Bottom Line
The BoomBet brand name is new, but this online bookmaker is one of the oldest in Australia, with its Sportsbetting.com.au heritage dating back to 1998. The interface is fast and works well, plus the sports and racing services will suit most punters’ needs. What really sets BoomBet apart, however, is its innovative HOT Bet feature, which enables members to copy the bets of winning punters and professionals. Appended to this feature is the fact that any punter can turn supplier for tips to earn commissions.
