How our casino app comparisons work
Each of our casino app comparisons lines up two apps on the same set of published facts, then gives a verdict for different kinds of player. Nothing is scored on star ratings or on our own play: the figures come from App Store and Google Play listings, operator help pages and the Gambling Commission register.
There are three kinds of comparison. Partner against partner, such as Coral vs Ladbrokes. Partner against another UK app, such as PlayOJO vs bet365. And format questions, such as iPhone vs Android casino apps or standalone vs sportsbook apps.
Partner casino apps compared at a glance
This snapshot shows why pairings often come down to a few clear differences. Withdrawal times are as each operator publishes them, and they start after the operator approves the request.
| App | Withdrawal times published | Withdrawal fees | Support channels published |
|---|---|---|---|
| Coral | Approval, then instantly to five banking days by method; Visa Fast Funds typically up to 4 hours after approval | None charged | Live chat, email; no phone number published |
| Ladbrokes | Approval, then instantly to five banking days by method; Visa Fast Funds typically up to 4 hours after approval | None charged | Live chat, email, phone (hours not published) |
| PlayOJO | Most payments processed within a few hours | Not published | Live chat after login, email |
| Casumo | E-wallets and Apple Pay instantly after approval; card up to 2 days; bank up to 5 days | £3 below £10 | Email; UK support 7:00 to 23:00 |
| 10bet | Cards and e-wallets up to 2 business days; bank transfer up to 3 | Not published | Live chat, phone 08:00 to 23:00, email |

What every casino app comparison checks
- App details: store name, publisher, iOS version, size and whether the casino is a standalone app.
- Licence: the licence holder and its account on the Commission register.
- Welcome offer: headline and key terms, all 18+ with terms applying.
- Payments and withdrawals: methods listed, published times and fees.
- Games: what the operator publishes about slots, live casino and table games.
- Support and tools: contact channels, deposit limits, time-outs and self-exclusion.
A useful detail on customer money: each licensee must tell you how well your balance is protected if the business fails. The Commission explains the ratings in its guide to protection of customer funds (opens in a new tab).
When two casino apps share an owner
Coral and Ladbrokes are both run by LC International Limited, part of Entain, under the same Gambling Commission account (54743). Their apps are close in size and both need iOS 18.0, so the Coral vs Ladbrokes comparison focuses on smaller differences such as rewards and phone support.
Because they share an operator, one person may not be able to hold new accounts at both. Our answer to why you can't open accounts at Coral and Ladbrokes explains why.
Shared ownership also means shared rules. Both brands follow the same withdrawal process, the same no-fee policy and the same three-payment-method limit, so a comparison between them rests on rewards, app features and how you like to get help.
Casino app comparisons by format
Not every choice is between brands. Many readers are deciding whether to download at all. The casino app vs mobile site comparison covers storage, login and notifications, while phone vs tablet looks at screen size for live tables. If a comparison leaves you unsure, the best casino apps UK lists rank the partners by need and the casino app reviews cover each app in full.
18+. Every casino game has a built-in house edge, so over time you should expect to lose what you stake. Set a budget before you play and stop when it’s gone: safer gambling tools and support. Free, confidential help: National Gambling Helpline 0808 8020 133.
Frequently asked questions
Which is better, Coral or Ladbrokes casino app?
They're very close, because both are run by LC International Limited and publish the same withdrawal process and payment methods. On our editorial scores Coral is 4.3 and Ladbrokes 4.2. Ladbrokes lists a phone line, while Coral's help pages don't publish one, and each has its own rewards. Read Coral vs Ladbrokes for the full comparison, or our answer on the difference between the Coral and Ladbrokes apps.
Is a standalone casino app better than a sportsbook app with a casino?
A standalone app keeps the casino lobby to itself, while a combined app adds sport and is often larger to download. Coral, Ladbrokes and PlayOJO publish dedicated casino apps; Casumo and 10bet combine casino and betting on iPhone. Which is better depends on whether you also bet on sport. Our standalone vs sportsbook apps comparison and the standalone casino apps list cover both.
Do you compare partner apps with non-partner apps fairly?
Yes. Partner-against-non-partner comparisons use the same published facts for both sides, and we say where the other app publishes something better, such as more support hours or a faster stated payout. We don't link to non-partner sites or give them scores. Try Casumo vs Sky Vegas or 10bet vs 888casino to see the format.
Are casino apps on iPhone and Android the same?
Usually the account, balance and games are the same, but the store listings differ. On iPhone you can see the minimum iOS version and the privacy label, while Google Play shows a data safety section and no minimum Android version on the web listing. App names can differ slightly too. Our iPhone vs Android casino apps comparison and the casino apps by device hub explain the details.
Which casino app pays out fastest in your comparisons?
No single app is fastest for every method. Casumo says PayPal, Apple Pay and e-wallet withdrawals arrive instantly after approval, which it says takes hours. Coral and Ladbrokes say Visa Fast Funds approval typically takes a couple of hours, then up to 4 hours to reach your bank. PlayOJO says most payments are processed within a few hours. See fast withdrawal casino apps and which casino app pays out fastest.
Should I use the app or the desktop site?
Use whichever suits how you play, because the account and balance are normally shared. An app gives quicker login and can use Face ID, while a desktop site gives a bigger screen and doesn't take storage on your phone. Our casino app vs desktop site comparison weighs them up, and is the casino app the same as the website answers the common follow-up.
