Track betting licences

A track betting licence allows betting facilities to be provided at a track or sporting venue. Before a person or organisation can offer betting facilities on a sporting event, they must hold the appropriate licence.

A track betting licence allows premises to be used for betting activities. Separate licences are required for other gambling activities such as bingo or casino gaming.
