BBO is evolving, and we’re always striving to make it better. You’re a key part of this evolution, and we’d like to have you by our side as we continue improving the experience for everyone.
Making changes to something as beloved as BBO is not easy. It’s a balance between progress and familiarity, moving forward while keeping BBO comfortable and easy to use for all players. This is where you come in. We need volunteers who understand that not everything will be perfect from the start. While we’re working on new features, some things might not work as expected or could feel a little rough around the edges.
That’s why we’re looking for players who are comfortable with the idea of early testing and are willing to provide their honest feedback to help us improve. If at any point you feel the Beta isn’t for you, you can easily opt out with no hard feelings.
By joining the BBO Beta Program, you’ll get an early look at upcoming features and have the chance to share your feedback directly with our team. Your input will help us refine what works and ensure BBO continues to feel right for both long-time players and newcomers.
To get started, simply express your interest in the Beta Program by completing the form below.
Please note that participation is entirely optional, and you can opt out anytime if the experience isn’t right for you. Registration for the Beta Program will close on Wednesday, November 12, 2025.
This form is currently closed for submissions.
I'd be interest in helping. Especially in testing and giving suggestions for GIB. There some simple tweeks you can make that'll really improve the robots A LOT. For example just sinalling on defense (UDCA perfered for advanced, std for begginers). Some system improvements would be nice too.
Great, thank you for your interest! Please fill out the form, and our team will take it from there. 🙂
good manners have (almost) vanished on BBO few say hello on arrival or thanks on leaving.
I have in my profile NO profile NO game. Why does BBO allow a registration WITHOUT a full profile, including information about your bidding system?
Happy to try to help. Been around a long time.
Please add back the ability to save all hands at once.
Other requests:
In deal archive have the ability to sort the folders manually and to be able to search for a folder.
i am so appreciative of your site!!! I've played here nightly for years! For free! I'll help in any way I can! "Except by paying!" (I'm 80 years old and survive on gruel, porridge, and luck.) TY, TY, TY! I've always wanted to TY! And here I can! I wish you every success in your redesign(?) and happiness in your lives. You provide a wonderful, humane service to your elder community of bridge players! I bid you a royal flush!
Bill
Thanks for your kind words, Bill 🙂
I need the rules of BBO EXPRESS individual....to avoid loosing points...even when not playing it becomes mysterious....
Fix the Swiss team players where they are all listed instead of repeating the 3rd player in place of the 4th. Have more Swiss team games for those of us who prefer them. Monitor who plays/watches more accurately by Player ACBL number so that there are not too many different ways to cheat and "spy." TDs should not be allowed more than their TD and one personal name. They do this by using the same ACBL number with different names. Disgusting to the ones who do not do this.
Thanks for your suggestion, Green, we'll note this down. 🙂
What kind of rules, VE?
2 things I would like to see as improvements:
1. Please do something to be able to save filters and everyone to hVe the possibility to set a filter as default.
2. I'm not the best human player, but I'm expecting to play with a BBO robot which learns from mistakes faster than a human. I didn't see you have come up with updated versions of robots or with a list of the improvements.
Thanks,
Thank you for your feedback, Mcretu, we'll take note of these 🙂
I’m interested in participating but usually I teach on BBO tables , do you think that could I’ll be able to teach at the same time use the beta version?
faster removal of non-responsive players would be nice - you never know if someone is still 'there' or not
We'll note this down, Kevin, thanks 🙂
I'm a Canadian and since Trump's threats, I have, among a number of my friends, agreed not to buy more BBO $ until BBO allows payment in Cdn $, so that, once my current moneys runs out, I will no longer be able to play in competitive games. Real Bridge accepts Cdn $ why doesn't BBO.
I concur with your request. BBO is not an American company but it does require US dollars. I do not know what sort of expense it could involve to accept Canadian currency or for that matter, other currencies. PayPal seems to include currency exchange services, so perhaps that is a possibility. I apologize for American politicians and their treatment of Canada.
We'll take note of this and pass it along for the team to discuss. 🙂
This is truly a timely and beautiful project. It's something I've been thinking about ever since I first started playing BBO. I've always wondered how I could be a part of BBO and work with them. Now I have this opportunity. Thank you so much. I'm sure I'll definitely be useful to BBO.
Thank you, Karacayli 🙂
Buy out Cuebids.com and use their Bidding Practice tools on BBO.
should we? 🤔
how about finding a way to extend the BBO ranking system to other games than the pay to play . start a ranking that gives a better indicator , maybe like us chess federation or acbl
We'll think about it 🙂
I am hoping to see improvements in the practice area.
Wish us luck!
As a (till) practicing attorney, I look foreword to be of service to BBO and the bridge community at large.
Good to hear that, Candice, hope you're joining the beta program 🙂
