In shortLC International Limited is the Gibraltar-registered company that holds the British online licence for Coral and Ladbrokes. It belongs to Entain, a FTSE-listed gambling group.
Entain, the group that owns LC International Limited, paid £17 million in 2022 for social responsibility and anti-money laundering failures across its online and betting-shop businesses. Ladbrokes Coral also paid £5.9 million in 2019.
What it means for a customer
One licence covers both brands, so for complaints, self-exclusion and regulatory history they are a single company.
A practical note
Entain also owns other betting and gaming brands in Britain. For a Coral or Ladbrokes customer the practical point is simple: one company, one licence, one record, two shop fronts.

A regulatory settlement or fine means the Gambling Commission found that an operator fell short of its licence conditions and required it to pay and to change. The cases recorded on this site concerned social responsibility, meaning how customers showing signs of harm were dealt with, and anti-money laundering controls. They were not findings that games were unfair or that winnings went unpaid. Large operators are sanctioned fairly often, and the operator remains licensed afterwards. Treat a record as information about how a company has behaved, not as a verdict on whether to use it.
How we score casinos
Each of the five casinos is scored out of ten in six categories: the welcome offer and its terms, games, live casino, payments, mobile, and trust and support. The overall score out of five combines them. Scores are desk-based: they draw on each casino's published terms, the public register and recent independent reviews, not on real-money accounts, and we say so wherever it matters. Commission from casinos does not change a score or an order, and the overall score is not a ranking of trustworthiness.
If the casino is not licensed
None of this applies. There is no regulator to complain to, no dispute service, no required testing of games, no obligation to keep your money separate and no GAMSTOP. Money sent to an unlicensed site should be regarded as spent. That is the reason every route through this site starts with the licence check.
Licences were confirmed on the Gambling Commission register; regulatory actions were checked against Commission announcements on 8 October 2026; offer terms on 5 October 2026. Items labelled "reported" come from independent reviews, and items labelled "not checked" we have not confirmed. How we check. 18+. Free help: 0808 8020 133 or safer gambling.
