Betfair's Aussie Request

Betfair is one of the largest international online casino betting outlets in the world. The company has a corner on the betting market and has developed a strong relationship of trust not only with gamblers, but with individual governments as well. Betfair is a clear leader in the market and the company is particularly well equipped for the task in terms of tracking software. Rather than just offering up wagering and betting on sports, Betfair has taken an incredibly socially responsible position and tracks betting patterns to ensure that online casinos, betting and gambling are not compromising the integrity of the sports on which players are betting. In a bold move that has a lot of critics focusing on Betfair, the company’s key Australian leader, Andrew Thwaites, is calling for a national betting register in the country.

Thwaites contends that the only way for Australia to truly track bets and fight corruption in the sports is through a central betting account system. All players who want to gamble on a sporting game in the country would have to first jump through all of the hoops necessary to register for an account – ie verifying name, address and full player identity. Australia has made headlines because of the country’s treatment of the offshore online casino gambling industry and this new approach to betting is going over just about as well as the internet gambling suggestions.

The case is fair though and not at all comparable to the online casinos, Betfair is accurate in assumptions, with a national betting account register the government and sporting organizations would have a more clear ability to track the IP addresses and wagering of all Aussie citizens, ensuring that members of the AFL and other organizations are not participating in the corruption of the game.
