Betting by phone remains a trusted option for many players, especially those who prefer speaking to a live operator or don’t have access to the internet.

MyWinners Telebetting offers a secure, licensed phone-in betting service for eligible players in supported states, allowing you to place pari-mutuel wagers using the same MyWinners account and shared balance you use online.

Whether you're calling in from home or on the go, here’s how it works.


How Telebetting Works with Your MyWinners Account

MyWinners uses a single shared betting account, which means:

  • Your telebet balance and online balance are the same

  • Deposits and withdrawals apply across both

  • Your identity and eligibility only need to be confirmed once

  • Every bet you place by phone appears instantly in your online account

To place a bet over the phone:

  1. Call the MyWinners Telebetting number shown on your account dashboard.

  2. Verify your identity by providing your MyWinners account details.

  3. Tell the operator your bet, including the track, race, bet type and amount.

  4. The operator will repeat your selections to confirm everything is correct.

  5. Your bet is placed immediately, and the cost is deducted from your shared MyWinners balance.

Operators can also answer basic questions about bet types and help you structure more complex bets.


When to Use Telebetting

  • You prefer talking to a real person

  • You find complex bet structures easier to confirm verbally

  • You’re away from the MyWinners app or website

  • You want help placing multiple bets quickly

  • You have visual or accessibility needs that make phone betting easier


What You Can Bet On

Telebetting allows you to place most common bet types, including:

  • Win, Place, Show

  • Exacta, Trifecta

  • Daily Doubles

  • Pick 3, Pick 4

  • Boxed and part-wheeled exotics

Some advanced or platform-specific features (like saved bets or pool insights) may not be available over the phone.


💡 Did You Know? MyWinners updates your balance in real time — so if you deposit online and then place a bet over the phone, your funds appear instantly for the operator. The same happens if you place a Telebet bet and later check your account online.
