Although the origins of the betting agency stretch back to 1925, it wasn't until 1946 that Betvictor senior founded the company as we know it today. As soon as betting and gaming shops were made legal in 1963, the bookmaker began establishing betting points across the south-east of England.
In 1975, the business was taken over by the current Victor Chandler. Betvictor recognized the huge potential in foreign markets as he accepted bets on soccer from far-eastern players, and as he opened an office in Antigua which made it possible for foreigners to bet without the need to pay the UK tax. In 1999, the entire boomaking business of Victor Chandler was relocated to Gibraltar, as three years earlier the company had received the Gibraltarian license. The move allowed all VictorChandler's players to avoid paying 9 % betting tax, which was the first operation of that kind. VictorChandler initiated its online service in 1999.
