William Hill, the UK’s largest and most prolific sportsbook, entered the Australian sports betting industry in early 2015, purchasing three of the largest online sports bookmakers Down Under (Sportingbet, Tom Waterhouse and Centrebet), and rebranding/unifying them all under the one brand name – William Hill.

But the foray in to Australia was brief, selling out to CrownBet in 2018, who themselves subsequently rebranded to BetEasy.

William Hill remain a strong global brand in the online bookmaking business outside Australia, with a presence in the United Kingdom, Ireland, Canada and Nevada, United States.
