Palmerbet Review

One of the more well-known Australian-owned bookies, Palmerbet has offered a solid product down under since 2013. The site is the brainchild of Grant, Matthew and Adrian Palmer, grandchildren to veteran local NSW bookie Ted Palmer.

Touching stories and family histories aside, Palmerbet is a good option if you're looking for an honest betting site tailored to the Australian player. Palmerbet consistently features top Australian races and sports and offers plenty of popular features like same game/race multis, cash out, special bets as well as full form guides, previews, tips, and stats.

Depending on the bet, Palmerbet has similar or higher odds than most bookies along with higher betting limits, faster payments processing and local Australian customer support options

Overall, Palmerbet offers odds for 30+ different sports including top US and European professional leagues as well as domestic and international racing. We're also impressed by the range of props, futures, weekly specials, and other unique betting markets offered by Palmerbet for a range of big races and sports events (like the NFL, NBA, AFL, NRL, and EPL).

With some pretty aggressive odds (including $1.95 lines), the ability to save your favorite leagues and events to your profile, and a really well-designed betting app this bookie would make a great addition to any punter's toolbox.

Why we like Palmerbet ✅

• Palmerbet has above average odds including special $1.95 lines
• Palmerbet offers extensive form guides, betting previews & live streaming
• Palmerbet is more generous with 20+ weekly promos

Why we don't like Palmerbet ❌

• Palmerbet offers no live chat
• Palmerbet's navigation isn't great - you may have to click around to find your odds

• Palmerbet App
• Palmerbet Racing
• Palmerbet Sports
• Palmerbet Payment Options
• Palmerbet Contact Info
• Palmerbet Features
• Using Palmerbet

The Palmerbet app has many of the same benefits and pitfalls as the Palmberbet website. So, overall a quality choice with great features and options but some areas for improvement.

First off, you'll find the Palmerbet app on the App Store and Google Play Store so getting your hand on it is a breeze.

Next, the Palmerbet app is fast, pretty straightforward but can still be cumbersome when you're trying to find more niched prop or special bets. However, cash out, same game multis, and other features are pretty easy to access.

While the live betting interface could do with an upgrade, we do really appreciate things like the ability to save leagues to your favourites section which makes finding the bets you want much easier.

Also worth noting is the helpful Australian support team (although there is no live chat option), the unique betting options and aggressive odds, plus the fast withdrawals and detailed previews, comments, and tips you'll get for big races and sports matches.

Palmerbet App Cons ❌

• Verification is hard via the app
• No live chat or live streaming
• Navigation could be better
• May be late to add markets

Palmerbet, like many Aussie-owned bookies, puts a lot of energy into their racing section.

Palmerbet has many extra features for the bigger horse racing events including predictors, speedmaps, early speed indicators, race & runner comments and full form guides

Palmerbet also offers everything from high fixed Win/Place odds to exotics like Quinellas, Exactas, Trifectas, First Fours, and Quadrellas as well as Same Race Multis, Mystery Bets, Best Tote & Top Fluc odds.

Palmerbet has a variety of racing futures options too and even accepts requests from punters who want to place a racing outright.

Palmerbet covers all Aussie and NZ races across all three codes along with a variety of international meets (although fewer international events than some bigger bookies).

Another positive for racing minded punters is the Palmerbet Blog which has daily racing tips and previews along with the help centre which beginners can use for more information on placing certain types of bets or understanding racing lingo.

Palmerbet gives Aussies access to over 30 different sports, hundreds of different Australian and international leagues with 100 to 200 unique betting options for the biggest leagues (think AFL, NRL, EPL, NBA, and NFL).

Palmerbet can have the best odds of any Australian betting site from time to time (depending on your bet) with special $1.95 lines a common sight.

Particularly impressive are Palmerbet's special betting markets including futures, player and team specials, time markets, booking markets, penalty markets, doubles, and triples which offer punters unique betting options with great prices.

Palmerbet offers odds on everything from darts and cycling to esports, snooker, and futsal although you can expect fewer betting options for these sports than for things like basketball, footy, cricket, soccer, rugby, and American football.

A couple of things that we reckon could be better are the navigation through Palmerbet's sports section - it can take a few clicks to find the betting market you want - as well as Palmerbet's live betting options which are very limited.

However, after using the site for a while you'll have no trouble placing a weekly multi or punt - we particularly appreciate the ability to save your favourite leagues for easier navigation.

Palmerbet may not have all of the payment options that are available on other bigger betting sites but this is to be expected from a smaller Aussie-owned bookie.

Palmerbet withdrawal options are particularly sparse.

Still, we've found that Palmerbet's payments are processed a lot quicker than many other bookies (and quicker than advertised). Palmerbet payments are also secured by the latest 2048-bit encryption technology for your peace of mind.

• PayPal (Instant)
  
• POLi (Instant)
• BPAY (48 hours)
• Osko (48 hours)
• Credit Card (Instant)
• Bank Transfer (48 hours)

The Palmerbet minimum deposit amount is $10 for most payment methods, $25 for BPAY, and is dependent on your bank when depositing via bank transfer.

• Bank Transfer (48 hours)
• Credit Card (2-3 business days)

Palmerbet withdrawals are processed at 2pm every business day. Palmerbet's minimum withdrawal amount is $10 but you must have verified your account before requesting a Palmerbet withdrawal.

Palmerbet's customer service team is available via phone, email, or post if you're still living in the 1900's.

In general, we found that Palmerbet's customer support team is quick to reply and very knowledgeable.

While they don't have a live chat option, Palmerbet's customer support centre is staffed by friendly Aussies so expect a good experience should you need help.

Palmerbet knows what Aussie bettors want and so Palmerbet has plenty of racing and sports betting features to make betting more fun, to help you make more informed bets, and to give you more ways to bet.

Many of the Palmerbet betting features below can only be used for bigger races and sports leagues - so don't expect to place a same game multi on U21 Japanese Table Tennis or to get a speedmap for Tuesday night harness racing in Sweden.

The Palmerbet website and apps should be pretty straightforward for any punter who has used a betting site before.

Like most bookies, Palmerbet displays featured events and the races and sports that are 'next to go' on the homepage.

From here you can select an event, use the menu or type an event into the search bar to find your betting event.

After selecting an event, you'll generally see the Win/Place odds for races and the Match Result odds for sports but you can see more markets by using the filters at the top of the page or by selecting a certain game.

To access some of the features of the Palmerbet website like the blog (for previews and tips), the FAQ section (for help), your account (for deposits and withdrawals), or Same Game/Race Multis use the sidebar menu.

Note that exotics, predictions, speedmaps, runner comments, and form guides are available for all the biggest horse and greyhound races by selecting the relevant tabs when viewing a meet.

Unfortunately, Australian betting regulations do not permit us to advertise any Palmerbet sign up bonuses or promotions.

You will have to be logged into your Palmerbet account to see your Palmerbet promotions and bonuses

That's because the law states that inducements like betting bonuses can only be shown to existing players and because you may or may not have a Palmerbet account already, we have to assume that you don't.
