Betfair - Pros and Cons
| Website | |
 |
The Betfair website is one of the more intuitively designed we've seen with simple betslip management and bet placement. Easy to lay bets off also. |
 |
Can be PC hungry if you don't have the fastest of rigs. |
| Markets & Odds | |
|
Because Betfair punters back and lay against each other, there is no profit margin for the bookie to take, so the odds available at Betfair are the best around. |
|
Again because of the better odds on offer at Betfair, we've seen that certain horse racing systems that otherwise wouldn't be profitable, become profitable - especially if backing longer odds. |
|
Sometimes there isn't a lot of liquidity in Australian racing markets. |
| Services & Products | |
|
As discussed, Betfair's betting products and services are unsurpassed in Australia. They are always introducing innovative new products which keep them ahead of the competition. |
 |
The concept of backing and laying may be difficult to understand at first, but once mastered, you may never want to use a traditional bookmaker again. |
| Free Bets & Promotions | |
|
Due to new government legislation, Betfair are unable to offer Free Bets in VIC, NSW and SA. |
