NOTICE: In 2023, Coral changed the Connect Card and made it much more basic. It is now little more than a reward scheme and offers none of the other benefits such as betting terminal access and deposits\/withdrawals. The information below is therefore no longer accurate.<\/strong><\/p>\n We enjoyed using Coral\u2019s Connect card, despite it struggling in a few areas and totally crashing and burning when it came to instore gaming.<\/p>\n From an easy setup process to using it with the betting machines though it worked perfectly, with no need for any help from shop staff or any bumps in the road along the way.<\/p>\n The product actually started out being much more feature rich than it is now, with a dedicated app full of things like live streaming, results, and news pieces, but this app is no longer available and it took many of the bells and whistles with it.<\/p>\n That makes the Connect card a shell of its former self, but actually, the main pillars of its reason to exist remain, so you can still use it to do the basics like make bets, track bets, and withdraw and deposit cash in store.<\/p>\n If anything, getting rid of all the extra stuff actually makes it more effective.<\/p>\n There is nothing too strenuous about getting hold of one of these and getting it all linked up, but to make it even easier here is the step by step process:<\/p>\n That\u2019s it, the card is ready to use right away, although it can take some time for any new funds to show up.<\/p>\n Essentially though, it\u2019s a plug and play sort of arrangement with very few steps in the process, which is a dream compared to some other bookie cards.<\/p>\n To use the card you just tap it on the contactless point on any of the betting terminals, or insert it into the gaming machines.<\/p>\n We had two very different experiences here, with the gaming terminals refusing to recognise our funds despite recognising our account, and the shop staff didn\u2019t understand why or seem that interested in finding out.<\/p>\nHow the Coral Connect Card Works<\/h2>\n
