New gambling related offer for newsagents

Several newsagents have commenced a trial this week selling Sports Acumen betting account recharge. Sports Acumen is an ACT licenced betting agency offering Fixed Odds and Spread Betting markets for Aussie Rules, Rugby Union, Premier League Soccer, Horse Racing, American Football, Baseball, Basketball, Boxing, Cricket and more. Newsagents facilitate account top up. They are not actually involved in providing betting services. They are a natural retail partner for Sports Acumen because of their traffic and well established lottery connection. Newsagents attempted to get involved in this space in 2004 with Betcard and have been looking for a new partner ever since that fell apart. With Australia Post involved with the soon to launch Betfair, newsagents are expected to embrace Sports Acumen once the trial is over.
