Frequently asked questions

What is a free bet and how does it work?

A free bet is a promotional stake credited to your account by a UK-licensed bookmaker, usually after you place a qualifying real-money bet at minimum odds (commonly 1.50 or higher). When you use a free bet, you receive any winnings minus the original stake — bookmakers call this 'stake not returned' (SNR). A £10 free bet at odds of 3.00 therefore pays £20 in winnings, not £30.

How do I claim a free bet offer?

Six steps: (1) confirm you're eligible — resident in a country the offer covers (most are UK only), 18+, never previously held an account with the operator; (2) register and complete identity verification; (3) deposit using a debit card or bank transfer (Skrill, Neteller and PayPal are routinely excluded); (4) place a qualifying bet at the stated minimum odds and stake; (5) wait for the free bet to credit — anywhere from a few minutes to 48 hours after the qualifying bet settles (some offers pay out in instalments over several days), not when it's placed; (6) use the free bet within its expiry window, typically 7 days.

Are these offers only for new customers?

Yes. Every welcome offer on this page is restricted to new 18+ customers in the countries shown on each offer (most are UK only; a few also accept Republic of Ireland customers) who have not previously registered with the bookmaker or any sister brand under the same parent company. Operators cross-reference name, address and payment method, so attempting to register a second account will result in account closure and forfeited funds.

How long do free bets last before they expire?

Most UK welcome free bets expire 7 days from the moment they're credited to your account — not from when you registered. Some offers on this page are shorter or longer, from 24 hours up to 28 days, so check each offer's terms. Calendar the deadline as soon as the free bet hits your account, because bookmakers don't send reminders and unused free bets void without notice.

What does 'minimum odds' or '1/2 (1.50)' actually mean?

It's the lowest decimal price your qualifying bet can be at for the offer to trigger. 1/2 in fractional is 1.50 decimal — so backing a 1.40 short-priced favourite means the free bet won't credit, and the bookmaker will not refund you on goodwill. Always check the qualifying odds before placing the bet, not after.

Why is my free bet stake not returned when I win?

Almost every UK free bet is 'stake not returned' (SNR), meaning the free bet itself is treated as the stake — when the bet wins, you get winnings only. This makes free bets more valuable on higher-odds selections (where the lost stake is a smaller fraction of total potential payout) than on short-priced favourites.

Are the free bet offers on this page genuinely the best in the UK?

We only list offers from UK Gambling Commission licensed operators, with terms as the bookmaker publishes them. Offers are listed in an order we choose. We may earn commission when you sign up through our links.

Do you receive commission from these bookmakers?
