Sponsorships

32Red advertises in the Premier League through advertising boards at different grounds. It was also the kit sponsor for Aston Villa between 2006 and 2008, and from 2018. On 25 June 2009, 32Red was announced as an official main sponsor of Swansea City. The sponsorship ended early after the 2012–13 season. In a two-year deal starting in 2013, 32Red sponsored Crawley Town. In 2016, they signed a sponsorship deal with Leeds United which ended in 2021. In 2018 it signed a sponsorship deal with Middlesbrough, Derby County, and Preston North End. Former England captain Wayne Rooney's 2019 move to Derby County was enabled by 32Red who partly funded his £90,000 a week salary. Rooney's decision to wear the number 32 jersey for Derby and the sponsorship by 32Red were criticised in the media for exposing betting to children.
At the start of the 2018–19 English Championship season, 32Red were the Shirt Sponsors on 5 teams - Leeds United, Aston Villa, Derby County, Preston North End and Middlesbrough. In 2019, 32Red and Unibet signed a two-year agreement with the Vanarama National League to become its official betting partners.
The company signed a three-year deal with Scottish Championship team Rangers in April 2014. Rangers renewed the sponsorship deal in 2021.

In 2016, 32Red replaced William Hill as the sponsors of the King George VI Chase in a three-year deal.




Controversies


In October 2010, 32Red's dispute with William Hill over the use of 32Vegas reached the High Court of Justice in London where a six-day trial took place over the matter. 32Red objected to Hill's use of the 32Vegas brand (which was renamed 21Nova subsequent to 32Red instigating legal proceedings). Handing down Judgment in January 2011, Mr Justice Henderson ruled that William Hill had infringed the 32Red trade mark and that their counterclaims against the validity of 32Red's trade marks (32 and 32Red) were dismissed.
In June 2018, the Gambling Commission fined 32Red £2 million for failing a problem gambler who had deposited £758,000 with 32Red over more than two years. 32Red had failed to check whether the customer, who had a net income of £2,150 per month, could afford the bets despite several previous regulatory rulings in this area.
In 2019, the Advertising Standards Authority sanctioned 32Red for violating the "gambling advertising code."
32Red was fined £4.1 million by the Gambling Commission for failing Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and social responsibility regulations on 25 January 2023.
