Traditional tote system
In classic sports betting bookmakers rely on their expert knowledge to determine the chances of winning, using odds to express probabilities. Horse racing however traditionally uses the tote system. For each race, the customers' stakes are pooled and the odds are then determined for this pool. Once the race has finished, the pool is shared among the winners. Part of the revenue is invested back into promoting sports and horse breeding.

Strong partners
bwin focuses on strong partners among the horse racing organisers and works directly with the racing clubs. "Our partners guarantee an attractive line-up with up to 300 races a day, including live video broadcasts.
