In the crystal structure of the title monohydrate salt, [ZnCl(C12H8N2)2][BiCl4(C12H8N2)]·H2O, the ionic components are linked into three-dimensional supramolecular channels by five pairs of C-H...Cl hydrogen bonds and [pi]-[pi] stacking interactions with an interplanar distance of 3.643 (2) Å. The solvent water molecules are lodged in the channels.
