Premium memberships FAQs
Find answers to common questions about horse tipping and our services.
What’s the difference between Free and Premium?
Free members can view the first three races at each track. Premium members get access to every race at every Australian meeting.
Is there a lock-in contract?
No. All memberships can be cancelled at any time before the next renewal.
Can I try Premium before committing long-term?
Yes. You can try Premium with a 7-day pass, which gives you full access without any long-term commitment.
If you want a bit more time to follow the tips, you can also choose the monthly plan, which gives you full access for the entire month.
All memberships can be cancelled at any time. If you cancel, you’ll still keep access until the end of your current billing period.
There are lots of free horse racing and sports betting tips available on TV and online, why should I pay for tips?
Websites, television shows and other services that provide free tips are typically affiliated with, and paid by, betting services. Online betting services use these affiliate services as a method of customer acquisition and are paid based on their customers losing money with the bookmakers. Free bet services are becoming prevalent on social media platforms like Facebook and Instagram, offering free sports betting and free horse racing tips to generate more customers for the betting service.
These services will have the occasional winner along the way but are typically paid a percentage of the customers losing bets by the bookmaker. Given the conflict of interests, it’s important to carry a healthy amount of scepticism when relying on free tips.
Horse Racing Tips Australia has offered free and a paid premium service since 2014. Because our Premium Members keep the service running, we are incentivized to provide the best tips possible.
Why is Horse Racing Tips Australia different to other Betting Services?
The most important difference between Horse Racing Tips Australia and other betting services is we provide ratings selections for all races, rather than a small number of bets each Saturday. This has three advantages:
- Services that provide a limited number of win bets each day tend to influence market prices if the service is good (and if they are bad, you shouldn’t be a customer!) This makes it difficult for punters to make a profit as they can never achieve the same odds the services have assessed the bets at (and report against), meaning their customers don’t see the same profits as the service does. By providing ratings for all races, our service has minimal impact on market prices, giving Premium Members the best chance to find value.
- By providing four selections for all races, the HRTA ratings provides the opportunity for Premium Members to bet using a variety of bet types, not just win bets. If you like the thrill of exotics, the value of long shots or low-risk Dutch betting, our service is flexible enough to keep you betting exactly how you like to bet – just with more winners!
- Getting told to place 5 or 10 bets a day takes the fun out of punting; you may not understand why those are “good” bets or they may be inconsistent with your betting strategy, they may not even be for a race you’re interested in watching. Whether you’re a professional punter, at the local track with friends or just having a beer with mates at the Pub, we give you the information you need so you can bet on any race you want.
Importantly, we are a totally independent service not affiliated with any bookmakers or corporations, so our customers best interests are our priority.
To see how the Horse Racing Tips Australia service works in real-time, we offer 1week trials for only $25 or join up to one of our great value Premium Membership plans.
What is included in a Premium Membership?
Becoming a Premium Member gives you:
- Race Selections for every race, every day, across Australia. This includes ratings for all group races, and other highlights of the racing calendar like the Magic Millions Classics and The Everest Sprint.
- Best Bets. These include, Exacta of the Day, Where the Money Is, Long Shot of the Day, Multi of the Day and Quaddie of the Day. We don’t post Best Bets every day – we only publish them when we identify bets that meet our criteria.
- Specials (*). Horses that are a class above the other horses in the race and should be winning.
Our Premium Member service has been running since 2014 and we are proud to say that some of the original Premium Members are still using the service today. We would love to have you on board enjoying consistent winners each day.
If you want to become a Premium Member today, you can choose your Premium Membership plan on the Membership page.
