WellBet Review

WellBet is a trendy betting site that launched in 2023 that is optimised with the upcoming betting software BetCloud and is a member of the Victorian Bookmakers Association. The website/app has a beachy Aussie resort theme, which is relevant enough as they offer Australian racing and sports that are popular in Australia. E.g. AFL, NRL, Soccer etc. There is little future betting with WellBet, the racing markets offered are a maximum of three days away, and the sports matches offered we found are for no more than a month out - or just the current round that the sport is in.

There is no Same Game Multi available, and the sports markets are quite limited with no individual player markets (besides tennis). The racing markets WellBet offer are fixed only and basic with no quaddie or Same Race Multis. There is no Tote betting with WellBet.

The fixed odds are higher at WellBet, but they are missing out on racing products like Best of the Best and Top Fluc.

WellBet is still in their infancy period and missing key features like form guide, speed map, live streaming, tips, black book and race overview - but with the effort that has gone into the graphics and efficiency of their site and app, we expect them to have some features and more markets soon. In their words they are building the "betting experience of tomorrow", so keep an eye out with us to see what they have in store.

Why we like WellBet ✅

• WellBet has high odds in Australian racing and sports markets they offer - including AFL, NRL & NBA
• WellBets website/app has a clean interface that is easy to navigate between betting options
• WellBet has a fast multi builder that is seamless for up to 20 legs

Why we don't like WellBet ❌

• WellBet is missing some betting options like Same Game/Race Multi
• WellBet deposit method is credit/debit card only

• Punting on Racing with WellBet
• Punting on Sports with WellBet
• Using the WellBet App
• WellBet Support and Withdrawal Times

WellBet offers all Australian racing across the three codes (thoroughbreds, greyhound, harness) and a handful of international meets in popular racing countries such as UK and Ireland. WellBet provides their own fixed odds for all racing with no Tote offerings, so there is no Best Tote + SP, Top Fluc or Best of the Best. The racing markets are limited with WellBet and the ones offered include:

• Win
• Place
• Exacta
• Quinella
• Trifecta (Boxed, Straight)
• First Four (Boxed, Straight)

What are the Racing Odds like for WellBet?

While WellBet is missing out on the Tote products, we have found their odds to be consistently high across the three codes in comparison to other betting sites with top odds.

WellBet only offers sports that are mainstream in Australia as listed below, with options only from the popular leagues in most sports. The exception is for Soccer, where WellBet has a decent selection of over 10 leagues in Australia and internationally to bet on:

• AFL
• American Football
• Baseball
• Basketball
• Cricket
• Darts
• Rugby League
• Rugby Union
• Soccer
• Tennis

WellBet offers limited betting options for the sports they provide, with no player betting options and only score related betting options, including:

• Win/Draw
• Handicaps
• Margins
• Odd/Even
• Quarter/Half/Full Markets

Can I place a Multi or Same Game Multi with WellBet?

You can place a Multi with WellBet, but currently there is no option for Same Game Multi. The Multi builder allows up to 20 legs, which makes WellBet a great option for Multis. Although, the maximum payout for a Multi is $40k - so don’t go too bananas with roughies, or you’ll be disappointed when it gets up.

What are the Sports Odds like for WellBet?

Just like in racing, WellBet offers competitive odds for their limited sports markets that are in line (and is some cases better), to other bookmakers that we've noted as having high odds.

We found the WellBet app to be reliable and very similar to the website, but a bit slower than the site. The app is missing key features of its competitors like live streaming, sporting and racing insights.

The ratings of the app are 3.1/5 and 4.3/5, from the Apple Store and the Google Play Store respectively.

WellBet App Pros ✅

• Free to download
• Modern look
• Available on iOS and Android
• Reliable and easy to use
• High multi builder up to 20 legs

WellBet App Cons ❌

• Few features (no live streaming, speed map or insights)
• Lack of deposit & withdrawal methods
• Not many sports markets, like the website

Most of the negative reviews for the app on the Apple and Google Play store, are primarily focusing on the lack of promos/markets and the customer support - which we found to be fine as detailed in the next section.

Most users (along with us) found the app to be reliable, but like the site, there are not as many sports or markets that you'd expect from Bet365, such as Table Tennis or Winter Sports.

Support

WellBet does not have many support options available, with only the option of Live Chat or email. Although, we cannot fault their responsiveness as we found their chat support to respond to our enquiries at the latest 5 mins - and once was Wednesday night at 8:30pm with only a few races left.

Withdrawals

WellBet withdrawals are done only by bank transfer and take up to 1-3 business days to reach your account.
