Free Printable Employee Appreciation Bingo Cards
During appreciation week, this card turns gratitude into a group project. Some squares are things to do, like thanking a teammate or writing a note, and others are things to spot around the workplace, like a team lunch or a banner in the lobby. Staff mark each square as they complete or see it and hand in a finished line for a prize.
How to play employee appreciation bingo
- Set the number of players, then press Print or save as PDF. Each player gets a different card.
- Call items in random order with the built-in caller, or use the printed call list.
- Players mark each called square. The first to complete a row, column or diagonal shouts "Bingo!"
Tip: Post one oversized card in the break room in addition to the personal ones, and let the whole team fill it together for a shared reward such as a catered breakfast. Match the event squares to what you have actually planned for the week.

Questions and answers
Are the bingo cards really free?
Yes. You can print up to 10 unique cards per game at no cost, as often as you like, without creating an account. The optional Unlimited Pass is for larger groups.
How do I save the cards as a PDF?
Press "Print or save as PDF". In the print window choose "Save as PDF" as the printer. On a phone, use the share or print option in the preview that opens.
Is every card different?
Yes. Each card is shuffled separately from your list, so players cannot all win at the same time. The more items your list has beyond the number of squares, the more the cards differ.
Can I use my own words?
Yes. Replace the list with your own words or phrases, one per line. A 5×5 card with a free space needs at least 24 items, a 4×4 card needs 16 and a 3×3 card needs 8.
What paper should I use?
Normal printer paper works. Card stock lasts longer if you plan to reuse the cards. The layout fits both US Letter and A4.
