4.2.7 - On-course betting

Applies to:

All non-remote general betting licences.

Social responsibility code

Compliance with these is a condition of licences; therefore any breach of them by an operator may lead the Commission to review the operator’s licence with a view to suspension, revocation or the imposition of a financial penalty and would also expose the operator to the risk of prosecution.

1. When providing facilities for betting on-course, licensees must display on their ‘joints’ in an intelligible format:

   1. any rules that differ from the relevant racecourse rules on betting, such as Tattersalls’ ‘Rules on Betting’¹;
   2. any types of unorthodox bets accepted (such as forecast betting, betting without the favourite, distance betting etc);
   3. whether win-only or each way bets are accepted;
   4. any concessions or bonuses offered;
   5. all of the runners and the odds available to the public;
   6. the operator’s trading name;
   7. the minimum bet accepted; and
   8. any applicable maximum payout.

2. Licensees operating within the ring at horserace tracks² must issue customers with a betting slip or ticket for each transaction accepted. Betting slips or tickets must include the following information:

   1. operator’s name and contact details;
   2. race day name or code, date and race number;
   3. name and/or number of the selection;
   4. the stake, odds and potential return or whether the bet will be settled according to Starting Price; and
   5. the type of bet.

3. Any special rules which have been agreed in relation to a particular bet must not be overridden by any conflicting rules or subsequent rule changes.
