Betfair history. In January 2009 Betfair acquired TVG. TVG is one of the largest legal online wagering businesses in the US and owns the TVG racing channel which is shown in approximately 35 million US homes. TVG customers can bet through an interactive horseracing network that combines live televised coverage from over 100 of America's premier tracks with the convenience of wagering (for certain US residents only) from home online, by phone, with a web-enabled mobile phone and, where available, set-top remote control.

Premium Charge. In September 2008, betfair introduced a "Premium Charge" for bettors whose winnings were deemed to be disproportionately high when compared to the amount of commission they pay. Specifically, members whose commission charges amount to less than 20% of their gross profits (across at least 250 markets) are required to pay the additional charge to make up the difference. This charge would affect a very small portion of its members (less than 0.5%).
