Responsible Gambling

Effective Date: 3 August 2026

Our Commitment

Punt Hub believes that betting should be an enjoyable form of entertainment, not a way to make money or solve financial problems.

While Punt Hub provides racing information, odds comparison tools, editorial content and free games, we do not accept bets or operate a wagering service.

We encourage all users to gamble responsibly and only within their financial means.


Punt Hub's Role

Punt Hub provides:

  • Racing news and editorial content

  • Odds comparison tools

  • Bookmaker comparisons

  • Free games and competitions

  • Community discussion

  • Links to licensed wagering operators

Any wagers placed are between you and the licensed wagering operator you choose.

Punt Hub is not involved in accepting, managing or settling bets.


Know the Risks

Gambling involves risk.

Before placing a bet, consider whether you:

  • Can afford to lose the money you are staking.

  • Are gambling for entertainment rather than to make money.

  • Are betting with money you can comfortably afford to lose.

  • Are in control of your gambling behaviour.

No betting strategy, tip or prediction can guarantee success.

Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results.


Tips for Gambling Responsibly

We encourage users to:

  • Set a betting budget before you start.

  • Stick to that budget.

  • Decide in advance how much time you will spend gambling.

  • Avoid chasing losses.

  • Avoid gambling while under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

  • Take regular breaks.

  • Balance gambling with other hobbies and activities.

  • Remember that winning is never guaranteed.


Warning Signs

Your gambling may be becoming a problem if you:

  • Gamble with money needed for essential expenses.

  • Chase losses by increasing your bets.

  • Hide your gambling from family or friends.

  • Borrow money to gamble.

  • Gamble to escape stress or emotional difficulties.

  • Feel unable to stop or reduce your gambling.

If any of these sound familiar, support is available.
