Responsible Wagering Australia (RWA) today congratulated Crown Resorts and Betfair Australia on the launch of CrownBet and is pleased to welcome the brand into the RWA membership when it launches in early 2026.  

CrownBet is a new fixed odds wagering product that will sit alongside Betfair’s market leading exchange model, providing greater choice for customers and expanding Betfair’s presence in the regulated Australian wagering market.  

Fixed odds wagering enables customers to lock in a price on a selection, while the exchange allows punters to bet directly against each other, together creating a more diverse and competitive market. 

RWA CEO Kai Cantwell said we’re delighted to welcome CrownBet to the membership and the launch marks an important step in the evolution of the Australian wagering market. 

“Having CrownBet join our membership strengthens our collective capacity to advocate for a well regulated, responsible and sustainable industry,” Mr Cantwell said. 

“By working together, we can better promote safer gambling initiatives and uphold industry leading standards of integrity and transparency.” 

Betfair CEO Amy Zavros said the industry is evolving quickly, and it’s important we have a seat at the table to help guide where it goes next.” 

“Betfair has long valued the role RWA plays in developing industry standards and policy, and with CrownBet joining the membership we look forward to contributing to the future direction of the industry.” 

With the inclusion of CrownBet, RWA’s membership continues to grow, reinforcing its position as the collective representative body for licensed online wagering providers in Australia.
