    Thumbs up Coral Connect - Raising The game

    Thank You Gents...

    Some of you may be familiar with me from hanging round this place for 6 years but may not know the Coral brand so let me give you some background on who we are and where we're from...

    Below I'll tell you about Coral's background...

    Some recent Product changes at Coral...

    What's coming up in the next few months...

    Coral is one part of the larger GalaCoral Group which owns both the land-based and online entities of both the Gala and the Coral brand. Coral is one of the most trusted and recognised names on the high street with over 1,700 betting shops in the UK. We have been in the betting game since 1926 so are now well into our ninth decade. The result of this is that punters already know and trust the Coral brand - but did we have the website to capitalise?

    Earlier this year, to better serve a changing industry, this big corporate entity was spun out into 4 separate business units: The Gala and Coral brands were separated and online activity was separated from retail/land-based.

    This action created Coral Interactive which is a leaner more flexible organisation that is wholly focused on the online world and has no restrictions or direction placed on it from the retail side of the business.

    Gala and Coral used to have a shared affiliate programme but these are now separated. Gala duplicated the affiliate accounts and player tagging of any one who had previously played the old Gala casino and inserted the data into their new Income Access skin.

    We stayed on the same platform but re-skinned, re-branded and re-launched it as Coral Connect - this means that if you had an old GalaCoral Affiliate account you don't need to open a new one with Coral Connect - just get in touch and we'll get your login details over to you.

    Also important to note that there is no shared marketing resource between Gala and Coral whatsoever Coral and Gala are separate companies in separate offices and totally different teams.

    In October we had a massive overhaul of product which saw the launch of a new Playtech platform for casino and games as well as OpenBet sports betting software. We also have a very nice mobile app + mobile web platform courtesy of mobenga which I highly recommend.

    Now, no affiliate is going to get over excited about the launch of (another) playtech casino so let me tell you some things we do have that are different to our rivals...

    • We have GENUINE single-wallet functionality. A players cash balance will update in real time regardless of the platform or product they are playing on. We no longer have to coach them on how to get to their cashier and transfer cash over before they can play casino, for example. This has big implications for cross-selling your players into other products. They only need one account to play any Coral product.
    • Plenty of brands use Mobenga Mobile product but we think we have the edge on them. The Coral mobile app aims to set new standards, in particular for ‘bet in play’ as speed is at the forefront of the offer. Registration is quicker and easier as is navigation, enabling faster bets – it’s at least 3 clicks quicker to place a bet than many of its competitors. Another highlight is the 'in mobile' Racing Post content and race cards, providing form and information on every runner and rider as well as the ability to stream live races direct to your mobile. We will soon have the same stats and content available on football markets. Whilst waiting for kick-off, Mobile players can also enjoy a variety of playtech slots and scratch games too, all from the same download.


    We have an experienced team to assist you at Coral Connect. Along with myself you can contact Sarah Caskie who has previously worked at StanJames and most recently BetVictor as well as Nick Thompson who joins from BetFred.

    There is going to be so much going on with Coral in the coming months; A huge UK TV campaign kicks off in December (check back for details) as well as an increase in the freebet offer from £30 to £50. The new £50 freebet also has fewer restrictions on how it can be used by punters so should offer them much more value.

    The only way to keep up with all the latest offers and promotions is to sign up and subscribe to receive our mailers. When you join the programme you no longer get automatically opted in to receive mailers so you have to tell us that you want them.

    Now the last thing you need is more spam so if you're worried about that just let me know and I'll forward you some recent examples so you can see that kind of thing we send. For example, we can send you a couple of emails each week listing all our confirmed sports offers, several days in advance, along with content suggestions, relevant T&C's, topped off with your own customised tracking links and URLs so you don't even have to login to your account! - How useful is that!

    Anyway, that's enough for now - let me know if you have any questions

    Really liking the changes at Coral - I hadn't really been giving coral much exposure before, but I'm very positive about the new look and promotions. Especially now we know there's decent aff support.

    Have given you a little coverage to start and I'll slowly add Coral to the rest of my network over the next few weeks.

    Can we have some casino banners though - their don't seem to be, or at least it says there aren't when I search. Although weirdly in the image size drop down it says there are...
    onlinegamblingwebsites.com - Formally known as goodbonusguide.

    Gambling Domains: Small clear out of some of the domains we've been hoarding on Dan - see the list here. Prices negotiable, and willing to swap for decent links.
