They offer six funding methods: Visa and MasterCard, Moneybookers, PayPal, bank transfer, BPAY and POLi. Withdrawals can be made in the form of bank transfers, BPAY, cheque, PayPal and Moneybookers.

One feature sure to endear them to punters of all stripes is that there are no transaction fees regardless of funding or withdrawal method. $30 is all that is required as a minimum opening deposit and one dollar is the minimum for online betting with the requirements of wagers being placed in one dollar increments, except for exotics where the minimum drops to $0.25.

Typical of many online bookmakers, Sportingbet requires a 1x turnover on both deposits and any earned bonus credits.

They don't offer credit betting at this stage.

Margins are about average for online Australian bookmakers and it should be noted that the variance in margins amongst bookmakers was minimal to a degree that would have little impact on any but the most hard-core punters.

They have no dormant account fees. Maximum payout for a online wager is $50,000 and all multiple wagers max out at 2500 times the amount wagered.

They have perhaps the most extensive selection of mobile applications, supporting the iPhone, Ipad and Android operating systems.

The website layout features a drop-down menu as opposed to a permanently visible menu, which takes a little getting used to, but it's certainly no major hindrance.

Single and multi-bets can be combined on the same betting slip and it is easy, due to it's highly detailed nature, to view markets, selections and bet types. Join Now and claim your Bonus $200 bet.

Sportingbet features most Australian tracks and events, as well as some international races. Win/Place and exotics are offered along with both tote and fixed odds on selected races.

On certain events, they offer a program known as "Maxidiv Gold," where if you pick a winner, each length your horse wins by multiplies your winnings by 5%.

Sportingbet, catering as it does to an Australian audience, seems well aware of what Australian punters deem significant in an online betting service.
