NSW Betting Tips Service Laws?

[Panda95]

Is an individual in Australia able to sell a subscription newsletter providing sports bet tips? For example, a weekly newsletter with the ‘best bet of the week’.

There would be no actual way to make the bets via the newsletter, and no affiliation with any book maker. Only generic picks of sporting events that the writer believe are good bets.

I often see social media users sharing their best sports tips, which seemingly is ok. But when receiving money for the same thing, does it require a license?

Even if you’re just sharing your opinions and not actually placing bets, it might still touch gambling advice rules, so some people get a license to be safe. I once followed a weekly tip newsletter, and they always recommended checking a trusted casino for placing bets responsibly.
