Our rigorous 7-point testing methodology ensures every bookmaker is rated fairly and transparently.
Every bookmaker on AllBettingSites.com.au is assessed using our 7-point methodology. Each criterion is scored independently before being weighted into a composite score out of 10.
We compare fixed odds and tote returns across 50+ markets weekly. Bookmakers offering consistently competitive odds score higher. We pay particular attention to AFL, NRL, racing and cricket markets as these represent the majority of Australian betting turnover.
We test each bookmaker's iOS and Android app across 15 criteria including load speed, navigation, bet placement flow, account management and crash frequency. Over 85% of Australian punters bet on mobile, making this a critical factor.
We count the number of sports, leagues, and individual markets available. We also assess the depth of same-game multi options and prop bet variety. Bookmakers with broader coverage across Australian and international sports score higher.
We test cash out functionality across different bet types and market conditions. We assess partial cash out options, auto cash out triggers and the reliability of quoted cash out prices. We also evaluate other features like live betting performance and bet builder tools.
We track ongoing promotions, loyalty programs and boost offers. We assess the genuine value of each offer, not just the headline figure. Bookmakers with consistent, fair promotions score higher than those with aggressive welcome offers but poor ongoing value.
We contact each bookmaker's support team via live chat, email and phone (where available) with standardised test questions. We measure response times, resolution quality and availability hours.
We assess the quality and accessibility of each bookmaker's responsible gambling features, including deposit limits, loss limits, time-out options, self-exclusion tools and reality check reminders.
We conduct full re-testing of every bookmaker quarterly. Between full reviews, we monitor for significant changes such as new feature launches, odds policy changes, or app updates that may affect the score. If a material change occurs, we update the rating immediately rather than waiting for the quarterly cycle.
