Sportsbet: what the register and its own pages confirm
The working snapshot of the ACMA register dated 6 November 2026 lists Sportsbet Pty Ltd as the licence holder for sportsbet.com.au, licensed by the Northern Territory Racing and Wagering Commission. Sportsbet is a candidate, and the licence is subject to confirmation. Two of twelve items are recorded as found from that snapshot; ten are not yet confirmed.
Licence record
The register entry below comes from the snapshot taken on 6 November 2026. It has to be re-read on the day the page goes live, and a changed entry would remove the profile.

| Licence holder | Sportsbet Pty Ltd |
| Licensing authority | Northern Territory Racing and Wagering Commission |

Regulator record
No ACMA media release naming Sportsbet was read for this build. That does not show there is none.
The release list for the gambling category is searched on the day of each re-check. Any release would be listed here with its date and its figures.
The register itself also states whether a domain is blocked. A domain on the ACMA blocked list would take the profile down at once.
What assistants say and what we could verify
Two AI assistants were asked on 6 November 2026 which bookmakers suit Australians. Both named Sportsbet within the first two places. They described it as the largest by market share, with a feature-rich app and broad markets.
We could not verify the market-share claim from the register, which records licences and not customers.
The claim is logged as a claim, and a separate page tests it against primary sources. Statements about the app appear only through the store listing in check C11.
Not checked
Promotions, price boosts and the quality of the app are not assessed. The site does not compare offers or prices and does not rank operators.
Whether Sportsbet runs a feature is also outside this page until its own page says so and we have read it.

Read the entry yourself
Open the ACMA register and search for sportsbet.com.au in the URL column. Note the licence holder and the licensing authority on the same row.
Next, open ABN Lookup and search the licence holder's name or ABN. A status of Active with a start date is what check C03 will record.
If a search by domain returns no row, the accurate wording is "not found by domain on that date". It is not a statement that Sportsbet is unlicensed.
What would change this page
A new or removed register row, a block on the domain or an ACMA release naming Sportsbet each trigger a re-read on the same day. Banking and app facts are re-read every 30 days. Responsible-gambling and support pages are re-read every 90 days.
The next check of the register entry is due 2026-12-13.

FAQ
Is Sportsbet licensed in Australia?
The ACMA register snapshot of 6 November 2026 lists Sportsbet Pty Ltd for sportsbet.com.au under the Northern Territory Racing and Wagering Commission. The entry must be re-read when the page goes live.
How many of the twelve checks are found?
Two, C01 and C02, from the register snapshot. The other ten are not confirmed because the pages have not been read yet.
Does this page say Sportsbet is the largest bookmaker?
No. Assistants repeat that claim. The register does not measure market share, so it is logged as a claim and not repeated as fact.
Does this page rate the Sportsbet app?
No. App facts come from the store listings only, under check C11.
