About WinnersBet
WinnersBet is the trading name associated with well-known Melbourne on-course bookmaker Da He, who has been visible on major platforms in the past.
WinnersBet uses the GenerationWeb 132 platform (the same technology family used by other Australian wagering brands). The site uses a purple and gold theme and the layout is simple and compact.
Sponsorship and Branding
At the time of writing, WinnersBet does not appear to have major sponsorships. It looks like a smaller, boutique operator.
Company Website Overview
The site is easy to navigate and feels lightweight. That said, some key info is not obvious before login, which makes it harder to compare with other bookmakers.
Examples of info that may be hard to find without digging:
- No dedicated FAQ page (a Rules page exists, but it’s not the same thing).
- Deposit and withdrawal details aren’t clearly explained up front.
- Promotions information may require login to view.
Main/Home Page
Navigation is compact, so it’s quick to move between sections. On mobile, the bottom bar shows four main items: Racing, Sports, Login, and Betslip.
The left “hamburger” menu looks organised, but it appears to be missing an obvious FAQ link. A Live Chat link is shown, but it may only work for signed-in members.
Racing Page
The Racing section is simple and familiar. The default view is Next to Gallop, which lists races coming up soon.
You can filter to thoroughbreds, harness, and greyhounds. Meetings and races are shown in time order.
Other quick buttons include:
- Today’s Racing
- Tomorrow’s Racing
- Racing in two days
- Racing Results (pick a date)
Sports Page
The Sports section shows Upcoming Matches plus an All Sports list. Tap a sport to view fixtures and available markets.
Promotions Page
Promotions appear to be viewable after login via the main menu.
Mobile App
At the time of writing, WinnersBet does not appear to offer a standalone iOS or Android app. The service is accessed via the website.
Sign Up Process
If you choose to create an account, the steps generally look like this:
Step 1
- Enter personal details (name, DOB, address, email, phone).
Step 2
- Set username and password, then complete any optional fields (such as “Heard about?”, promo code, pre-commitment, mailing list checkbox).
Step 3
- Confirm you are 18+ and agree to the Terms & Conditions and Privacy Policy.

The Race Results view is clean and easy if you’re checking yesterday’s results.
Sports
Most major sports are included. However, in-play market depth looks limited on many events, often showing only a small set of markets (like head-to-head/moneyline and a couple of alternates).
Betting Types/Features/Odds (Racing)
On race cards you’ll see common options like Win, Place, and exotics (Quinella, Exacta, Trifecta, First Four). Some meetings also display a Quaddie option when available.
- Win bets may offer Fixed and a “best of three TAB” style option (often labelled BT).
- Place bets may offer Fixed and a “middle dividend” style option (often labelled MID).
- Exotics may be priced through SuperTAB (STAB).
Other Betting Features (Racing)
What’s Available
- Form Guide – open a runner on a race card to view basic form. Some international cards may not show full details.

In Summary
Highlights
- Easy to navigate.
- Clean, compact layout.
- Australian based.
Work In Progress
- More in-play sports markets would improve the sports product.
- More racing tools would help (where competitors offer deeper data).
- More withdrawal options would be a plus.
- More pre-login info would help comparisons (FAQ, banking details, promos info).
WinnersBet has been around since 2020 and still feels like a smaller operator. If they add depth to markets and improve the info available before login, it could become easier to compare against larger bookmakers.
