Betr: Punters slam News Corp-backed sports betting app for deactivated accounts

Betr deactivated accounts of some users to prevent them claiming Melbourne Cup winnings. The group congratulated punters who backed Gold Trip to Melbourne Cups victory on Tuesday. Betr wrote to suspended users on Wednesday to verify the card details of their account or face permanent suspension. BetR prevents betters holding multiple accounts with a bookkeeper. It will pay 10,000 people who back Gold Tops over $1000 each. They were offered a last-minute offer to take up an $150 betting voucher in exchange for their Deauville Legend bets.

Betr boss Matt Tripp: The bookie who dodged $50m Melbourne Cup loss

About a week out from the race, it was becoming clear in the Melbourne offices of Betr that the marketing stunt was getting away from them.
