NextBet Review

NextBet is one of Australia's newest bookmakers, and the rebranded name for the old brand PlayUp.

All PlayUp and CrossBet customers will automatically be moved to NextBet, where they can enjoy all of the perks that come with the merger of two top brands.

New customers can join using our exclusive NextBet referral code BETS. No welcome offers are available, due to government legislation in Australia.

NextBet Website & Login

NextBet’s sportsbook builds on the former PlayUp platform, originally developed from the merger of ClassicBet, TopBetta and Mad Bookie, and is tailored specifically for Australian punters. 

It offers a wide range of markets across AFL, NRL, soccer, basketball, cricket, rugby union and league, tennis, golf, gridiron, ice hockey, MMA, motor racing, baseball, netball, darts, snooker, cycling, table tennis, volleyball, badminton and esports. Competitive pricing is a key feature, with margins as low as 103% available on selected sports, helping to deliver strong value across major competitions.

Racing remains central to the offering, with comprehensive coverage of Australian thoroughbred, harness and greyhound events, alongside competitive tote pricing and useful tools such as form guides, statistics and betting calculators. Punters can place pre-match bets across thousands of markets, with live betting also supported via telephone on selected events. The interface is straightforward to use, allowing players to add selections to their bet slip quickly, activate any available free bets and confirm wagers with ease.

Promotions


The healthy range of ongoing promotions offered by PlayUp will be available to NextBet users too. Here's what customers can enjoy...

  • Massive racing section filled with local and international meetings
