BOYLE Sports has launched Touch Bet across its Digital Racing Post Shops estate, adding a new touchscreen betting flow for horse racing customers. The rollout, announced 7th July, 2026, was developed with Spotlight Sports Group and is initially available on an exclusive basis to BOYLE Sports.
Touch Bet lets customers browse race meetings and build a racing bet on Digital Racing Post touchscreens in-shop. Once a bet is created, customers can either take it to the counter to place with staff or complete it in the BOYLE Sports app by scanning a QR code.
Philip Chubb, Retail Commercial Director at BOYLE Sports, said: “Touch Bet is a major step forward for our racing customers and marks a significant milestone in our retail offering. We know customers want more control, more convenience and a smoother experience when placing their bets. With Touch Bet, they can browse, build and place their racing bets in the way that suits them, whether that’s at the counter or through our app.
“We’re especially proud that this is an industry-exclusive launch for BOYLE Sports. It gives our shop customers first access to a new way of betting and shows our continued commitment to investing in better retail and digital experiences.”
Jon Sanders, Head of Retail Development at Spotlight Sports Group, added: “BOYLE Sports’ Touch Bet represents a true first in the retail environment, combining the quality betting experience honed by BOYLE Sports with the premium Racing Post content presented on the Digital Display Screens. BOYLE Sports are the ideal partner to work alongside in developing and launching the product.. By bringing the trusted expertise behind Racing Post onto the shop floor, we are giving customers a more intuitive and efficient way to build and place their bets. Retail remains a vital part of the betting experience, and we are proud to support BOYLE Sports as they continue to connect digital and in-shop betting.”
BOYLE Sports positioned the launch as part of a wider omnichannel strategy and pointed to a £100m investment in the UK market last year. The operator also referenced existing product work including Smart ACCA, described as a data-led accumulator tool across football and horse racing.
