Our review of the bookmaker Unibet has been updated to incorporate our September 2021 bookmaker margins and markets survey.
The updated odds and markets details are as follows:
Bookmaker Margin
The bookmaker margin (overround) is a measure of the bookmaker’s profit margin for an event and is a hidden transaction cost for punters. This profit is how bookmakers finance their services but bookmakers vary in the margins they apply. From a punter’s perspective, the lower the margin, the better.
Unibet Australia recorded the second lowest racing margin and the lowest sports margin in our latest bookmaker margin survey. The average racing margin was 27.8% compared to the survey average of 29.8%, while Unibet’s average sports margin was 5.0% compared to the survey average of 5.7%.
Unibet also topped the survey for the number of instances in which it offered uniquely the best odds for a particular sports selection.
The results highlight the fact that a Unibet membership is a must for those who like to shop around for the best odds.
