Gala Casino Review

Rating: 4.8/5

Gala Casino has a long history as a well respected online slot and casino site with a great selection of slots including some huge progressive jackpots and some Gala Coral exclusive games.

You probably associate the name Gala more with bingo, but if you decide to check out the iconic brand’s casino offering instead you are in for a pleasant surprise! Having said that, all three Gala sites Gala Bingo, Gala Casino and Gala Spins now work with the same login and wallet, so whichever welcome offer you choose (and you can only claim one) you’ll gain access to all three sites.

Gala Casino now runs on Entain’s own platform which means they have one of the best selection of slot games you’ll find anywhere; they’ve retained all the Playtech titles they had as a purely Playtech powered outfit and added many, many more. The jackpots alone include Kingdoms Rise, Age of the Gods, Age of the Gods Norse, Gladiator, Jackpot Giant, Jackpot King, Red Tiger Daily Jackpots, Sporting Legends, WowPots, and Mega Moolah. Add to that a regular slots line-up featuring such classics as Wolf Gold, Bonanza, Starburst and many others alongside exclusive Entain titles such as Big Banker Slot, Lock O’The Irish and Cake Off – and well, you can see what all the fuss is about, can’t you!

That’s just the slots, of course. They also have Slingo and instant win games plus the Table and Cards area which has roulette, blackjack and first person (non live host) versions of games like Dream Catcher and Mega Ball. Then there’s a massive Live Casino area with roulette, blackjack, poker, dice and game shows from Evolution, Playtech and Pragmatic Play.

The array of promotions at Gala Casino includes free to enter daily slot tournaments, prize draws, bonus games and game provider run promotions such as Pragmatic Play’s Drops and Wins.

As far as trust and safety goes, Gala Casino scores pretty highly.

It’s one of very few slot and casino sites to have the High level of insolvency protection for customer funds (not that it is ever likely to be needed with the backing of such a huge organisation)
Entain are very big on player safety and have won a number of awards, for example the Socially Responsible Operator of the Year at the SBC Awards 2022
As Entain are one of the very few operators allowed in the Play Store and App Store, there’s Android and iOS apps to make mobile play simple and secure

With all of this going for it plus a very attractive welcome offer, what’s not to like!

Safer Gambling Provision

The Safer Gambling area of the Gala Casino website is much more prominently linked than you would normally expect at an online casino – it’s on the main menu. It’s also extremely comprehensive and the player protection arrangements include many extras that go above and beyond what is required by the Gambling Commission. There’s a self assessment tool, a budget calculator and a link to a financial wellbeing app. You can also visit the My Hub area in your account settings where you can see what your net deposits are and how much you’ve won or lost over a period of time. There’s extra safer gambling tools, too. For example, Reality Check is one of the compulsory safer gambing tools but it’s pretty toothless as all it does is remind you how long you’ve been playing; Entain also have Play Breaks which allows you to set compulsory breaks between sessions, for 15 minutes up to 3 hours, during which you can’t deposit or play. The other Entain extras are maximum stake limits (which restrict how much you can bet per spin) and deposit curfew (which pauses the ability to deposit at times and/or on days or dates of your choosing). No surprise then, that they’ve won awards for their safer gambling provision and been awarded the Safer Gambling Standard top level certification, Advanced Level 3.
