About
Ladbrokes, Gala, and Coral are all part of the GVC Holdings’ Ladbrokes Coral Group and with so many big names under the same hat, you wouldn’t be wrong in expecting a great online gaming experience! Coral Bingo itself has built a great reputation for itself since its launch and whilst initially this was using the Virtue Fusion software, the migration to Electraworks doesn’t seem to have taken the shine off the brand.
It was at the start of 2020 that Coral Bingo shed their Virtue Fusion skin, a bold move indeed. It was expected considering the move was to a software platform owned by GVC, their parent company.
The site has plenty to offer with an impressive array of bingo variants and because they have many different wallets, they also have poker, casino, lottery betting, virtual sports, and of course, sports betting.
One of the unique features of this brand is Coral Connect. This is a membership card that allows you to make deposits and withdrawals at Coral shop counters.

Deposit Options
As a UK player, there are several different options available for you to deposit and withdraw from your account. If you are playing from other countries, you may find other options available too. These listed are just the options available to us when we chose to deposit with Coral Bingo from our desktop:
- Debit card
- PayPal
- Paysafecard
- Instant Bank Transfer
- Coral Connect
As mentioned earlier in the review, it is worth noting that some of the payment options available are not eligible to receive the welcome offer for new players.
Promotions
A visit to the promotions page at Coral Bingo saw all of the special deals available listed by wallet type. There is a section for casino, live casino, and poker as well as bingo.
There’s quite the selection of offers to be found, some of which are time-limited, whilst others are a more regular feature of the site. Below are a couple of examples of the latter:
- Roomies Reel Club – this is one for the player that loves the mini-games available in the bingo rooms. Opt-in and you could earn rewards like access to free bingo games and free spins if you meet the bet requirements. Details of these are available on the promotions page.
- Free Bingo Bonanza Sessions – there are free bingo games daily at specific times with a £500 prize pool from Monday to Friday and £1,250 on Saturday and Sundays.
It is always worth checking the promotional page on a regular basis as new deals and offers are added all the time. Usually, as one promotion expires, another is added.
Bonus Codes
We could not find details of any particular Coral Bingo bonus codes at the site but that’s not to say there aren’t any. Often brands like Coral will disseminate bonus codes via email, SMS, or post. It may even be that you are contacted by telephone. However, these can’t be sent to you if you have not chosen to receive marketing material from the brand. The choice is yours.
Should we be given any specific bonus codes for the site, you will find them in this section of our review.
Game Selection
As you might expect from a brand like Coral Bingo with a long history in online gaming, the choice of games at the site is immense! Not only do they have bingo and slots, but they also have poker, lottery betting, and sports betting.
For the bingo options, you are quite spoilt for choice when it comes to the selection of bingo games available to you. Electraworks does more than just your usual 75 ball and 90 ball games.
From the main lobby, you will see the array of different rooms available and each shows the game type, number of players, ticket prize, current prize pot, and the time until the next game starts.
Coral offer you 30, 75, 80 and 90 ball games and even have a Friends themed 90 ball room. It’s also home to the Slingo titles.
If you’re more of a slots player then it’s worth noting that in the bingo room, you can access an array of slots as mini-games. Additionally, you could head to the casino and check out all the different titles listed there. Popular games like Rainbow Riches, Beat the Bobbies and Fluffy Favourites are there alongside a whole plethora of big-name games.

Coral Bingo has a useful Help and Information section on their site which includes a Contact area. Here they list a selection of topics for you to choose from and if these areas do not answer any query you may have you can use any of the following options to contact support:

Additionally, there used to be other Electraworks brands but many have migrated to other software platforms. For example, Mummies Bingo has moved to the United Commissions group on Dragonfish and Swanky Bingo to the Jumpman Gaming software.
TV Adverts
Coral Bingo has yet to take their new product to the television screens for marketing but we have in the past seen the brand promote their bingo offering in this way.
It’s been a while since a Coral Bingo commercial was seen on TV but below is one from their time on the Virtue Fusion platform. It features Carly Baker and Darren Farley, two popular ambassadors for the brand.
Review Summary
Review Summary
Coral Bingo does bingo really well and whilst many players might not have been overly impressed with the move to Electraworks platform at first, the great promotional schedule, friendly chat hosts, and great gaming experience by this big name in the world of online gambling soon had them returning. It’s a site that has earned the 4.5-star rating that it has been awarded and we’re sure you will agree if you choose to give the site a whirl.
