Betting advertising is about to be banned in Australia

21 Apr 2017

Although the Australian betting market seems to rise, there are lots of setbacks that block the further expansion of the betting industry in the territory. One of them is the latest decision that was taken by the Australian government, which will move to ban all betting advertising during sports broadcasts as early as next week. Communications Minister Mitch Fifeld is about to ban on all forms of gambling marketing during sports broadcasts on any public medium. But there is another factor, the great losses that will occur to the sports network, after this decision. In order to relax them, the government will make a… fair trade by lowering licensing fees for them.

The executives of the AFL (Aussie Rules) and NRL (Rugby League) commented that this decision is not meant to last long enough, it is impossible for the government not to have any reactions. This decision was in talks since 2013, when for the first time the Australian government debated whether to ban gambling advertising during sports broadcasts, in order to minimize as much as possible the gambling risks.

Bookmakers rating

In order to correctly estimate a bookmakers rating, you have to include the value of the offered odds, the variety and speed of transactions as well as their customer support. The invaluable experience we have gained from cooperating with some of the most respected betting firms, has shown us that each customer deserves a strict but fair judgement on every bookmaker.

Odds comparison

The average payout for most major football leagues stands at 95%, but a curious player may often find profitable opportunities. Pinnacle offers quite a lot of them, with the average payout on some of the top leagues standing at a huge 98%, while 1xbet offers the highest spreads on every major league.

Mobile Betting

Mobile betting is spreading to such an extent that it will soon exceed the common way of wagering through a personal computer. It currently stands at a huge 30%, with the market's trend showing that it will overlap computers by 2018.

Bonus

Every bookmaker will offer bonuses and promotions, to new and existing members. They can range from a standard 100% sign up bonus to a cash back event from a major football event, such as a moneyback offer on the UEFA Champions League Final. You can find every single detail about any betting company's bonus and promotion on our website as well as compare bookmakers based on their betting bonus. Make sure to regularly check the bonus & promo sections to receive information concerning any new offers.

Trust

Although it might seem tempting to sign up to an unverified bookmaker that offers profitable odds, or even no commision, in most cases you will be caught in a scam and lose all your money. It is far prefferable to choose a well known and respected bookmaker, that has obtained a license under a strict regulatory body. This way, you can be easily assisted through a full customer support and rest assured that you can withdraw your money at any time.
