. ASU 2011-05 is effective retrospectively for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011, with early adoption permitted.  The Company has adopted ASU 2011-05 in its financial statements and is reflected in the Statement of Operations.

In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-08 "Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Goodwill for Impairment," which amends existing guidance by giving an entity the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If this is the case, a more detailed two-step goodwill impairment test will need to be performed which is used to identify potential goodwill impairments and to measure the amount of goodwill impairment losses to be recognized, if any. ASU 2011-08 will be effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011, with early adoption permitted. The Company has evaluated the impact of the adoption of ASU 2011-08 on its financial position, results of operations and disclosures. Adoption of this standard does not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements.

In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-11, "Balance Sheet (Topic 210), Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities".   The guidance in this update requires the Company to disclose both gross information and net information about both financial instruments and transactions eligible for offset in the Balance Sheet and transactions subject to an agreement similar to a master netting arrangement. The amendment is designed to enhance disclosures about the financial instruments and derivatives, which will allow the users of an entity's financial statements to evaluate the effect or potential effect of netting arrangements on an entity's financial position. The scope includes derivatives, repurchase agreements and security borrowings. The pronouncement is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013 with retrospective application for all comparative periods presented.  The Company's adoption of the new standard is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial position or

results of operations.

In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-12, Comprehensive Income.  This Update defers changes in Update 2011-05 that relate to how, when, and where reclassification adjustments are presented. The amendments are being made to allow the Board time to redeliberate whether to present on the face of the financial statements the effects of reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income on the components of net income and the other comprehensive income for all periods presented. While the Board is considering the operational concerns about the presentation requirements for reclassification adjustments and the needs of financial statement users for additional information about reclassification adjustments, entities should continue to report reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income consistent with the presentation requirements in effect before Update 2011-05. All other requirements in Update 2011-05 are not affected by this Update. Public entities should apply these requirements for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company has adopted ASU No. 2011-12 during the year ended December 31, 2012, and is presented in the financial statements in the Statement of Operations.

In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-02, Intangibles- Goodwill or Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Living Tangible Assets for Impairment. ASU 2012-02 simplifies the guidance for testing the decline in the realizable value (impairment) of indefinite-lived intangible assets other than goodwill by allowing an organization the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform the quantitative impairment test. An organization electing to perform a qualitative assessment is no longer required to calculate the fair value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset unless the organization determines, based on a qualitative assessment, that it is "more likely than not" that the asset is impaired. The amendments in this Update are effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of ASU 2012-02 is not expected to have a material impact on our results of operations or our financial position.

In October 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-04, Technical Corrections and Improvements. ASU 2012-04 contains amendments to clarify the ASC, correct unintended application of guidance, or make minor improvements to the ASC that are not expected to have a significant effect on current accounting practice or create a significant administrative cost to most entities. Additionally, the amendments are intended to make the ASC easier to understand and the fair valve measurement guidance easier to apply by eliminating inconsistencies and providing needed clarifications. The amendments that do not have transition guidance were effective upon issuance. The amendments that are subject to the transition guidance will be effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2012.

(o)  New accounting pronouncements and changes in accounting policies: (Continued)

The adoption of ASU 2012-04 is not expected to have a material impact on our results of operations or our financial position.

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-02, Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income   (ASU 2013-02), which requires an entity to provide information about the amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by component. In addition, an entity is required to present, either on the face of the statement where net income is presented or in the notes, significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by the respective line items of net income but only if the amount reclassified is required under U.S. GAAP to be reclassified to net income in its entirety in the same reporting period. For other amounts that are not required under U.S. GAAP to be reclassified in their entirety to net income, an entity is required to cross-reference to other disclosures required under U.S. GAAP that provide additional details about those amounts.  For public entities, the amendments are effective prospectively for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2012.

(p)  Financial instruments:

(i)  Fair values:

The fair value of accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and accounts payable and accrued liabilities - related party approximate their financial statement carrying amounts due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.  Cash is carried at fair value using a level 1 fair value measurement.

In general, fair values determined by Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Fair values determined by Level 2 inputs utilize data points that are observable such as quoted prices, interest rates and yield curves. Fair values determined by Level 3 inputs are unobservable data points for the asset or liability, and included situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset.  The Company's cash was measured using Level 1 inputs.

(ii)  Foreign currency risk:

The Company operates internationally, which gives rise to the risk that cash flows may be adversely impacted by exchange rate fluctuations.  The Company has not entered into any forward exchange contracts or other derivative instrument to hedge against foreign exchange risk.

7.  Domain name rights and intangible asset:

The rights to use the domain name bingo.com were acquired in January of 1999 for a cash payment of $200,000 and the issuance of 500,000 shares of common stock of the Company at a value of $2.00 per share. The agreement was signed with Bingo, Inc., an unrelated party at the date of signing of the agreement. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company is required to make quarterly domain name purchase payments to the vendor based on 4% of annual gross revenue (as defined in the agreement), with total minimum payments of $1,100,000 in the first three years, including the initial cash payment, required over the 99 year period ending December 31, 2098. These minimum payment commitments were completed on June 30, 2002. During the year ended December 31, 2002, the agreement was amended so that the remaining domain name purchase payments to the vendor are made monthly, based on 4% of the preceding month's gross revenue. During the year ended December 31, 2010, the Company purchased the remaining Domain Name payments for $900,000, with the issuance of 6,000,000 common shares of the Company, at a value of $0.15 per share.

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those differences become deductible.

Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets.

      Major customers

For the year ended December 31, 2012, there was no single player on the gaming site who had wagered more than 10% of the total gaming revenue. The Company is reliant on Unibet to provide contracted services pursuant to its Partner Program. These services include the supply and operation of the games (i.e. Bingo and Slots); the development and maintenance of the website, customer support to our players playing on our website www.bingo.com, processing all deposits and collection of those funds and processing all withdrawal requests. The Company has a receivable from Unibet of $360,284 as at December 31, 2012 (December 31, 2011 - $133,363).

During the year ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company offered limited advertising. Therefore there were no advertising sales representing more than 10% of the total sales.

The Company currently maintains a substantial portion of its day-to-day operating cash balances at financial institutions.  At December 31, 2012, the Company had total cash balances of $876,004 (2011 - $787,524) at financial institutions, where $491,300 (2011 - $436,719) is in excess of federally insured limits. 

The Company has concentrations of credit risk with respect to accounts receivable, the majority of its accounts receivable are concentrated geographically in the United Kingdom amongst a small number of customers.

As of December 31, 2012, the Company had one customer, totaling $360,284 who accounted for greater than 10% of the total accounts receivable.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE.

On February 4, 2010, we engaged Davidson & Company LLP, as its independent registered public accounting firm, to audit our financial statements. The decision to engage Davidson & Company LLP was approved by our Board of Directors at a Board meeting called for such purpose.

There have not been any changes in accountants for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011.

ITEM 9A.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(a)        Management's responsibility

Our management acknowledges its responsibility for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting of the Company.

(b)        Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.

Our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the disclosure controls and procedures of the Company within 90 days prior to the date of this report, and found them to be operating efficiently and effectively to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us under the general rules and regulations promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified by rules and regulations of the SEC.

These disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. However our management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and our management necessarily is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Our internal control system was designed to provide reasonable assurance to the Company's management and board of directors regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Our management assessed the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012. In making this assessment, it used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO") in Internal Control - Integrated Framework. Based on our assessment, we believe that, as of December 31, 2012, the Company's internal control over financial reporting is effective based on those criteria.

(c)        Changes in internal controls.

There were no significant changes in our internal controls or other factors that could significantly affect our internal controls during the year ended December 31, 2012, and to the date of filing this annual report.

Our Board is authorized to construe and interpret the provisions of the Stock Option Plans, to select employees, directors and consultants to whom options will be granted, to determine the terms and conditions of options and, with the consent of the grantee, to amend the terms of any outstanding options.

The 1999 stock option plan may be granted to employees and to such other persons who are not employees as determined by the 1999 stock option plan administrator (the "Administrator").  In determining the number of shares of our Common Stock subject to each option granted under the 1999 stock option plan, consideration is given to the present and potential contribution by such person to the success of the Company.  The exercise price is determined by the Administrator, provided that the exercise price for any covered employee (as that term is defined for the purposes of Section 162(m) (3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 as amended (the "Code"), may not be less than the fair market value per share of the Common Stock at the date of grant by the Administrator.  Each option is for a term not in excess of ten years except in the case of the death of an optionee, in which case the option is exercisable for a maximum of twelve months thereafter, or in the case of an optionee ceasing to be a participant under the 1999 stock option plan for any reason other than cause or death, in which case the option is exercisable for a maximum of 30 days thereafter.  The 1999 stock option plan does not provide for the granting of financial assistance, whether by way of a loan, guarantee or otherwise, by us in connection with any purchase of shares of Common Stock from the Company.

Our Board determines the terms and provisions of each option granted under the Stock Option Plans, including the exercise price, vesting schedule, repurchase provisions, rights of first refusal and form of payment.  In the case of incentive options, the exercise price cannot be less than 100% (or 110%, in the case of incentive options granted to any grantee who owns stock representing more than 10% of the combined voting power of the Company or any of our parent or subsidiary corporations) of the fair market value of our common stock on the date the option is

granted.  The exercise price of non-qualified stock options shall not be less than 85% of the fair market value of our common stock.  The exercise price of options intended to qualify as performance-based compensation for purposes of Code Section 162(m) shall not be less than 100% of the fair market value of the stock.  The aggregate fair market value of the common stock with respect to any incentive stock options that are exercisable for the first time by an eligible employee in any calendar year may not exceed $100,000.

The term of options under the Stock Option Plans will be determined by our Board; however, the term of an incentive stock option may not be for more than ten years (or five years in the case of incentive stock options granted to any grantee who owns stock representing more than 10% of the combined voting power of the Company or any of our parent or subsidiary corporations).  Where the award agreement permits the exercise of an option for a period of time following the recipient's termination of service with us, disability or death, that option will terminate to the extent not exercised or purchased on the last day of the specified period or the last day of the original term of the option, whichever occurs first.

If a third party acquires the Company through the purchase of all or substantially all of our assets, a merger or other business combination, except as otherwise provided in an individual award agreement, all unexercised options will terminate unless assumed by the successor corporation.
