Tabcorp created Luxbet in 2008 and has its headquarters in Darwin. The online casino business has also provided casino players to also wager on non-sport and racing competitions like elections and other entertainment activities.

Not so long ago, Attenborough hinted that some Aussie casino brands would be saying goodbye as a result of their pending merger with Tatts Group. Apart from Luxbet, Attenborough also announced the possible shutdown of one of Tatts’ brands, UBET.

If the merger of the two online casino gambling operators becomes a success, Tabcorp will have some of its casino brands operating in Tatts markets like South Australia and Queensland.  However, in these states, trouble might follow Tabcorp because, in these areas, their advertising restrictions will be widened.
