Free Bet & Payment Methods
Several bookmakers will not give you the free bet if you deposit via Skrill, Neteller or some other e-wallet service. So be mindful of this, so you don’t get caught out.
Where our team have researched a particular free bet, we will highlight it on the individual bookie’s page if e-wallets are excluded. Still, it’s always worth checking the bookie’s website during the signup process.
Other Free Bets Restrictions
Some free bet promotions require you to use a mobile app to claim it; if this is a requirement, it will be displayed in the terms and conditions.
Some free bet promotions are restricted to specific events like Football or Horse Racing. The Cheltenham Festival, for example, sees some of the most generous free bet offers as the buzz and excitement of the festival grip the nation. Another popular time of the year when you are likely to see a lot of free bet offers is at the start of a new Premier League season when Premier League betting offers become popular.
Another critical area to look for is that certain types of free bets are restricted to bet type that has mini odds requirements.
For example, if the top of the league is playing the bottom of the league at home, then you will see short odds for the home favourite, and backing the home team to win is not likely to meet the free bet requirements.
There are many ways you can earn Free Bets with an online betting site. Many of the best sites run a loyalty club or reward scheme where a percentage of your losses are returned as a free bet.
In most cases, the online bookie will notify you via their website, or within the app if you are entitled to some form of free bet reward and if you sign up to receive promotions, you can have these offers delivered straight to your inbox.
