Every Australian punter who has ever placed a bet has heard of Ladbrokes. The massive bookmaker agency began in the UK and spread throughout the world including an arm in Australia. Sports betting online with Ladbrokes allows one to place a bet on a wide range of sports both local and international. Sports betting markets are just as varied with all the usual suspects and a number of slightly off the wall options as well.
Humble Beginnings
Ladbrokes began in the UK in the 19th century as a bookmaker in London. Today the company has branches in Spain, Ireland, Belgium and Australia with a physical presence in many European countries in the way of actual bookmaker shops. The company is listed publicly on the London Stock Exchange, making it one of the biggest and most stable online bookmakers.
The ATM Advantage
One of the main differences between Ladbrokes and its competitors is that members can choose to apply for a Ladbrokes EFTPOS card. This card allows one to withdraw winnings from almost any ATM within a few minutes of said winnings appearing in their accounts. This card can be used to withdraw up to $1000 per day or be used to swipe for up to $2500 per day. Members can only withdraw winnings however in order to prevent money laundering.
Slick And Easy
Ladbrokes has one of the best interfaces on the market. Not only is it slick and good looking, but it is intuitive and easy to use. The sports navigation panel is on the left with the number of active markets to the right of each sport. A number of quick links can be found on the top of the screen to the left, proving punters with easy access to popular markets
The overall layout is striking with lots of opposite colours such as black and white. Options are easy to navigate and it is clear that a lot of thought has gone into the design of the site.
Another advantage to using Ladbrokes is the Quickbet option. This bypasses the traditional betting slip and allows one to place a wager with only three mouse clicks.
Horse Racing Bets And Odds Boost
Ladbrokes offers a comprehensive horse racing bets section with the ability to add an odds boost to a chosen runner. This odds boost enables you to boost the fixed odds of a particular selection of your choice once a day. The size of the boost depends on the fixed odds, resulting in the higher the odds the higher the boost.
Options and Specials
Ladbrokes offer a range of sports betting options from international sports such as the NHL to local leagues such as the AFL. Betting markets are just as varied with simple wagers such as moneyline to more complicated bets such as futures betting.
Mobile betting is also supported by the site with a number of sports betting mobile apps for a wide range of devices. This allows sports betting to be done by punters from almost anywhere in Australia, provided that they have a decent internet connection. Mobile betting apps from Ladbrokes also offer a range of specials and bonuses which often cannot be found anywhere else.
