Betfocus

To be able to do that, it’s going to need to do something a bit special though. We’re talking about a very saturated market in which a new brand will need to bring something unique to the table.

The purpose of this review is to see if it’s doing that, or at least showing signs of being able to do so in the near future. We’ll be evaluating all of the core factors to see if the platform is worth signing up with or if you’re better off heading somewhere else.

If you do like what you see and do decide to register an account, make sure you check out our guide to the BetFocus referral code beforehand.

First of all, before we go into detail on all of the usual criteria, here are some of the service’s main selling points which are advertised by the platform in an attempt to entice new customers:

Customers of this platform can wager on races from North America, Europe, South Africa, the Middle East, and Asia, in addition to those taking place more locally across Australia and New Zealand.

Whether it’s the Grand National in Great Britain or the Dubai World Cup, you can be sure you’ll find markets for it on this site.

As well as the standard debit and credit card options, BetFocus customers can use PayID to make payments on this betting site. This is one of Australia’s favourite new payment methods when it comes to gambling sites.

Withdrawals are processed twice a day on this site, which is at least double what you could expect from some of the site’s competitors.

As a result, you can expect fast payouts whenever you’re ready to cash out your winnings.

After you create an account with this Aussie betting service, you can sign in and find all of the promotions that are available to you in the Promotions section of the site. You can access this section by clicking the button that is positioned alongside the lists of sports in the horizontal menu beneath the “Racing” and “Sports” tabs.

Unfortunately, because of Australian law, we cannot advertise these promotions to you. You will need to register first. This is the same law that prevents the site from offering a welcome bonus, too.

Horse racing is the primary betting product on this site, as you would expect from an Australian betting brand.

In the horse racing section of the site, you can easily and quickly view all of the upcoming events, allowing you to access them and place your bets in an efficient manner.

In the top right-hand corner, you can see highlighted tabs that allow you to choose whether you just want local Australian racing events to show, or if you want international meetings to display on the page as well.

To aid you in your bet slip building process, you can use various tools and pieces of information, including Early Speeds, runner details, and track information.

Compared to many of its competitors, BetFocus does offer a decent range of sports betting categories. While many other sites just offer eight to ten options, this platform has gone a little further and added 15 options to choose from.

Here is the full list of sports that you can wager on after you sign up with BetFocus:

As you can see, all of the most popular Australian sports are covered. The likes of Australian rules, football, and cricket are where you will find the most betting markets.

Punters can wager on all of the racing exotics in addition to the standard Win and Place options. Quinella, Exacta, Trifecta, and First Four markets are also available.

Unfortunately, this site doesn’t show any clear sign of offering same-race multis at this time. Hopefully, it will be an option they choose to add soon.

BetFocus Australia offers a dedicated mobile betting app that customers of the site can use to place bets on the go, check scores, fixtures and results, make payments, and contact the customer service team.

The BetFocus app can be downloaded from your usual app store, whether that’s the Apple App Store or the Google Play Store.

Australian sites, with BetFocus included, don’t tend to offer a huge range of payment methods for customers to use when they’re making deposits and withdrawals.

This is usually fine with most punters, though, as long as the options that are available are accessible, secure, and free to use. Fortunately, this is the case with BetFocus, who allow customers to make payments using Visa, MasterCard, and PayID.

To see the contact options and get help from the customer service team whenever it is required, you simply need to click the “Help” button that is located right at the bottom of the side panel on the left-hand side of the page.

By doing so, you’ll reveal the links to the Live Chat feature - the best way to get in touch - and the “Contact Us” section, where you will find the current email address.

The customer service team is available every single day of the week between 09:00 and 21:30.
