Free bets & offers

Big fights bring big promotions, and a promotion is only as good as its small print. This section sorts offers by what they demand of the customer.

Price boosts and enhanced odds, free bets with or without a deposit, welcome and sign-up offers, money back, 2up, best odds guaranteed, each-way offers, existing-customer deals and matched betting are covered, as is the idea behind promo codes.

On 19 January 2026 new Gambling Commission rules took effect: a 10x ceiling on wagering requirements, and a ban on any offer that moves a customer from betting into a second product type. Free bets without any wagering condition may sit outside the cap or inside it; nothing establishes which, so the operator’s terms settle it.
