PointsBet Racebook App Review and Bonus Code

PointsBet USA, a subsidiary of Australian-based PointsBet Sportsbook, is currently available in over a dozen US states. The company acquired a top pari-mutuel advance deposit wagering (ADW) provider, Premier Turf Club LLC, for $2.9 million in 2021.

Currently, PointsBet is still working on the rebranding of Premier Turf’s BetPTC.com website, nicknamed “Racing’s Best Kept Secret.” The operator had an established presence in 18 states and a license from the Oregon Racing Commission. 

Once the brand redesign is complete, we can expect a new PointsBet horse racing app to come out of the woodwork under the name of PointsBet Racebook.

In our speculative review, we’re going to cover all the details we have so far about the PointsBet Racebook app, including its potential betting offer, promotions, and more. 

PointsBet Racebook Promo Code

There’s currently no definitive information about the PointsBet Racebook bonus deal. Still, we can draw some parallels between BetPTC.com promotions and those likely to appear once horse racing on PointsBet goes live. 

As a new customer, you’ll probably be eligible for up to $200 in bonus funds which you can use on all daily races. To receive the bonus cash, you must wager a total of $750 within the first 45 days on the app. 

To withdraw the bonus, you’ll need to wager it once, which shouldn’t be too much of a problem. Moreover, you won’t require a PointsBet promo code to activate the bonus. 

Quality of the PointsBet Racebook App

PointsBet horse betting app will come by way of Premier Turf’s white-label advance deposit wagering (ADW) horse racing betting service. It was developed in partnership with 1/ST TECHNOLOGY, which will be in charge of the entire product, tote, and content management. 

1/ST TECHNOLOGY’s betting app 1/ST BET is a revolutionary multi-feature app with a proprietary algorithm-based handicapping tool and configurable UI/UX, making it one of the best horse racing apps out there. 

In addition to the educational side of the PointsBet mobile app, we can expect to see a simple and intuitive interface in conjunction with existing services. Instead of a glitzy design, the app will give way to functionality, such as access to the bet slip within seconds and sorting options (separate races by prize money, starting time, race type, etc.). 

The bet card is easy to read, and the entire betting process is streamlined to facilitate a top-quality PointsBet mobile betting experience for both novice and experienced bettors.

PointsBet Horse Betting Options

PointsBet wouldn’t have been recognized as one of the best sports betting apps if it weren’t for its diverse choice of betting options, beginning with Points Betting, a unique way of wagering on sports. The same diversity is bound to come to PointsBet Racebook, and typical bets you’ll come across on the PointsBet mobile site are: 

  • Win: Betting on the horse to win the race. 
  • Place: You can bet on the horse you think will finish first or second. In both instances, your bet is a winner. 
  • Show: Your bet is a winner if your horse finishes first, second, or third. 
  • Exacta: The exacta bet is a bit more complicated since it requires selecting the horses you think will finish first and second in the correct order. 
  • Trifecta: With trifecta, you select the horses to finish first, second, and third. They must complete the race in the exact order for the bet to stand. 
  • Quinella: You bet on the horses to finish first and second, irrespective of the order. 
  • Superfecta: Superfecta warrants you to choose the horses to finish in the top four spots in the exact order. 

PointsBet horse racing app will also allow bettors to protect and group their bets, using key, box, or wheel bets that come with an extra cost but could boost your chances of winning. For example, if the trifecta seems too much of a challenge, you can use the box bet to cover all options among the three selected horses. 

Detailed guides on how to bet on horses will be available within the app and on the mobile site for all future use. 

PointsBet Racebook Live Racing and Betting

PointsBet Sportsbook is famous for its good-quality live streaming option available to users with at least $10 in their active accounts. BetPTC also features video streaming on its old platform that allows all active users to watch the races free of charge. 

Therefore, once the new PointsBet racing app kicks off, it’s safe to assume it’ll host live streaming of top races. You’ll enjoy watching and betting on the Kentucky Derby on PointsBet in HD quality and with numerous in-running wagering options.

Availability of the PointsBet Horse Betting App in California

PointsBet’s subsidiary Premier Turf Club and their BetPTC.com website are accessible in 18 states that allow advance deposit wagering. The horse racing industry generates over $12 billion in handle and half of it comes from ADW, which is legally available in 38 states. 

We’ll likely see PointsBet Racebook in all the states BetPTC.com currently services. It’s not clear whether existing account holders of PointsBet will have to set up new ones to access the racebook.

Summary of PointsBet Horse Betting App

PointsBet Racebook is poised to become one of the leading horse race betting apps in the country, relying heavily on a sizable assortment of bets, competitive odds, and live streaming of the most popular races. 

PointsBet supports all sorts of payment methods, including e-wallets, debit/credit cards, wire transfers, and others. However, the absence of PayPal may be a turnoff for some bettors who prefer to use this e-wallet. 

Ultimately, knowing the reputation of PointsBet and its partners on the project, we’ll likely get a full-fledged horse race betting app with scores of functionalities and features worthy of the developer’s reputation.
