What's The Best Sports Betting Site?

There are many great Australian sports betting sites available for you to join - so many, in fact, that choosing the right one for you can feel like a daunting task. The good news is that we have done the hard work for you with our reviews of all of the best Australian sports betting apps and sites.

All of the sports betting websites listed on our website are licenced to operate in Australia - this is important as it provides protections for you as the consumer. We recommend that you avoid any unregulated sites that operate overseas as they carry more risk.

A good sports betting site will have a great range of betting markets, competitive odds and enticing betting promotions. Some may even stream live sports. They should also provide excellent customer support and good deposit/withdrawal options. Check out our sportsbook reviews and make sure you click through the links and banners on our site when you join!

How Can I Get a Free Bonus Bet?

Australian bookmakers can no longer offer free bets or deposit bonuses to attract new customers. Mind you, sportsbooks can still run these promotions - they just can't advertise them to the public. Bonus bets must be advertised to existing customers only.

So if you're looking to join one of the new sports betting sites, you should do so based on that site's features, not its bonuses. In fact, if you see an advertisement for a site that will give you a free bet if you sign up, it's likely an offshore sportsbook and not a regulated Australian company.

Our experts have curated an extensive list of reviews of the Best Australian Sports Betting Sites. Promotions are among the criteria used to rate these sites. We'd encourage you to compare the different pros and cons of each and find the best fit for you and your preferences. These bookmakers might offer you a bonus bet in the future, after you become a customer.
