What is a Punters Club?

Punters Clubs are a great way to get friends and social groups together to have fun and raise funds for a group goal or cause. The Club Manager starts the Punters Club, sets the rules and invites friends to join. Club members contribute a set amount of money according to the Punters Club rules and take turns to bet. All club winnings are distributed into each member's personal HOT Bet account at the conclusion of each round, which can either be withdrawn or pooled together with Club members to work towards a common goal.
