BetOnline Racebook Features
When we’re checking out the features of the racebooks we recommend, we look at them the same way any horseplayer would, looking for bonuses and promotions that increase payouts beyond the odds, convenience of betting and track options, and what extra features the book provides that help racing fans handicap the big races.

Bonus Cash
While many racebooks offer different amounts of cash back bonuses depending on the type of wager, the BetOnline rebate program straightforward. Place any type of bet online through the race book – straight wagers such as Win, Place or Show, or exotics like Exactas, Trifectas, Pick 3s and 4s and Daily Doubles, and BetOnline will return 7% of your wager volume, paid out daily – win or lose. The only exceptions to this is on bets placed at New York Racing Association tracks, where the cash back rebate is 4%, and on D and E-level tracks, where there is no rebate.
