Sports betting guide
Place free bets with Bet Australia – your number one sports betting website.
The huge upsurge in the popularity of sports betting has been aided immeasurably by the rise of the internet, which has opened up the pastime to a whole new audience. Over the past decade, sports betting has moved away from being something that is enjoyed exclusively by men in high street bookmakers and become an online phenomenon that everyone can take part in.
Today, you can enjoy sports betting from the comfort of your own home through a huge selection of top online bookmarkers, made up of many names which will be familiar to you from the high street alongside some newer faces who have entered the sports betting market over the past few years.
Sports betting websites
The birth of online bookmakers and sites which allow people to place sports bets quickly and easily has facilitated the explosion in exposure that sports betting has seen. Whereas before, punters had to hunt out the nearest betting shop to have a flutter, now they can just fire up their computers and log on to the internet equivalent.
Competition is fierce between online bookies – the growth of the internet and online sports betting means there's a bigger purse up for grabs than ever before – meaning punters are perfectly placed to soak up the beneficial side-effects of this battle between sports betting websites – namely, special offers, promotions and – everyone's favourite – free bets.
Best online bookmakers
Most of the leading bookies have got a website where you can get special, internet-only offers and promotions that could see you saving or a few dollars or, if you're lucky, picking up a few more if your result comes in the way you want. Bet Australia has strong links with a string of top online bookmakers, allowing us to bring you the best odds and deals across a range of sports.
Sports betting is still by far the most popular form of wagering at Australian bookmakers, unsurprisingly for a country with such a proud heritage in sports such as cricket and rugby. Every year, sports betting websites see thousands of dollars worth of wagers placed on everyday sporting events right up to classic such as the AFL premiership, the Melbourne cup and of course The Ashes.
Free sports betting
Thanks to the relationships we have with all the best online bookmakers, we can provide free bets on a number of sports and sporting events, giving you the opportunity to bag a winner without laying out a single cent. We do all the hard work and list all of the latest free bets offers, so you don't have to trawl the internet looking for them.
Not only that, but because we spend every day tirelessly searching through the top online bookmakers to bring you the very latest promotions, you can also enjoy the mouthwatering opportunity to place free bets on your favourite sports betting sites, on sports ranging from cricket and tennis through to Aussie rules and horse racing.
Free sports betting promotions give you a killer opportunity to try out a new online bookmaker or place a wager which would normally be a risk (Western Bulldogs to beat Hawthorn, anyone?) without the fear of losing any money. Even better still, free bets promotions let you enjoy sports betting at no cost while taking advantage of the same odds and chances to win big cash prizes enjoyed by punters who have put money down.
Sports betting types
You can enjoy many types of sports betting such as horse racing bets, cricket, AFL and rugby with bet Australia. You can also put on all the same types of wager that you would expect to in a regular bookies.
