Ladbrokes review: UK sportsbook, licence-checked
Best for: Football specials and racing
Entain's flagship British brand: broad football and racing coverage, a familiar app, and a large games lobby. Reliable rather than remarkable, with pricing that is fair on the big markets.
No welcome offer shown. We publish an offer only after reading it with its significant terms on the operator's own page; this operator's page could not be read at the last verification, so its current offer is on its site.

Ladbrokes dates from 1886 and is the best-known betting brand in Britain after William Hill. It is owned by Entain plc, which also runs Coral; the two share technology and the same licensee for online customers, LC International Limited.
Odds and markets
Football, racing and greyhounds are the core. Ladbrokes runs frequent price boosts on televised matches and a bet builder that covers most leagues. Racing carries best odds guaranteed and extra places on major festivals.
App and site
The app mirrors Coral’s under a different skin. It is straightforward, with a clear bet slip and reliable cash out; it has been known to slow at peak times.
Payments
Payment methods and withdrawal times are shown as not yet documented until transcribed from the operator’s own pages at verification.
Safer gambling
Entain’s safer-gambling tools include deposit limits, time-outs, and its ARC monitoring of play patterns. GamStop applies.
