The UK Betting Levy Act 1961 was, as far as the betting industry was concerned a major piece of legislation. It forced significant changes on the racing and bookmaking industries. A horserace betting levy on bookmakers meant that the tote was no longer the only source of betting revenue for racing.
At the time it was felt that this would be the beginning of the end for the tote however has history has proven a good idea won't lie down and the tote goes from strength to strength.
Tote Direct was set up in 1992 to channel tote bets from high street betting shops into tote pools. Now tote betting terminals are in more than 4500 shops across the UK, including all totesport, Ladbrokes and Coral shops. The tote internet betting operation, totebetXpress, was launched in 2002
