Dedicated apps available on iOS (App Store) and Android.

The app performed well during our testing, with fast load times and a clean interface. Navigation between racing and sports sections was straightforward.

The minimum deposit is $10 and the minimum bet is $0.20. These are in line with industry standards for Australian bookmakers.

Customer Support

Live chat, email ([email protected]). No phone.

Support hours are adequate for most users, though we would prefer to see 24/7 availability given the nature of live betting and racing schedules.

Responsible Gambling Tools

Deposit limits, self-exclusion (3 months to permanent via form), cooling off/time-out, account suspension, marketing opt-out. Complies with NT Code of Practice. BetStop national register support.

All Australian-licensed operators are required to provide deposit limits, self-exclusion options, and integration with the BetStop National Self-Exclusion Register. Picklebet meets these requirements.

Pros & Cons

Verdict

Picklebet scores 4.3/5.0 in our testing. Mixed: Praised for esports, app, features by some reviewers. Poor Trustpilot rating (2.1/5) with complaints on withdrawals/KYC, bonus terms, support.

Picklebet is a serviceable option for Australian punters, though there are stronger alternatives in our rankings. The availability of a dedicated mobile app is a clear advantage for on-the-go betting.

We noted the following concerns during testing: 2026 ACMA investigation for BetStop self-exclusion breach (enforcement pending); user complaints on strict payout verification, slow withdrawals, promo disputes; some account closures..
