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.
