Top esports betting apps in Australia

There are two main types of betting apps that Australian access esports betting sites with — these being Android betting apps and iOS betting apps.

For the complete beginners, esports betting apps are small software downloads that you can get on your smartphones and tablets, with these giving you a stack of features and instant access to thousands of daily betting odds.

Android betting apps, unlike in other countries where sports betting is not legal, can be downloaded directly from the Google Play store after you have become a member at your chosen bookmaker.

Apple smartphone users are in the same boat, with it possible to download esports betting apps from the App Store after you have registered an account at your chosen esports betting site.

Just like a bookmaker’s desktop website, esports betting apps give you instant access to all of the features associated with the brand, including a bevy of banking options, daily promotions on Australian sports and of course, all of the customer service options you would find in other versions of the bookmaker.

Promotions at esports betting sites

While Australians are heavily restricted when it comes to esports betting promotions, there are some offers that can be advertised to consumers, who are already a member at their chosen bookmaker. These esports betting promotions generally are things like multi-bet cash back offers or cash back deals on selected matches or events.

Often these esports betting site promotions can be claimed just by becoming a member at the website, while some others will require a promo code to activate the offer, although this can be even rarer in the Australian gambling space.

Generally esports betting promotions come with wagering requirements on any bonus bets received, meaning you have to turn the money over a certain amount of times before you can cash it out as real money. Overall, Some in summary, esports betting promotions are hard to come by in the Australian bookmaker scene, but they do exist, when you look hard enough.

Withdrawals at Australian esports betting sites

Australian esports betting sites generally have more limited options when it comes to withdrawing your funds from your bookie account to your bank or web wallet account.

For instance, Neds, one of the most popular esports betting sites, only allows their customers to cash out using bank transfers and Paypal.

Withdrawals generally happen overnight at esports betting sites, although this is determined by how long it takes for your chosen bookmaker to process your cashout request.

Other betting sites in Australia can allow you to withdraw back to your bank card, like Visa, however in recent times we have not seen this option available as much.

There are limited fees when you do a bank transfer in Australia, with Neds processing cashouts for free, although there could be a small fee when you make a withdrawal using a service like Paypal or Neteller.

Welcome bonuses & freebets at Australian betting sites

Australians unfortunately are not able to have esports betting bonus offers and free bet offers marketed to them, because of local laws, which restrict new account incentives. This means things like esports betting sign up bonuses cannot be marketed to Australians on EsportBet.com.

This ban on bookmaker welcome bonuses and offers falls under the National Consumer Protection Framework for Online Wagering, which was enacted into law in 2019 and came into effect in 2020. While these laws outlawing the marketing of sign up bonuses and welcome offers at esports betting sites, in a practical sense it is very much up for debate how much impact they had on the average punter.

While Australian esports betting sites offers are not allowed to be marketed at prospective customers, many still do have online bookmaker freebets available to existing customers. This means it always pays to hold accounts at multiple esports betting sites.
