BaggyBet Review

Established in 2021, BaggyBet has been running a website together with an app under Northern Territory Racing commission since 2022. It seems to have established itself somewhat comfortably in this area of betting. Its main strength is clearly offering betting on both national and international horse racing events. On top of this you will find a variety of sports from American football to tennis.

But that’s about where the positives end. The company website is lacklustre when it comes to any sort of information. There is no separate help section, instead it is integrated into live chat, and currently only consists of one example article. There is no information on availability of live chat nor email support. The selection on sports is somewhat lacking too, only covering some of the majors.

Pros & Cons

  • Great selection of racing
  • Plenty of betting types
  • Easy-to-use website
  • Small selection of sports
  • Lack of information and help
  • Only a few payment methods

The company is approved and licensed, but beyond that they do not offer much information. BaggyBet seems to operate under two companies, with one established in 2021 and the other in 2023. The larger company is run under Mailbag Wagering. As the company is properly registered and licensed, players should have no trouble withdrawing their wins, or receiving help from proper authorities in case any issues arise. On the other hand, don’t expect to know much else about this company.
It’s also worth mentioning that the site has been fined for sending marketing materials to an unregistered person to open a betting account, bonus offers to self-excluded customers, and failing to recognise signs of problem gambling.

Payment Methods

Deposit Methods

  • Debit CardInstant
  • POLIInstant
  • Direct DepositInstant

BaggyBet offers a very minimal list of possible deposit methods. Compared to most other bookmakers, the list is very lacking and leaves players with the choice of using debit cards, Poli, or direct deposit. This is by no means ideal or even close to ideal, especially when combined with the fact that there is very little information on the site, which means that you don’t even know how long to expect your deposits to take.
On the plus side, they do not charge any fees. It’s best to note that whilst credit cards are still mentioned on the site, their use for gambling purposes has been banned in Australia.

Withdrawal Methods

  • EFT / Bank Transfer48-72 hours

Nothing is mentioned about supported withdrawal methods, which basically just leaves bank transfers. Just as with deposits, no fee is charged for making withdrawals by the site itself. Your bank might charge fees, but that’s not something the company can control. There are no time limits mentioned.
BaggyBet follows KYC procedures, which means that customers need to always keep their account details up to date. In case of withdrawals and wins, you might need to supply proof of payment methods and address. In some cases, such identity checks can be done automatically.
