Dabble launched in 2020 as a bookmaking app with a difference. In addition to offering a full bookmaking service, Dabble operates as a social networking site, enabling punters to chat and offer advice to each other. There is no desktop site for Dabble; all of the bets must be placed via the mobile app.

It’s possible to bet on racing, sports, and esports via the Dabble app, although there aren’t as many sports as you’ll find elsewhere. The reason for Dabble’s popularity is the range of innovative features it offers. This includes being able to copy the bets of other users, as well as being able to add explanatory notes and tips to your own bets for others to see.

A messaging facility is included in the Dabble app, connecting users and promoting “banter”. Sky Racing has also partnered with Dabble, so live streaming is possible 24/7 via the mobile app.

To place a bet at Dabble you’ll need to download one of the mobile apps, as they don’t have a desktop site available. Its apps have all of the functionality you would normally associate with a traditional betting site, plus some extra add-ons.

If you know what bet you want to place, then open up the app, select the market, and you’ll be able to view the available bets. Touch the bet you want and add the stake to your betting slip. Once you confirm the selection, your bet will be placed.

On Dabble, your bets will be shared with other users unless you indicate otherwise. This is part of its community betting vision. When you place a bet, you can also opt to add notes to explain why you’ve chosen your selection. This could help other punters when they’re trying to decide what bet to take.

However, there is the option to keep your bets private if you would prefer not to share your selection – or thoughts! – with others.

In addition to sharing your bet, you also have the option to see how others have been betting. Copy bets from the Dabble team of tipsters or from other punters, or just take a look at the general sentiment.

All of these features are built into the app so you can maximise your betting potential.

Mobile devices are the only way to access Dabble, as there’s no website that allows users to place a bet. A website does exist for Dabble, but only for the purposes of providing additional content and signposting users to the app.

The good news is that whether you’re an Android or iOS user, you’ll find the app easy to download and open. No need to hunt around to find the download link as the apps are available on the Play Store and the App Store, respectively.

It can take a little while to get used to navigating around the app, especially as there are so many functions. But everything you need is included, and once you’ve familiarised yourself with the interface, the apps are easy to use.

The only thing to be mindful of is the apps lagging during peak periods. If you’re betting on a big event, give yourself a little extra time to place the bet and don’t leave it to the very last minute. This is because sometimes the app can lag slightly when it’s overloaded, although there doesn’t seem to be any incidences of it crashing completely.

It’s a minor grumble in what is otherwise an excellent bookmaking app that puts betting at your fingertips.

Is Dabble a bookmaker or a social networking site?

Dabble is a bit of both! Dabble is, first and foremost, a licensed bookmaker that is regulated in the same way as all other Australian bookmakers. However, its vision was to create a community where punters could chat and share information. That’s why Dabble is full of extra features, such as messaging and the ability to copy top bets.
