If you’re a new bettor in the U.K. looking to get started on Bet365 Sport, one of the first things you’ll want to take advantage of is their New Player Offer, designed to give you a boost as you embark on your betting journey.

Claiming the Bet365 New Player Offer is straightforward, but there are a few key steps to follow to ensure that you meet the terms and conditions, maximize the bonus, and get the best experience.

In this guide, we will take you through each step of the process, from creating your account to placing your first bet with the bonus funds.

Bet365 Sport Welcome Offer

Step 1: Understand the Bet365 New Player Offer

Before jumping into the registration process, it’s essential to understand exactly what the Bet365 New Player Offer entails. The offer is typically structured as a bet credit bonus, where Bet365 matches your initial deposit or bet with bonus funds that you can use to place bets on a wide range of sports markets.

For example, the current Bet365 New Player Offer is this:

This type of offer allows you to place bets with the bonus money without risking your own funds.

However, the exact offer can change from time to time, so it’s important to check the specific terms and conditions on Bet365’s offers page when you sign up.

Key Terms to Understand:

  • Minimum Deposit: Most new player offers require a minimum deposit (e.g., £5 or £10).
  • Deposit Method: Your deposit will need to be made using a qualifying deposit method. Usually debit cards are the best option.
  • Qualifying Bet(s): You must place at least one qualifying bet to unlock the bonus funds. The qualifying bet often needs to be placed at minimum odds, such as 1/2 (1.50). It will also need to be of a sufficient amount to trigger the bonus.
  • Bet Credits: These are the bonus funds that can be used to place additional bets, but they cannot be withdrawn as cash. They will be credited to you once your qualifying bet has been settled.
  • Wagering Requirements: Some offers may have wagering requirements that need to be met before any winnings from bet credits can be withdrawn. With the current bet365 Sports New Player Offer, there is a 1x wagering requirement on your free bet credits.
  • Time Limits: There may a time limit in which you must make your qualifying deposit and/or first bet. Subsequently, you may also need to use your bet credits within a stated time before they expire.

Full Terms and Conditions

Qualifying

  1. Offer available to new customers registering on or after 12:00 UK Time on 2nd March 2023.
  2. Make a qualifying deposit of £5* or more to qualify for 300% of that amount in Bet Credits up to £30* in Bet Credits. Your qualifying deposit is your largest deposit (capped at £10*) made in the 7 days prior to you claiming the offer. PayPal, paysafecard and all other prepaid credit and debit cards, where available, cannot be used for either your qualifying deposit or any subsequent withdrawal of returns from Bet Credits stakes unless we have successfully verified an accepted form of your Identity Documents and you have entered a Postal Verification Code (PVC), or we have successfully verified two accepted forms of your Identity Documents.For more details on accepted Identity Documents, how to enter a PVC, or to upload your Identity Documents, simply log in to your account, go to the Account menu then My Account and select Verification .
  3. You must claim your offer within 30 days of registering your account.
  4. The maximum amount of Bet Credits that can be claimed is £30*. For example, a qualifying deposit of £20* will qualify for £30* of Bet Credits.

Releasing your Bet Credits

  1. Your Bet Credits will be held in your account balance and are non-withdrawable. To release your Bet Credits you must place qualifying bets with a total stake value equal to or greater than the value of your qualifying deposit (capped at £10*) and they must settle within 30 days of claiming the offer. Only qualifying bets placed and settled after claiming the offer will count towards this requirement.
  2. Your Bet Credits will normally be available to use within one hour of the qualifying settled bet requirement being met.
  3. You may have more than one Bet Credits offer available on your account at any one time. However, qualifying settled bets will only count towards releasing one of the offers. You may choose which offer is active within the My Offers section of the Account Menu.
  4. Any single bets placed at odds of less than 1/5 (1.20) will not count towards the release of your Bet Credits. In multiple bets at least one selection must have odds of 1/5 (1.20) or greater to count.
  5. bet365 does not allow the ‘backing of both sides’ of a market or betting on multiple selections within a market/fixture combination to unfairly manipulate the release of Bet Credits. Where there is more than one stake placed on a market/fixture combination, only the largest cumulative stake on an individual selection (either pre-match or In-Play) will count towards the settled bets requirement (if you have placed the same highest cumulative stake on more than one selection then only one will count towards the settled bets requirement). Any bets settled on other selections in the same market/fixture combination will not count towards the release of your Bet Credits. For example, if you have a £5 bet on Man Utd to beat Chelsea and an £8 bet on Chelsea to beat Man Utd on the Full Time Result market, only the stake on Chelsea will count towards the release of your Bet Credits (if both bets were for £5 then £5 would count towards the release of your Bet Credits). If you were to place a further £4 bet on Man Utd to beat Chelsea, this cumulative £9 stake will count towards the release of your Bet Credits and not the £8 stake on Chelsea. In addition, if you were to place bets on the Win and Each Way market on three horses in the same race, two for a £5 stake and another for an £8 stake, only the £8 stake would count towards the release of your Bet Credits. This restriction also applies to market/fixture combinations where the same market is available on multiple separate occasions within the same fixture (either pre-match or In-Play), for example Tennis Current Set Winner or Next Game. If you have a £5 bet on Jelena Ostapenko to win the 3rd game (Next Game) against Ons Jabeur, and have a further £2 bet on Jelena Ostapenko to win the 4th game (Next Game), both bets will count towards the release of your Bet Credits. However, if you were to place a £9 bet on Ons Jabeur to win the 5th game (Next Game) only that bet will count towards the settled bets requirement, as it is the highest stake on a selection in that market/fixture combination, and not the £7 staked on Jelena Ostapenko. This term is applied in conjunction with the other restrictions.
  6. Fully Cashed Out, Instant Games, Gaming, Free Bets, void bets, In-Play bets which are settled as a push and Fantasy Sports entries do not count towards the release of your Bet Credits. Where a stake has been partially Cashed Out, only the remaining active stake will count towards the release of your Bet Credits. Where a bet has been edited using our Edit Bet feature, the original stake will not count towards the release of your Bet Credits and only the new stake on the new bet will count.
  7. If you do not have qualifying settled bets to the value of your qualifying deposit (capped at £10*) within 30 days of claiming the offer, your Bet Credits will be forfeit and removed and the offer will be closed.

Using Bet Credits

  1. Your Bet Credits are non-withdrawable. Any returns from Bet Credits stakes will be added to your Withdrawable Balance but Bet Credits stakes are not included in any returns. For example, a £10 bet placed at odds of 2/1 (3.00) would give a return of £30 (£20 winnings plus £10 stake), whereas a £10 Bet Credits stake placed at odds of 2/1 (3.00) would give a net return of £20, as the £10 Bet Credits stake is not returned.
  2. Stakes can be funded in part by your Bet Credits and part with your Withdrawable Balance; however the Bet Credits element of the stake will not be included in any returns. For example, a £10 bet placed at odds of 2/1 (3.00) which was funded by £5 Bet Credits and £5 cash would give a net return of £25 (£20 winnings plus £5 cash stake) as the £5 Bet Credits stake would not be returned. If a bet is void and has had an opportunity to win (for example, in the event of a push), Bet Credits stakes will not be returned. If a bet is void and has not had an opportunity to win (for example, when a Goalscorer bet is placed on a player who does not then take part in the match), Bet Credits stakes will be returned.
  3. For the purpose of Cash Out, the value displayed will already have the Bet Credits stake removed and will be the actual return received if Cashed Out.
  4. Your Bet Credits cannot be:
    • used as stakes on Tote (including other pool betting), Colossus bets, Lotto markets and Fantasy Sports entries;
    • used as stakes on Bankers, If Bets, Reverse If Bets or Teasers.
  5. Your Bet Credits will expire 7 days after they are added to your Bet Credits balance. If additional Bet Credits are added to your Bet Credits balance within this 7 day period, the total Bet Credits balance will expire 7 days after the last addition.
  6. Bets placed using Bet Credits will not qualify for the following boosts:
    • Acca Boost

Anytime Goalscorer

To unlock the bonus bet credits, you’ll need to place a qualifying bet. This is a bet that meets the specific criteria set out by Bet365 to activate the bonus. Here’s how to place your qualifying bet:

  1. Choose a Sport and Event: Bet365 offers a wide range of sports markets, from football and tennis to basketball, horse racing, and more. Choose the sport and event you want to bet on.
  2. Check the Minimum Odds Requirement: The qualifying bet usually needs to be placed at minimum odds, such as 1/2 (1.50). Ensure that the odds of your selection meet this requirement.
  3. Enter Your Stake: Enter the amount you want to wager. Keep in mind that your first bet may need to be for a specific amount to qualify for the offer. For the current bonus it is an amount from £1 to £10. A £10 bet on a qualifying market will ensure you receive the full £30 in free bet credits from the current welcome offer.
  4. Place the Bet: Once you’ve selected your event, market, and stake, review your bet and click “Place Bet” to confirm.

Step 5: Claim Your Bet Credits

Once your qualifying bet is placed and settled (i.e., the event is complete and the bet is graded as a win or loss), Bet365 will automatically credit your account with the bet credits. These credits will appear in your account balance, ready to be used on future bets.

Your bet credits are in addition to any winnings you may land from your first bet(s) on the site.

Important Notes:

  • Bet Credits Cannot Be Withdrawn: Bet credits are for betting purposes only and cannot be withdrawn as cash. However, any winnings generated from using the bet credits are yours to keep, and they can be withdrawn once any wagering requirements are met.
  • Time Limit: There may be a time limit on using your bet credits. Be sure to check the terms and conditions to avoid losing any unused credits. Typically, this is around seven days from receipt of your bet credits.

Step 6: Use Your Bet Credits

Now that you’ve received your bet credits, it’s time to use them! Bet365 offers a wide range of sports and markets for you to explore with your bonus funds. Here’s how to use your bet credits:

  1. Select an Event: Choose an upcoming sporting event you want to bet on.
  2. Check Your Bet Slip: When placing a bet, your bet slip will show an option to use bet credits. Tick this box to place the bet using your bonus funds instead of your real money balance.
  3. Place Your Bet: Enter your stake, and if everything looks good, click “Place Bet.” The bet stake will be deducted from your bet credits instead of your cash balance.

Pro Tip:

Use your bet credits wisely by spreading them across multiple events or markets. Since bet credits don’t impact your real balance, you can experiment with different strategies without risking your own money.

Step 7: Withdraw Your Winnings
