How to Claim Free Bets Today
Free bets are betting promotions typically offered by sports betting websites to customers who are completing their registration for the first time.
To qualify for new customer offers, you usually have to take some action using your own money, such as making a deposit or placing a bet yourself.
Precisely what you must do will be included in the terms and conditions associated with the free bet offer. Such terms are usually easy to understand, and once you have ticked all the boxes your free bet should be available to you.
There are several types of free bets, and we will run you through each of the most common betting offers for new customers in a little more detail below.
Really all you need to do is complete your registration, make a deposit or place a bet, and then meet any other criteria – it’s all very straightforward.
One thing to look out for – to gain your free bet deal you sometimes have to enter a bonus code or a promo code. If you’ve shopped online and used a voucher code, then bonus codes and promo codes work in the same way.
You just enter the required code when you complete your registration or make a deposit to claim the associated bonus or promotion. If you don’t supply the required bonus code or promo code, then sadly you won’t get your bonus!

The Latest Free Bet Promo Codes November 2022
Just like with any other betting offer, free bets sometimes require you to use a promo code. Whilst this may seem like a trivial thing to mention, it’s always important to check whether a promo code is needed.
It’s often the case that they are required when signing up to a new bookie. Leave out the promo code and you risk not being able to claim the free bet welcome offer that you are looking for.
Normally, it’s as simple as inputting your free bet promo code on the registration screen, or maybe when you first deposit funds into your new account. It’s always worth checking whether a promo code is needed for free bets for existing customers as well, however, as some bookies may require them.
Types of New Customer Betting Offers
There are several different types of free bet offers commonly offered as betting promotions. We’ve picked out the six most popular below, with a brief explanation of each.
- Matched Free Bet: With this deal, online bookies or betting apps with free bets will match your real-money bet with an identical free bet, up to a specified limit. For example, if you make a £10 bet using your own money, you’ll receive a £10 free bet.
- Matched Deposit: Not strictly a free bet, but with this promotion you receive bonus money that you can use to place free bets. For a 100 per cent matched deposit, if you make a £50 deposit you will receive a £50 bonus. Matched deposit bonuses come with upper and lower limits and other terms and conditions.
- Risk-Free Bets: If the deal offered by an online bookie is a risk-free bet, this will allow you to place a bet (with limits) that cannot lose. Say you place a £20 bet following the terms of the risk-free bet offer and it loses, then you’ll receive a £20 free bet as compensation.
- Bet X Get X in Free Bets: Similar to the matched free bet but with varying values. If you place a minimum wager using your own cash, then you’ll receive the free bets on offer. For example, with a ‘Bet £10 Get £30’ offer, you only need to place a £10 free bet to receive your £30 free bet deal.
- No-Deposit Free Bet: The closest thing to free money! With this type of deal, you only need to complete your registration to get your free bet. No deposit of your own cash is necessary.
- Enhanced Odds (Winnings Paid in Free Bets): With this bonus you’ll receive boosted odds on a specific event. If you place a bet using your own cash on the event and it’s a winning bet, then typically the money you win over the normal odds will be paid out in free bets.
How to Choose Free Bets
It’s important to only choose the best free bets. A good rule of thumb here is that if an offer looks too good to be true, then it probably is!
Check the terms and conditions of any free bet offer, looking for high minimum odds, low winnings caps and unfavourable wagering. The best betting offers for new customers are those that treat the customer fairly and squarely.
Also check out the site offering the deal, making sure it is legitimately licensed and has a decent reputation. All of the betting offers listed on this page are guaranteed to meet the ‘fair and square’ criteria and are offered by safe, secure and reputable online sports betting sites.
What Can I Use Free Bets On?
Usually, you are free to use your free bets on any event or contest that you wish to.
One huge tip here – watch out for an upcoming sporting ‘big one’ such as the World Cup finals, the start of the English Premier League season, the Cheltenham Festival, the latest round of UEFA Champions League fixtures or the Grand National.
Online bookies typically offer the biggest and best betting offers and free bets when these events swing around in order to drum up customer interest.
Some restrictions may apply when you receive your free bet, such as not being able to use the bet on specific markets, or having your free bet deal tied to specific sports. Such restrictions are rare, but it’s always worth checking your free bet terms and conditions just to make sure.

Latest Events With Free Bets - November 2022
- Premier League: The Premier League is the biggest footballing competition in the world, and with that popularity, comes plenty of free bets. Bookmakers will often offer Premier League free bets, odds boosts and more for each round of fixtures. With 38 rounds of fixtures every season, that gives you plenty of chances to cash in your free bets.
- 2022 World Cup: It’s been 4 years since the last World Cup and this year, we’re heading to Qatar. With every major footballing league postponing their season, all eyes will be on Qatar during November and December. We expect every leading bookie to be offering World Cup betting offers both before and during the tournament. With up to 4 games a day during the groups stages, there’s sure to be a range of free bets on offer.
- Champions League: When the biggest teams in Europe meet in the Champions League, bookmakers often stand to attention. Particularly during the group stages, with 5 UK based teams still involved in the competition. Keep an eye out for Champions League free bets during every round of fixtures, with bookmakers often offering free bets for the televised fixtures on each match day.
Common Terms & Conditions of Betting Sign Up Offers
Things would be a lot simpler if betting sign up offers did not come with terms and conditions, but they do so we’ll just have to put up with it! There’s no need to be confused though, as we can offer you detailed explanations of all the most common free bets T&Cs.
- Stake Not Returned: You only get your winnings back from a successful free bet, not the free bet stake. If you use a £10 free bet on a wager with odds of 1/1 (evens) you will get back £10. A real-money wager with such odds usually returns £20.
- Expiry Dates: Free bets do not hang around forever. If your free bet is an offer in relation to your registration, then you’ll have a certain time period in which you can claim it. Once claimed, your free bet sign up offer will expire if you do not use it in time, and if your winnings require wagering you’ll have a limit as to how long that can take you.
- Minimum Deposit: All betting site offers will have a minimum deposit threshold, with £10 being the most typical. If you try to claim such an offer but only make a £5 deposit, then you’ve won’t get your free bet.
- Maximum Bonus: In terms of deposit bonuses, there will be a maximum in terms of the size of the bonus you can claim. If the maximum is £50 but you make a £100 deposit, then expect only to receive a £50 bonus.
- Minimum Stake: Like a deposit bonus, most free bet deals require a minimum stake, with £10 again being the most common limit. Stakes below this limit do not qualify for a bonus in this example.
- Minimum Odds: Qualifying bets can only be made on markets with minimum odds. The range of minimum odds is usually between 1/1 (evens) and 1/2. You may find that you can only use your free bet, once received, on markets with minimum odds too.
- Wagering Requirements: Sometimes your free bet winnings are held until you have completed wagering requirements using your own funds. If your free bet deal came with a 3X playthrough requirement and you won £10, then you would need to place £30 in bets using your own money before your free bet winnings would be released.
- Accepted Deposit Methods: Typically you will need to use a debit card for your qualifying deposits. E-wallets such as PayPal, Skrill and Neteller are usually out-of-scope for free bet offers. This is to stop people from opening multiple e-wallet accounts and claiming a free bet offer multiple times.
- Enhanced Odds: Enhanced odds are boosted prices offered on a specific event. It is important that you understand winnings in excess of the ‘starting price odds’ are usually paid as free bets or bonus cash, and hardly ever as real money that you can withdraw.
- Types of Bets: This is an odd one as with some free bet offers you can only place bets on single events, and with other free bet offers you can only place bets on anything other than single events (double, trebles and accas). Check the terms and conditions of your free bet offer to ensure you’re placing the correct types of bets.
Our Betting Experts’ 5 Free Bet Betting Tips
There’s plenty of UK free bets available out there, but we don’t want them to go to waste. To help you out, we’ve asked some of our betting experts for their top tips when it comes to using your free bets.
- Do Your Research: Just like with any bet, when you’re using your bookies free bet, make sure you do your research before staking. Whether you’re betting on a sport you're familiar with, or something you’re completely new to, it’s always worth doing a quick bit of research. Even if it’s just checking a team’s form, or seeing if a player is injured, it can all make a difference when it comes to wasting your free bet.
- Check the T&Cs: This is a tip that may be unique to free bet betting. With every free bet offer or betting promotion, there will always be a set of T&Cs. Each bookmaker will have their own T&Cs, and they may even vary from offer to offer. Odds restriction, minimum stakes or the amount of legs in an accumulator may all be stipulated in free bet terms and conditions. So before finally placing your bet, have a quick look over the terms and conditions to make sure your bet won’t be voided.
- Don’t Shoot For The Stars: It’s always tempting to place your free bets on a huge 10-fold accumulator for the weekend’s fixtures. But how often do those huge bets really come in? When using your free bet, it’s always best to rein it in a little bit and aim for something more realistic. After all, you don’t want to waste every free bet you get. Sometimes it’s fun to go for glory, but if you can get a return nine times out of 10, then you’ll notice a huge difference in your returns.
Free Bets for Existing Customers v Free Bets for New Customers
Free bet offers are typically reserved for new customers, as a way for bookies to entice new users to their site, especially new betting sites. But, that doesn’t mean that free bets for existing customers don’t exist.
Bookmakers still want to keep users on their site, so existing customers still get their fair share of free bets. However, they normally take on a different form to the free bets for new customers.
Below are a few examples of typical free bets for existing customers.
- Free Bet Clubs: A popular way to keep customers on their site is with bookmaker Free Bet Clubs. Typically, these clubs require you to opt in, stake a certain amount every week and you’ll be rewarded with a free bet to use the next week. The best thing about free bet clubs is that they typically last all year round and are accessible to all customers, so there is always a free bet on the horizon.
- Price Boosts: Almost every bookmaker in the UK offers price boosts of some sort. These boosts are normally on the biggest football matches of the weekend, or ahead of tournaments like golf majors or tennis grand slams. These price boosts give you a chance to back your favourites with typically market leading odds.
- Acca Insurance: Acca Insurance is an offer that is becoming more and more popular amongst leading bookmakers. Usually, acca insurance ensures that if 1 leg of your accumulator lets you down, your stake will be returned as a free bet. Each bookmaker has a slightly different acca insurance offer, so it’s worth checking terms and conditions for your favourite sites.
Enhanced Odds Offers
New customers typically get the best enhanced odds betting offers, but enhanced prices also crop up for existing customers.
For example, if Liverpool are playing Manchester City in the Premier League, and the normal odds are 11/10 for a Liverpool win, enhanced odds might boost the price to 4/1 for a Reds victory.
If you stake £10 on this deal and Liverpool win, you’ll get back your £10 stake, your £10 ‘normal’ winnings and £30 in free bets (for your enhanced odds).
Check the terms and conditions of enhanced odds bookies sign up offers to make sure you’ll get back what you’re expecting. Football is the most common sport for enhanced odds deals but deals for horse racing, golf betting and other markets pop up occasionally as well.
Free Bets UK Pros & Cons
Are There Free Bets on Betting Apps?
Betting apps with free bets have become more and more popular in recent years, and it comes as no surprise. Mobile betting gives bettors a much easier betting experience on the go, as well as sometimes offering unique free bet offers.
Although the majority of free bets will be available on all devices, some bookmakers offer specific betting app free bets in the hope that users will take to their app. However, it is worth remembering that any free bet that a betting site offers should always be available on their betting app, making it worthwhile to download your favourites.
Push notifications are often sent out ahead of big games or events with free bet offers, so it’s worth keeping an eye out. Below are some of the best betting apps available for you to check out.

Free Bet No Deposit v Regular Free Bets
Free bet no deposit deals may look great on the surface - but they often come with extremely tight terms and conditions. This is understandable, as any bookie giving away no deposit free bets like there’s no tomorrow would soon go out of business!
Regular free bets UK are usually the better deal as they come with looser terms. They are also much easier to find!
Free Bet Offers v Bonus Offers
Free bet offers and bonus new customer offers are similar but there is a slight difference.
Bonus offers usually have higher value but stricter conditions. For example, it’s almost impossible to find a bonus offer that does not come without wagering requirements. The best free bet offers usually come without strict wagering requirements.
With any deal, the more wagering you have to get through, the less chance you have of coming out of your bonus deal on top.

FAQ
Can you withdraw free bet winnings?
Usually yes, but you will have to meet some specific terms and conditions first. Some bookies will require you to wager your free bet funds a certain amount of times before they can be withdrawn, so make sure to read terms and conditions thoroughly when availing of an offer.
How do you get free bets?
Free bets UK customers can use are listed right here on this page. You can sign up to any of these free bet offers from licensed betting sites and can claim as many as you like overall, but only one per site.
Are free bets really free?
They are, but they are not ‘free money’. If you receive a free bet, you cannot cash it out straight away, as wagering requirements come into play. There are many different types of free bet offer, so make sure you understand the terms and conditions before claiming one.
Which betting apps give you free bets?
If a site offers you a free bet, then that free bet usually applies to both desktop sites and the best betting apps. You can apply for your free bet using either. Sadly, betting app-specific free bets are now a rarity.
Do you get real money from free bets?
If you win using your free sports bet, then your winnings are usually paid as real cash. Note your free bet stake is not returned to you, unlike a bet you place using your own money. Occasionally, free bet winnings will be returned as further free bets, but this is rare.
How many free bets can you claim?
You can claim as many different free bets as you like from different online betting sites. However, you can only claim a site-specific free bet once. You cannot open two accounts at a site to claim the same offer twice.
Can you cash out free bets?
No – free bet funds must be wagered and turned into real money before you can withdraw them. If you use a free sports bet on a live in-play market, then you will not be able to use the 'cash out' feature as you typically would on live bets using your own money.
Do free bets expire?
Yes – check the T&Cs so you know the expiry dates of a free bet deal. Once you sign up for a site, you will have a limited time to claim a new customer betting offer, a limited time in which you need to use your free bets, and a limited time to meet wagering requirements.
Can I get free bets without depositing?
You can, but no deposit free bets are very hard to find and come with strict wagering conditions. This is understandable if you think about it - as unlimited no deposit free bets would leave a bookmaker seriously out of pocket.
What is a risk-free bet?
With this type of deal, you get your initial bet stake back (up to a limit) as a free sports bet if your real-money bet loses. Note that your qualifying bet on this occasion has to use your own money.
