Olympic Betting Australia

Most sports betting sites will automatically try to verify your account based on the information you provide when signing up. If this is unsuccessful you will have to manually verify your account within 3 days, or it will be suspended.

Basically, you just have to submit a copy/photo of your driver's licence, passport or other ID document(s). This process normally takes a couple of days but don't worry, we explain account verification in each of our reviews and the betting site that you choose will also help you along.

Head to 'My Account' and/or the 'Deposit/Withdraw' section of your account on the betting site that you are using. From here select your payment method, enter your account info and follow the on-screen instructions. Payment specifics vary by betting site and method, but Visa and Mastercard debit cards are available at all betting sites.

Please note: Once you deposit money into your account with a betting site, that money must be turned over before it is able to be withdrawn. In other words, every cent you have deposited, you will need to bet with before you can ask for a withdrawal. Some betting sites may have turn over odds requirements that you must satisfy before they allow you a withdrawal, such as minimum 1.80 odds.

This is more common for bonus money (money the bookmaker may give you to match your deposit), but it is rare for your initial deposit.

To place a bet you'll want to make sure you have funds in your account, which you can do with your debit card, or more options depending on the bookmaker.

After that, you'll want to find Olympics by going to the sports section by using the menu or the search bar on the betting site homepage.

Next, select the specific Olympic sport that you want to bet on by clicking on it, and then select the market you want to bet on by tapping the odds displayed. From here, enter your bet amount in your bet slip and click 'Place Bet' or the equivalent button.

To withdraw any winnings, you will go to the same spot where you deposited funds, and choose withdrawal method. Bank transfer is the most common and is possible with all Aussie bookmakers.

Please note: Bookmakers will only allow you to withdraw if you have verified your account, and may ask for extra details. They will happily take your money prior to this. If you are abiding their rules, they have to pay you.
