About Bingo in TexasBingo has been available in Texas since 1982. According to the constitutional amendment that made bingo legal in Texas, all bingo proceeds must be used for charitable purposes. Originally bingo in Texas was administered by the Comptroller of Public Accounts, but was later moved under the purview of the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission. In 1994 the administration of Texas bingo was transferred to the Texas Lottery Commission, who continue to handle all bingo issues in the state. Anyone running a bingo hall in the state of Texas must be bonded and licensed by the state of Texas in order to run a bingo operation. 35% of all proceeds must be given to charity in order for the bingo hall to be in compliance with the Bingo Enabling Act. You must be at least 18 years old to play bingo in Texas. Since 1982, bingo halls in Texas have distributed over $796 million to over 1290 charities.
