The UK gambling industry is one of the fastest growing industries in the world. As a result of law liberalisation during Tony Blair’s government, the UK has some of the most relaxed laws around. Market Share and Gambling Revenue Distribution. The pie charts above show a general representation of the distribution of gambling revenue in the UK. Offline gambling is still the largest sector as this include the national lottery (28%), compared to high street bookies (27%) and land-based casinos (5%) only online betting is larger (40%).
As a result of regulation changes, the UK gambling industry is one of the most rapidly growing industries around.
The UK gambling industry is one of the fastest growing industries in the world. As a result of law liberalisation during Tony Blair’s government, the UK has some of the most relaxed laws around gambling in Europe.
This is due, in part, to the creation of the UK Gambling Commission — the governing body that regulates and develops new legislation in the industry. According to reports, the total revenue for the gambling industry in Great Britain was £14.5 billion — with almost a third of it coming from the remote sector (£5.6 billion).
Despite the rise – and success – of the gambling industry, the market has been impacted through a series of new legislations with tighter regulations. Despite this, the industry as a whole has worked hard to bounce back from new restrictions on the marketplace, and continue to deliver a broad range of entertainment experiences for their growing customer base.
A history of marketplace success and change
The boom of the UK gambling industry can be attributed to the Gambling Act 2005 — which came into force on 1 September 2007. The act overhauled previous UK legislation, which dated from 1845, and covered all forms of gambling, from casinos to arcades.
The Gambling Act 2005 had three main objectives: to prevent gambling from being a source of crime or disorder, or an accessory to crime; to ensure gambling was conducted in a fair fashion; to protect children and other vulnerable individuals from being harmed or exploited by gambling. This led to the inception of the UK Gambling Commission, which continues to oversee all forms of gambling, as well as the companies with gambling establishments and platforms, in the UK.
Another important element of the Gambling Act 2005 was that it addressed the online gambling industry. For the first time ever, online casinos and poker as well as sports betting could be advertised on television. And it also opened the doors for the creation of more regional casinos as well as bigger slot machine payouts — a move that received some criticism from the opposing parties.
The legislation remained relatively unchanged until 2014. This was a response to a two-volume document published in 2012 by the Department for Culture, Media and Sport that evaluated – and critiqued – aspects of 2005’s Gambling Act. One of the main criticisms involved a trend for online operators with a British player base to move their operations to places like the Isle of Man and Gibraltar — thereby incurring a business tax rate as low as one percent.
The 2014 Gambling (Licence and Advertising Bill), which came fully into force on 1 December made a shift to how off-shore gambling brands could operate. No longer would they be taxed at point of supply by their operating territory, but instead at the point of consumption — at a flat rate of 15% on gross profits.
The new legislation also included a change in regulation; where previously, online gambling operators were regulated by the territory from which they obtained their license, from 2014 all gambling operators accessing the UK market must obtain their license from the UK Gambling Commission.
A modification of the 2005 Gambling Act came in the form of advertising. Where off-shore gambling operators could once advertise their products in Britain if they held a license from a whitelisted territory, unlicensed operators would now be forbidden from promoting their products.
Changes from 2018 onward
As the market continues to evolve, the UK Gambling Commission has maintained a watchful eye over the industry and made the regulation changes in order to reflect its three principles. This has involved new legislation in areas including casinos (both online and land-based), bingo and sport.
Here, we discuss some of these changes in legislation and how the industry has bounced back in response.
Casinos and bookmakers
In 2018, news broke of a change to legislation that would see the maximum permitted stake on fixed-odds betting terminals would be cut from £100 to £2. This was to the dismay of high street gaming groups, who believed that the legislation would lead to store closures across the UK.
Many companies have begun offering new games to offset the losses on FOBTs. This includes several roulette-style games that were similar to those FOBTs.
A change to 2005’s point of consumption tax (at 15%) was also revealed. As a way to compensate for some of the losses that it would suffer due to changes in the FOBTs maximum stakes, lawmakers made the decision to increase the tax to 21%.
As well as offsetting some of these losses, the government revealed that the point-of-consumption tax would help provide all online casinos and operators with equal opportunities.
Bingo
Bingo has always been a popular form of gaming. Enjoyed by millions of people around the world, more than 3.8 million people in the UK play the game in bingo halls every year. Like other games in the gambling industry, bingo has both benefited – and suffered – from changes in legislation over the years.
The Gambling Act of 2005 did improve bingo’s status as an industry leader. As a result of the UK Gambling Commission – and their regulations of websites – online bingo platforms, including on mobile, have experienced great success. While changes during 2014 did affect offshore bingo companies, the market hasn’t experienced some of the challenges casinos have faced — like the maximum stake reduction on FOTB’s. Best bingo bonuses and other promotions have ensured the industry remains in a strong position; and will continue to grow in the future.
Sports
Sports betting shops first opened their doors in the UK 1961, after approval from the government’s Betting and Gaming Act. One of the main changes in law since have been the new legislation on FOBT’s.
It remains, however, one of the largest sections of the gambling industry; and with the popularity of live sports, one of the most exciting sectors (and experiences) available.
Into the future
When it comes to gambling, the UK continues to have some of the most liberal laws in the world. With the UK Gambling Commission overseeing – and regulating – the industry, the marketplace will continue to grow.
You may look at the betting and gambling industry and think there is a lot of healthy competition, with hundreds of brands now vying for our pennies. Many companies however, although they might seem independent, are in fact part of the same group, and you may never know it. As with many markets, there are in fact a few big players and the rest are left to scramble for the remainder of the custom.
It isn’t just the old high street bookies like William Hill and Betfred that occupy the top spots in the biggest betting company leagues. Many early online only bookmakers have already beaten the old land based operators, such as Bet365, and the world’s biggest and first online exchange, Betfair. Mergers between already large companies such as Ladbrokes and Coral and Betfair and Paddy Power has created behemoth bookies. These giants have further merged to create collosus billion pound companies such as GVC and The Stars Group. The future of bookmaking in the UK is in the balance as it risks becoming a monopoly of a very few massive companies, very much like the energy markets.
In this article we also look at the development of the UK gambling industry, the size of the profits made along with the progressive switch to online betting and gaming.Largest Betting CompaniesFlutter Stars Group (Paddy Power, Betfair, SkyBet, PokerStars + Others)1Dublin / Toronto£3.8 Billion12500600 (UK + I)2020 (Merger)
Many mergers are often just about money. Coral didn’t really bring anything new to Ladbrokes for example, but the merger between Betfair and Paddy Power in 2016 to create the third biggest betting brand was certainly mutually beneficial to both parties.
The group, renamed Flutter Entertainment, completed a second merger in 2020 with The Stars Group, owner of Sky Betting & Games, PokerStars and a whole host of other poker related sites. Together this group overnight became the largest betting company in the world in terms of revenue and market share (38% online market share at the time of the takeover). Unlike GVC the new Flutter Stars Group has a much more diverse portfolio and a bigger international reach so it is likely they will go on to strengthen their position at number 1.
Paddy Power, one of Ireland’s biggest bookmakers, was founded in 1988 but it was the online age that really saw the brand come to life through its often controversial advertising strategies. Holding over 600 shops across the UK and Ireland and boasting retail revenues of nearly £1 billion Paddy Power brought the real world locations, marketing strategy and cash to the merger.
Betfair on the other hand had a very different history in the betting industry. Launching as a peer-peer betting exchange rather than a traditional bookie in 2000, Betfair became the biggest of its type in no time at all. Despite better odds on offer in the exchange, the market still remains fairly small (see later) and so in order to compete Betfair launched a fixed odds sports book in 2011. Betfair are the smaller party in the merger, generating less than £500 million in revenue. For this reason PP shareholders received 52% and Betfair 48% of the Flutter company when it was formed.2London£3.7 Billion3000040002004
William Hill were ousted from top spot following the merger in 2016 of Britain’s second and third largest bookmakers in 2015, completed 2016. The new company, imaginatively named Ladbrokes-Coral Plc, generated nearly £2.5 billion in revenue each year and employed over 30,000 people.
In 2018 the new group was further purchased by GVC (the former name of Entain) in a deal worth around £4 billion, adding further power to the brand on an international scale. GVC also own and run sites such as sportingbet (although we wouldn’t recommend them to bet with), partypoker, Gala, Foxy and Bwin.
Ladbrokes, Britain’s oldest betting company founded in 1886, and Coral, established in the 1926, have over 200 years experience of being a bookmaker between them. The group own nearly 4000 betting shops, although were forced to sell over 300 in their 2016 merger, and are two of the most recognisable brands on the British high street.
Coral, started by Joe Coral an on track bookmaker in the 1920’s, grew rapidly following legalisation of off-course betting shops in 1961, becoming one of the first bookies to take advantage. Merging with another company in 1971 to become Coral Leisure the group was acquired by Bass in 1981. In 1997 Ladbrokes made their first attempt to buy Coral from Bass but this was blocked by the UK Monopolies and Mergers Commission at the time. Coral was sold to Morgan Grenfell, a private equity firm in 1999 and also merged with Eurobet, one of the first online betting sites, in the same year. Gala bingo, founded in 1991 and operating over 150 halls with an additional online presence, merged with Coral in 2005 to form the Gala Coral Group.
Ladbrokes was started by two men who acted as a commission agents for horses (trained at Ladbroke Hill). Following a move to London in the early 20th century the company became a bookmaker for rich clients. Falling on harder times following WWII the company was sold for just £100,000. The same legalisation of betting shops that drove Coral’s rise in 1961 however reversed the fortunes of Ladbrokes too, who were later floated on the stock exchange for £1M in 1966. With forays into the hotel (Hilton Group) and home convenience industry the Ladbrokes group grew to second largest UK bookmaker. Prior to their Coral merger Ladbrokes also acquired BETDAQ, the second largest betting exchange, 2013.

The group now generate nearly half of their profits from digital sources and between them have more online customers than any other company. In late 2020 the group changed its name to Entain PLC. For more about each brand see our full reviews.3Stoke-on-Trent£3.0 Billion4700None2000
Bet365 meteoric rise has all come form the digital industry, and considering that only now is the online gambling market bigger than the high street (excluding national lottery) that is a pretty impressive performance. When they say in their advents that Bet365 is the worlds favourite online betting company they really are not lying.
Established in 2000 from a small temporary building in Stoke by now multi-billionaire Denise Coates, the highest paid woman in Britain, Bet365 now generates massive online revenues and is the largest private employer in Stoke. They even own the football stadium.
Denise started the business by borrowing against her fathers brick and mortar bookmaking business, established in 1974 by Stoke City chairman Peter Coates. Selling off the shops to Coral in 2005 Bet365 became an online only operator where they have gained a huge customer base of over 45+ million people from 200 countries. The brand has the best reputation within the betting and gaming industry from both punters and insiders and boasts one of the most loyal customer bases of any business.
Often cited as a success story of British online business, if you were to rule out the offline gambling sector then these guys would be the biggest. Multi-award winnings and constantly developing new technology and ideas the only way this company is going in the future is up.4London£1.6 Billion1600023001934
For a long time William Hill were the largest betting company in the UK with over 2300 shops and just under £2 billion in annual revenues. The operator, which now generates up to £200 million in annual profits and is listed on the FTSE 250, comes from humble beginnings.
In 1934 the company was founded by Mr William Hill, who following some early failures and illegal enterprises found he could make money using a loophole that allowed off-course betting using credit or post. Hill’s entered late into the betting shop industry, opening their first 5 years after the change in law in 1966, due to the founders belief they were a cancer to society. He relented when he saw how quickly his competitors were getting ahead.
The company changed ownership many times down the years. Bought for £700 million in 1997, the brand was again sold two years later for £825 million and listed on the London Stock Exchange in 2002.
The William Hill group have had some corporate failures over the years but their aggressive strategy, especially online, has allowed them to dominate the market landscape. Probably the most well known bookmaker in the world, largely down to the fact Hill’s have spread outside the UK more than any other bookie, and also due to their vast amount they spend on advertising and sponsorship.5Warrington£800 Million100016501967
The Betfred journey to becoming one of the biggest independent betting companies in the UK is more heart-warming than most others. Established from a single shop in Salford by Fred an Peter Done in 1967, the group now have a multi-billion turnover and up to £1 billion in revenues annually. Based in Warrington the company has never been sold or merged and remains in the same hands as it started in.
Fred Done is known in particular for paying our early on Manchester United to win the league twice only for them lose on both occasions (1998 and 2012). He also lost £1,000,000 in a private bet with Victor Chandler (owner of BetVictor) betting again on Man United, this time to finish higher than Chelsea in 2005 - which they didn’t. Despite these misjudgements Fred is also known for inventing the Lucky 15 and other full cover bets.
The company has a large betting shop operation, and since buying around 300 shops that Ladbrokes-Coral were forced to sell now own in the region of 1650 stores in the UK. Famed for being one of the best racing bookmakers Betfred increased their exposure in this market by buying the tote in 2011 for £265. This allows them to licence totepool bets to other operators as well as providing bespoke tote bets others don’t have. Despite this Betfred’s future looks mixed and will likely hinge on how well they grow online in the coming years.6Malta£800 Million1400100 (Stan James)1997
Kindred is a name you will likely not have heard of, it is in fact the rebranding of the old Unibet Group Plc following the acquisition of over a dozen other brands.
Fast becoming one of the biggest betting companies in Britain and Europe the Kindred group includes Stan James, 32Red, Bingo.com and Maria. Unibet is of course the jewel in the crown, the Scandinavian brand has grown to become one of the biggest online betting sites with over 15 million customers.
The future intention of this brand is clear from their recent history of takeovers, paying £19 million for Stan James (which includes a new real world presence) and £175 million for the top rated online casino 32Red.7Gibraltar£600 Million1400None1997
888 is a thoroughly modern betting company, there is no romantic back story here. Now part of a rather convoluted corporate structure, 888 Holdings is the gambling arm of parent company Cassava Enterprises. Initially founded as Virtual Holdings running an early casino site, casino-on-net, by two Israeli business men, the company grew in step with the rise of the internet.
The brand was renamed 888 in 2002 and

In 1934 the company was founded by Mr William Hill, who following some early failures and illegal enterprises found he could make money using a loophole that allowed off-course betting using credit or post. Hill’s entered late into the betting shop industry, opening their first 5 years after the change in law in 1966, due to the founders belief they were a cancer to society. He relented when he saw how quickly his competitors were getting ahead.
The company changed ownership many times down the years. Bought for £700 million in 1997, the brand was again sold two years later for £825 million and listed on the London Stock Exchange in 2002.
The William Hill group have had some corporate failures over the years but their aggressive strategy, especially online, has allowed them to dominate the market landscape. Probably the most well known bookmaker in the world, largely down to the fact Hill’s have spread outside the UK more than any other bookie, and also due to their vast amount they spend on advertising and sponsorship.5Warrington£800 Million100016501967

Based in Warrington the company has never been sold or merged and remains in the same hands as it started in.
Fred Done is known in particular for paying our early on Manchester United to win the league twice only for them lose on both occasions (1998 and 2012). He also lost £1,000,000 in a private bet with Victor Chandler (owner of BetVictor) betting again on Man United, this time to finish higher than Chelsea in 2005 - which they didn’t. Despite these misjudgements Fred is also known for inventing the Lucky 15 and other full cover bets.
The company has a large betting shop operation, and since buying around 300 shops that Ladbrokes-Coral were forced to sell now own in the region of 1650 stores in the UK. Famed for being one of the best racing bookmakers Betfred increased their exposure in this market by buying the tote in 2011 for £265. This allows them to licence totepool bets to other operators as well as providing bespoke tote bets others don’t have. Despite this Betfred’s future looks mixed and will likely hinge on how well they grow online in the coming years.6Malta£800 Million1400100 (Stan James)1997
