Coral

About Coral

Coral is a name that has been involved in the UK betting industry for a staggering 100 years. After more than 30 years as a trackside bookie at horse and greyhound races, Joe Coral opened the first Coral shop in 1961, as soon as it became legal to do so. By the late 1970s the Coral Leisure Group had expanded to preside over a huge (but still land based) range of venues. Coral went online in 1999 on the back of its purchase of Eurobet.

These days Coral is part of the huge Entain iGaming empire, following a series of mergers and acquisitions which saw the Coral brand acquired first by Gala in 2005, then by Ladbrokes in 2016, and finally by what was then GVC in 2018. Along the way and prior to rebranding as Entain, GVC also acquired Bwin.party (the owners of Foxy Bingo and Foxy Games) in 2016 and Cozy Games (a bingo software supplier that used to operate more than 100 white label bingo sites) in 2017.

Bingo at Coral

Up until 2020, Coral Bingo was a Virtue Fusion bingo site. Entain then took the bold step of moving it on to their “new” proprietary bingo platform, which was actually a massively upgraded and enhanced version of the Cozy bingo software they bought earlier and had been testing and developing at Foxy Bingo. With Ladbrokes and Gala Bingo also on the new platform, there’s lots of liquidity enabling them to run jackpot games with thousands of pounds to be won. And it keeps on getting better.

The line-up of bingo rooms at Coral includes:

• Deal or No Deal Bingo 75 and 90 (themed on the US version of the show with gold briefcases instead of red boxes)
• Emmerdale Bingo, The Chase Bingo, Coronation Street Bingo – these TV Specials are all versions of 90 ball bingo
• Slingo Bingo
• 80 ball bingo
• 75 ball bingo
• Bingo Beats (50 ball)
• Fishin’ Frenzy (50 ball)
• 30 ball bingo

..and several 90 ball rooms, from penny bingo to big jackpots to the Coral exclusive Big Blue House! The bingo rooms are busy and lively with attractive prize money and hosted chat.

Prebuy is available up to 12 days in advance and many popular slot games including Bonanza, Fluffy Favourites, Rainbow Riches, Big Banker, Big Bass Bonanza and Fishin’ Frenzy can be played as minigames inside the bingo rooms.

Note that when you claim the bingo welcome offer, the £10 spend can include prebuy, but the bonus won’t be released until all of the games you bought tickets for have actually played.

Slot Games At Coral

The selection of slot games at Coral is huge – there are more than 6000 casino games to choose from altogether. It includes many Entain exclusives as well as classics like 9 Pots of Gold, Eye of Horus, Cleopatra, Sweet Bonanza, Action Bank, Book of Ra, Starburst and Big Bad Wolf.

Progressive jackpots include Jackpot King, Red Tiger daily jackpots, Eyecon Super and Mega jackpots, Age of the Gods, Sporting Legends, Jackpot Blitz, Jackpot Giant, Big Bass Jackpot Bonanza and Rapid Fire Jackpots. There’s also an Entain exclusive jackpot suite including games such as Loot’en Khamun The Dead Sea Scrolls, which at the time of writing in August 2026 stood at more than £3 million.

There’s a few suggested categories on the home page including new releases, seasonally themed games, most popular games, Entain exclusives and various jackpot suites. New releases, jackpots and exclusives also have their own lobby areas.

Most online casinos with exclusive games have just a handful of them. Not so Coral and other Entain brands! There are more than 60 exclusive games including Emmerdale and Coronation Street themed titles, the Big Banker series and Coral branded versions of Big Bass and Fishin’ Frenzy games.

The game tiles in the lobby don’t have any extra information on them apart from jackpot size (if applicable) and whether the game is an exclusive; if you want to find out about game features, minimum spin value, volatility or Return To Player you need to open the game up and look in the help files.  Speaking of Return To Player, it’s good; many variable RTP slot games have the RTP set right at the top of the range which is great to see.

An easy to use search box helps you find games if you don’t see anything you like in the lobby; you’ll see results after putting in just 3 characters.

Other Games at Coral

The live casino at Coral has blackjack, roulette and game shows by Playtech, Pragmatic Play and Evolution, plus several other card and dice games. It’s all served up in the Live Lounge which is unique to Coral, makes it super easy to navigate between different types of live casino game and has one of the best selections of live slots and game shows anywhere, including the Entain exclusive Well Well Well Live.
