Paddy Power casino app

The Paddy Power casino app comes in two parts

Search the UK App Store for Paddy Power and you will see more than one icon. The casino side is split between Paddy Power Games, filed in the Casino category, and Paddy Power Live Casino, a dedicated app for streamed dealer tables. The sports betting app is a separate download again, so a phone can end up with three Paddy Power icons if you use everything.

That split matters on a phone with limited space. The Games listing shows a download of 150.4 MB and needs iOS 15.0 or later, while the Live Casino listing shows 103.4 MB and asks for iOS 13.0 or later. If you only ever play slots, the Games app alone covers you; if you mostly sit at live roulette or blackjack tables, the smaller live app is the more focused choice. Our guide to casino app data usage explains why live streams cost more data than slots.

Both listings carry an 18+ age rating and name Paddy Power PLC as the seller. A casino app is only a front end: your login, balance, deposit limits and verification status are the same in each app and on the website.

Who runs Paddy Power's casino for UK players

The Gambling Commission's public register lists PPB Entertainment Limited as the holder of the casino and bingo licence, under account number 39426, active since November 2014. Its head office is in St Julian's, Malta. The company is part of Flutter Entertainment, the group that also owns Betfair, Sky Betting & Gaming and PokerStars.

Paddy Power uses several licensed companies for different jobs, which is common for large groups. The register shows these related accounts:

For a casino player, 39426 is the number that matters. It is the one to look up if you want to confirm who is responsible for your casino account, your complaints and your safer gambling tools.

From Irish bookmaker to Flutter brand

Paddy Power was founded in Ireland in 1988 and built its name on high-street betting shops before moving online. In 2016 it merged with Betfair to form Paddy Power Betfair, and that group renamed itself Flutter Entertainment in 2019. Flutter later bought The Stars Group, which is how PokerStars and Sky Betting & Gaming joined the same family.

The casino was always a second product next to sports betting, and the app line-up reflects that history. Rather than one giant app, Paddy Power keeps sports, games and live casino in separate downloads. That is different from some newer brands that put everything behind tabs in one app; our page on casino apps vs betting apps looks at the pros and cons of each approach.

Paddy Power Games vs Paddy Power Live Casino

The two store listings describe quite different apps. This table sets out what each one says, as shown on the UK App Store in October 2026.

Neither listing mentions Face ID or Touch ID. If biometric login matters to you, look for it in the app's login screen or settings after installing, rather than assuming it is there.

What the Paddy Power Games listing describes

The Games listing names a slot lobby with Megaways slots and Slingo, a Jackpot Slots category and Daily Jackpots, which are must-drop jackpots that pay out before a set time each day. It also lists online roulette and blackjack tables, live tables and game shows such as Crazy Time, plus two promotional features: Paddy's Wonder Wheel, a daily prize wheel, and Paddy's Rewards Club, the loyalty scheme.

On a phone, this kind of lobby is usually organised as a horizontal row of category tabs at the top and scrolling tiles below. Slots and Slingo play well in portrait. Most table games and many slots switch to landscape to give the reels or the felt more room, so it is worth unlocking rotation before you start a session.

Every slot in a UK app follows the same design rules: no autoplay, no turbo or slam-stop, at least 2.5 seconds per spin and a visible net position. Stakes are capped at £5 a spin if you are 25 or over and £2 if you are 18 to 24. The UK stake limits on mobile slots guide explains how apps apply these caps.

How to install the Paddy Power casino app safely

Install from the official store only, and confirm the seller before you tap Get. These steps work on iPhone; the Android route follows the same logic in Google Play.

1. Open the App Store and search for Paddy Power Games (or Paddy Power Live Casino if you only want dealer tables).
2. Open the listing and scroll to Information. Check that the seller is Paddy Power PLC and the age rating is 18+.
3. Tap Get and confirm with Face ID, Touch ID or your Apple Account password.
4. Open the app and log in with your existing Paddy Power details, or register if you are new.
5. Allow notifications only if you want them; you can switch them off later in Settings.
6. Complete age and identity checks before playing anything, including free-to-play demos.

On Android, search Google Play and check the developer name in the About section before installing. Google lets licensed operators it has approved list real-money apps in Great Britain, so you should not need an APK file. If the app does not appear, our page on casino apps not on Google Play explains the usual reasons.

Your account, verification and UK rules in the app

Because the apps share one account, verification you complete in the browser carries over to every app. UK licensees must confirm your name, address and date of birth before you can deposit or play, and they may ask for documents later for anti-money laundering or affordability reasons. The casino app verification guide covers what to expect.

Several national rules shape how Paddy Power's casino apps behave, as they do for every UK operator:

• Credit cards can't be used to gamble, including through Apple Pay or Google Pay linked to a credit card.
• Bonus wagering is capped at 10x for offers made from 19 January 2026.
• Withdrawals can't be reversed once requested.
• Feature buys are not offered in Great Britain.
• Non-slot casino games must take at least 5 seconds per round, with no autoplay.

Safer gambling tools in Paddy Power's apps

UK licence conditions require Paddy Power to offer deposit limits, time-outs, self-exclusion and links to support, and these apply across the app and website because they sit on the account. In most operator apps these tools live under the account or profile menu, often in a section called Safer Gambling or Responsible Gambling. Reality checks, which pop up after a set time to show how long you have played, are another common option.

Setting a deposit limit before your first session is the simplest control. Lowering a limit takes effect straight away, while raising one involves a cooling-off delay. You can also block every UK online operator at once through GAMSTOP. Our guide to setting limits in casino apps walks through each tool.

Paddy Power's regulatory record

The Gambling Commission publishes enforcement action against licensees. For Paddy Power, the record includes a £2.2 million penalty in 2018, when the business traded as Paddy Power Betfair, and a £2 million settlement in December 2025. Penalty notices and public statements on the Commission's website describe what went wrong in each case.

A past penalty does not stop a business holding a licence, but it is useful context. The register is the place to confirm the licence is active today.

How to check Paddy Power on the UKGC register

It takes about two minutes on your phone and works for any casino, not only Paddy Power:

1. Go to the Gambling Commission website and open the public register of businesses.
2. Search for PPB Entertainment Limited or the account number 39426.
3. Check that the status is Active and that remote casino is among the licensed activities.
4. Open the domain names list and confirm that the web address you use is on it.
5. Compare the company with the seller or developer shown on the app store listing.

Our how to check a casino licence guide shows the same process with screenshots described in words.

Compare alternatives to the Paddy Power casino app

If you want a sportsbook brand with its own casino app, the partner apps below follow a similar model. Coral's casino app gives new players 100 free spins after they deposit and bet £10 on slots (10p spins on selected games, 48 hours to accept, valid 7 days, no wagering on winnings; some payment methods excluded). Ladbrokes pays up to 500 free spins, 50 a day for 10 days, after a £10 slots spend (10p each, claim daily from the inbox, no wagering). 10bet matches a first deposit 100% up to £25, with 10x wagering on slots within 3 days. All are 18+ and terms apply. See every option on our casino app reviews page.
