### 2/5 — Money Transfer Issue

*2026-02-15, version 3.26.0*

The ACH option is not reliable forcing you to use options that cost $5 to transfer money

### 3/5 — Log in

*2024-04-04, version 3.7.1*

App will sign out and make you log in repeatedly when switching from screen to screen. It doesn’t seem to let you toggle back and forth.

### 2/5 — Watch your bets

*2023-05-06, version 3.0.5*

While the app is good. I’m finding the payouts are 50% of what I would get at the track. Whoever is running the app, appears to be keeping half of the winnings. For example today, I place a $2 WPS. The horse won with 8/1 odds. It paid out $18.60 / $7.00 / $4.60. Which come out to $30.20. Still a good win. But if the odds are 8/1, for a $2 bet, the winnings should have been double. I’ve gone to their support about this and they say they only pay a percentage of the winnings based on the pool. I’m sorry, but if the track posts the winnings, that’s the winnings not a percentage. This is the second year I’ve used the app. I don’t remember this happening last year. So I’ll be deleting the app now.

### 4/5 — Good

*2023-04-02, version 3.0.3*

Good

### 5/5 — David Easley

*2021-04-01, version 2.15.1*

Great App. Thanks

### 5/5 — Sports Betting

*2020-12-20, version 2.15.0*

When will you be adding full Sports Betting?

### 5/5 — Oaklawn Fan

*2020-10-10, version 2.13.0*

Oh how I miss going to the track.  At least I can find my favorite jockey or trainer at Keeneland on Oaklawn Anywhere and place a bet.   It is so easy to navigate.

### 5/5 — Cousin Billy

*2020-09-02, version 2.10.1*

Ok

### 5/5 — Great App!

*2020-06-30, version 2.9.1*

Oaklawn is a great place and their app is one of the best in the business. It works really well and I’ve never had any problems with it!

### 3/5 — Good data and stats

*2020-03-06, version 2.7.0*

I just downloaded it on my work phone for the weekend. 
I wish there were an Android app.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Impossible to Close Account

*2026-05-07, version 3.30.2*

Once this app is on your phone, it’s like herpes; impossible to get rid of. They make it impossible to delete a credit card. They make it impossible to submit a delete request. I love playing the ponies, but hate having a dishonest business experience that traps you.

### 1/5 — Pathetic

*2026-03-21, version 3.28.1*

This app is useless! You can stand in line to bet for 20 minutes or you can “try” and use this app but I’ll warn you you better deposit your entire paycheck because you only get ONE deposit that takes 3-5 days to clear then you can’t make any more deposits! If you come to hot springs I wouldn’t waste my time at Oaklawn. They aren’t even trying to be a premier racetrack

### 1/5 — Not user friendly

*2025-12-30, version 3.26.0*

It took my money fine, but trying to get it back is an ordeal!

### 1/5 — Too many issues

*2025-05-03, version 3.20.0*

Errors out when trying to login. Placed my bets for KY Derby they took my money the both web & app broke down before the race.

### 1/5 — Worst app

*2024-07-04, version 3.11.0*

Set up an account.  Can’t access it.  Try to reset password.  Never get a link.  Tried to set up account again, says to reset password.  Never get a link.  Worthless.

### 1/5 — Not dependable

*2023-02-20, version 2.23.8*

I had bets in for 6 and 7th races. It refunded my bets instead of paying them out. So, I lost money using app.

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2023-01-21, version 2.23.8*

A pain to register, impossible to add money, ruined the experience. Why make it so hard to enjoy the races?

### 1/5 — Odds

*2022-04-29, version 2.22.1*

The public cannot make a reasonable selection based on odds which change as the horses are entering the gate as well as while the race is run! Until you can receive the odds at the time of the wager as with other sports the public is getting screwed! When wagering was on track only this did not occur. The remote app works well for the track, not the patrons.

### 1/5 — I never win!

*2021-01-22, version 2.15.0*

I never win!

### 1/5 — Slow

*2020-02-20, version 2.6.3*

The app is bad slow an lags all the time.

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Great app but one flaw

*2025-07-06, version 3.21.0*

This is a great app but the one flaw is that if you change your bet type then it resets you bet amount to $1. So if you try to bet a $20 win on 6 but decide to change it to a show bet…then it will be a $1 show on 6. It forces you to review every bet which is a pain.

### 5/5 — Love this

*2024-04-14, version 3.7.1*

When I hit a big race last week, I called them to request my money.  The next day it was in my bank account.  Wonderful customer service!

### 5/5 — Easiest Way to Bet at Oaklawn

*2024-03-29, version 3.7.1*

Convenient and fast way to make bets. The interface for s simple to understand with just enough information for handicapping.

### 5/5 — Money

*2024-03-17, version 3.6.0*

Works great and you can access your winnings whenever the track side is open. Don’t have to wait 7-10 business days like other apps

### 5/5 — These folks make betting horse’s classy!

*2023-01-03, version 2.23.8*

Thanks Mr C!

### 5/5 — Need To be able to purchase daily racing form through this app

*2022-11-20, version 2.23.6*

The betting part of the app works great, but I need to be able to buy my daily racing form through this app. I love that I can beat the greyhounds this app

### 5/5 — The Best!

*2022-05-07, version 2.22.1*

Again The Best!

### 5/5 — Lucky Dog

*2021-12-06, version 2.21.0*

I have been to Oaklawn since I was a young man listened to the King of Oaklawn , Terry Wallace call his first and by pure luck his last race he was a very gracious man and I appreciate he gave this race patron a few minutes of his time. RIP Mr .Wallace. I am disabled now with limited mobility so I am very glad for this app.👍😎✌️

### 5/5 — Most fun ever from an easy chair

*2021-11-05, version 2.20.0*

The only thing better is being there and it is hard to travel to Del Mar or Saratoga from Rogers, AR!

### 5/5 — Sweet

*2021-07-28, version 2.17.1*

Addictive in all the right wrong ways
