Who we are
PunterIreland helps Irish adults compare betting sites and online casinos and find clear, honest guides to the sports they follow, from football and racing to GAA, golf and rugby. We explain how things work, including margins, wagering terms and settlement rules, in plain English.
What we do
- Compare operators. Our betting sites page ranks the bookmakers we have reviewed and explains why.
- Explain betting. Our guides cover odds, bet types, offers and each major sport, with worked examples in euro.
- Provide tools. Our free betting calculators show what a bet returns before you place it.
- Preview matches. We publish match previews and reports, and log every prediction, win or lose, on our predictions track record.
How we choose operators
We list only operators that hold a licence to serve Irish customers, and we say which licence applies and when we last checked it. Irish remote betting licences are issued by the Gambling Regulatory Authority of Ireland (GRAI), which began issuing them on 1 July 2026, and some operators still hold Revenue licences during the changeover. For casino, Irish licences are not yet available, so we use brands licensed by a recognised regulator that accept Irish players, and we will add Irish-licensed brands as they appear. See how to check a bookmaker is licensed for how to verify any operator yourself.
How we make money
PunterIreland is free to use. When you click a link to an operator and sign up, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. This never changes how we rate an operator. See our affiliate disclosure for details, and our editorial standards for how we keep reviews independent.
Our commitment to responsible gambling
Betting should be entertainment, never a way to make money, and it is for adults aged 18 and over. Every page carries an 18+ notice and a link to free support. Read our responsible gambling page for tools and services in Ireland.
