Betting Sites Coming Soon To Australia

We’re tracking new betting sites closely, this page is dedicated to the stable of bookmakers coming soon in Australia. We’ve done some digging on each operator: licence holders, potential launch dates, software. Some yield more information than others, but we’ve done the leg work to provide you with a bit more than the bare-bones info.

If you’re looking for an active operator to punt with today, you won’t find that on this page. Instead you should check out our full list of all bookmakers in Australia.

To stay in the loop, sign up to our email list – we’ll notify you anytime a new bookie goes live.

Australia Betting Sites Next To Go (Updated August 6, 2026)

The best starting point for tracking Australian bookmakers is the ACMA’s operator lookup page. Bit of a pain to use though as there’s no way to filter between active sites, closed ones, or soon-to-launch operators. That’s where we come in. We keep tabs on the full register and check it regularly for anything new.

Every bookie below either holds a valid Australian sports betting licence, or is connected to a licensed entity, but hasn’t launched their website yet. All data is pulled directly from the ACMA register, last updated August 5, 2026.

BetaBets

Betabets is registered to William Graham under a VGCCC licence, ABN 53 682 006 126. The same ABN carries a second business name, BetStride, which had a short run on BetCloud software from October 2025 through to May 2026 before quietly shutting up shop. The betabets.com.au domain is registered but currently serves a 404, no launch date announced. If it does make it live, expect another BetCloud build.

BetAces

BetAces is registered to Carl Millett, licensed through Liquor & Gaming NSW, and the domain betaces.com.au is now live with a “Coming Soon” message. Oddly, BetAces doesn’t appear as a registered business name on Millett’s ABR profile (ABN 54 765 194 405), or anywhere else on the ABR for that matter. Most likely the paperwork’s just a skip behind, the licence is sorted and the holding page suggests a launch isn’t far off.

Betaroo

Betaroo Pty Ltd holds the licence for Betaroo, registered through the VGCCC under ABN 39 690 501 467. Who’s actually behind the company is still a mystery, there’s nothing obvious on the ABR linking Betaroo Pty Ltd to any existing Aussie operator. The betaroo.com.au domain is registered but only serving a generic GoDaddy landing page right now, which usually means the launch is still some way off. We wouldn’t tip this one as next through the door.

Bet Bunker

Bet Bunker is a private partnership between two genuine Victorian on-course bookies, Warren Woodcock and Vin Moriarty, licensed through the VGCCC and Racing Victoria. The book went live on 06/08/2026 at betbunker.com.au with markets across racing, greyhounds and sport. It runs on PuntersTech software, nothing groundbreaking, but the blokes behind this one are the real deal. We’ve pulled together everything we know in our full Bet Bunker review.

BetFans

BetFans Pty Ltd is the licence holder for BetFans, sitting on a VGCCC licence with ABN 63 688 055 898. Very little is known about the crew behind the company at this stage, no obvious ties to any existing operator on the ABR. The betfans.com.au domain is registered but currently returns a 404, so there’s not even a holding page to hint at what’s coming.

Betting Services Australia Pty Ltd

Betting Services Australia Pty Ltd is the NSW outfit that already runs MidasBet, PuntZone, PandaBet, DashBet, BetNow, BetNova and NinjaBet, all on Generation Web software. They’ve now loaded another fourteen brands onto the ACMA register: BetRaven, BeastBet, BetBull, BetCoin, BetStorm, FalconBet, FireBet, IceBet, MoonBet, RoyalBet, RushBet, SonicBet, SpicyBet and StrikeBet.

BetRaven is the closest to launch and the only one with anything to show, a placeholder “Coming Soon” page is live at betraven.com.au. If it follows the house template, expect a standard Generation Web book with a promo push at launch and not much staying power, the group’s existing apps don’t rate above 3.0 on iOS. The other thirteen are dead links for now and likely months away, if they ever launch at all. We’ve pulled together everything we know in our full BetRaven preview.

Business-Bet

Anthony Doughty is a well-known Victorian on-course bookie with more than 45 years in the Australian racing game. His record with regulators isn’t spotless though. In 2015, Racing Victoria hit him with a charge for accepting and not recording 3,374 bets worth over $900k between August 2012 and October 2014. He still runs the Anthony John Doughty phone wagering service, Business-Bet is his registered online brand through the VGCCC. The Business-Bet website is live now with a “Coming Soon” message, no launch date has been announced.

ClubBet

ClubBet opened its doors to Aussie punters on 1 July 2026, running on BetMakers software under a VGCCC registration and a Racing Victoria Club Bookmakers’ Licence. It’s a complete offering from day one: sports plus thoroughbred, harness and greyhound racing, with Same Race Multis, Best Tote and live streaming, and apps live on both iOS and Android. Nothing you haven’t seen from other BetMakers books though, and deposits are debit card only. Full breakdown in our ClubBet review.

Donnie Bet

DonnieBet launched in July 2026 on BetMakers tech. Check out our DonnieBet Australia review for the full scoop.

GemBet

GemBet has finally opened their doors to Aussie punters, going live on June 24 2026. The bookmaker runs on BetMakers tech, has apps live on both iOS and Android app stores, alongside a fully functional desktop website. It’s a pretty standard, but solid BetMakers book, you can read more on our GemBet review.

What’s Still Unknown About GemBet

Who’s actually behind GemBet is still a mystery. They’re registered under GEMBET PTY LTD, ABN 86 687 225 298, that’s about all we know.

Back in May 2026 we caught that the website gembet-au.com was active, but not accepting registrations. What’s even more interesting is that the gembet-au.com site was showing Let’s Bet (www.letsbet.net.au) branding and company information, which you can see in the screenshot below. Is there a connection between the brands? Was GemBet simply using Let’s Bet as a build template? As of now, we don’t know!

McBet

McBet is registered to the D McLauchlan & L McLauchlan Partnership, ABN 79 931 567 205, with a second business name FiestaBet Wagering sitting under the same ABN. FiestaBet is no longer operational, that one was a BetCloud white-label book before it closed shop. The D McLauchlan on the paperwork is almost certainly David McLauchlan, the same operator behind TempleBet, another BetCloud book. If the family pattern holds, expect McBet to land as yet another BetCloud build. The mcbet.com.au domain is registered but currently returns a 404, no launch date confirmed.

MGMBet

MGMBet stands for Member Get Member Bet, a referral-based concept, not a tie to the US/UK gambling giant BetMGM. Winners Bookmaking Pty Ltd confirmed this in a 2025 WIPO domain dispute (DAU2025-0033) where they successfully held onto mgmbet.com.au, arguing the name was their own idea and that they’d already received OLGR NSW approval to operate it. Fourth brand under the same NSW licence alongside 123bet, PuntSport, and BetPinnacle. Like the rest of the Winners Bookmaking stable, it’ll likely run on ApolloTech when it goes live. No launch date or website yet.

RiverBet

RiverBet just opened their doors to Aussie punters on June 11, 2026, operating under a VGCCC licence. No connection to the North American BetRivers brand, that’s owned by Rush Street Interactive (NYSE: RSI) and doesn’t operate in Australia.

Rooster Bet

Rooster Bet Pty Ltd is registered in Victoria (ABN 24 694 491 999) with a VGCCC licence, and roosterbet.com.au is live, though all you’ll find is a generic GoDaddy “Coming Soon” template. We wouldn’t tip this one as next through the door, a stock holding page doesn’t exactly scream launch-ready, but the licensing is clearly in place, so it’s worth keeping half an eye on.

VoltBet

VoltBet is registered to Gavin Mansour (ABN 68 158 841 244), one half of the G & T Mansour partnership behind ChromaBet, which has run on BetCloud software since October 2024 under a VGCCC licence. The same ABN mentioned above carries a second business name, BetStation, though only VoltBet has made it onto the ACMA register so far.

VoltBet has more boxes ticked than most bookies here: a VGCCC licence, ACMA registration, and a South Australian interstate betting approval granted back in September 2025. Even so, there’s no live site and no launch date, so it could be a fair way off yet. We’ve pulled together everything we know in our full VoltBet preview.

Winners

Winners is the main brand for Winners Bookmaking Pty Ltd, the NSW crew also behind BetPinnacle, MGMBet, and 123bet. Site is live but punters can’t get accounts yet. All their active brands run on ApolloTech, and the same platform is expected here. Word on the forums is there are more brands in the pipeline beyond what’s currently on the ACMA register.

ZingerBet

ZingerBet is the one unlicensed name on this page we’d happily put money on. It’s almost certainly a Zinger Bookmaking Pty Ltd brand, the ABR lists the company under ABN 86 680 307 439, the same outfit behind UpYaGo, Next2Go and PuntX. That’s Allan Hilzinger’s stable, a former ChaseBet GM who’s rolled out three books since May 2025, all on BetMakers software and all licensed through the Northern Territory.

If ZingerBet follows the family pattern, expect a tidy BetMakers book with well-liked iOS and Android apps, fair fixed prices and a decent welcome offer. For now there’s no ACMA listing, no licence and no live site, so nothing to sign up for yet. We’ve pulled together everything we know in our full ZingerBet preview.

Brands Not Currently on the ACMA Register

These brands have been floated as upcoming Australian launches but don’t appear anywhere on the ACMA register right now. No ACMA listing means no legal licence to take bets from Aussie punters. We’ll keep an eye on these and update the table if anything changes.

Keeping Up With New Bookmaker Launches

Some of these bookmakers will be open for business before you know it, others might never get there. We check the ACMA register regularly and update this page when something changes, whether that’s a new licence popping up, a site going live, or a brand quietly dropping off the radar. Bookmark this page if you’re keen to be first through the door on a new bookie or you can sign up to our email list below. If you’ve spotted something we’ve missed, get in touch.
