Frequently Asked Questions

What is a bookmaker welcome offer?

A bookmaker welcome offer is a promotion available to new customers when they sign up to a sportsbook. Most UK bookmakers offer free bets after you deposit money and place a qualifying bet. Common formats include Bet £5 Get £30 or Bet £10 Get £40 in free bets.

What does "Bet £10 Get £30 in Free Bets" mean?

This type of promotion requires you to place a £10 qualifying bet with real money. After the bet settles, the bookmaker credits your account with £30 in free bet tokens which can be used on future bets.

What is a qualifying bet?

A qualifying bet is the first real-money bet required to unlock a welcome promotion. Most bookmakers require the bet to meet certain conditions, such as a minimum stake and minimum odds.

Are bookmaker welcome offers only for new customers?

Yes. Almost all sportsbook welcome offers are only available to new customers who have not previously registered with the bookmaker.

How long do free bets last?

Free bets usually expire if they are not used within a set period. Most bookmakers require free bets to be used within 7 to 30 days after they are credited to your account.

Can free bets be used on any sport?

In most cases free bets can be used on a wide range of sports markets including football, horse racing, tennis, and accumulators. However some promotions restrict free bets to specific markets such as bet builders or accumulators, so it is always worth checking the terms.

Which bookmakers offer the best free bet promotions?

The best welcome offer depends on the free bet value and the qualifying bet required. On this page we compare the latest bookmaker promotions so you can quickly see which offers provide the most value.

Do free bets return the stake if the bet wins?

Most free bets are stake not returned, meaning the original free bet stake is not paid out if the bet wins. Instead you receive the profit from the bet.
