What use is Betfair Points to the average or low stakes punter?
Instead of lowering commission why not give free bets or goodies for points generated? |

They could also send the plastic card by post,and the owner would be advertising Betfair with his plastic card when he is in the pub.

The points we get could be used for going on real holidays,as the travel agent would love more business and would get loads of adverting ,and we could accumulate the points on the card.
And the travel agents could pay the discount on the holidays. the wives would be happy also. the more bets you do the more points you get on your card. And the wives would be saying"get on betfair and do loads of bets I want to go to florida in the summer. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Lets say if I guy does 100 grand in bets on betfair throughout the year he gets a free 2000 grand holiday ,now imagine if you had a few hundred ordinary punter trying to get their free holiday. there would be a lot of bets flying about even if there where only Scottish second division games on.

Is it not more sensible just to pay the 2k for the holiday and keep the other 98k

but with all the sharp minds they would be trying to get holiday expences,and at the end of the day even the guy that loses his cobblers would be able to take his chick to London for a week end at betfairs expence.
Of course betfair would get their millions on turnover,the travel agents get more business and Joe the punter gets rewarded for his betfair gambling with a cheque in his front door that can only be used for a holiday. ![]() |

Charging for a video service that isn't fit for purpose was a great business idea..

Ovalman. What use is Betfair Points to the average or low stakes punter? Instead of lowering commission why not give free bets or goodies for points generated? That's what baldy does. Far better system. |

By:
yes,the low stakes punter needs some incentive ,
betfair need to tap into the regular small punter and give them something to make them walk past the high street bookie shop and come home and put their 20 quid on this site. Everyone loves to get something for free.(even if they pay for it in a round about way) Think of all the big supermarkets ,women go mad spending in them all year long to accumulate points to get free vouchures to spend in the same supermarket. |
