What is a Free Bet?
Free bets are the welcome offers given away by bookmakers to attract new potential users or rewarding existing customers. New customer offers are generally offered as a percentage of the first amount invested, a fixed amount that it is added to the first deposit or an enhanced offer based on a match outcome.
The below is a guide, explaining everything you need to know to make the most of the best free bets from UK bookmakers, whether you are a new or existing customer. The terms and conditions of each offer and from each UK bookmaker vary quite widely so it’s always important to check what you are signing up for. For example, some bookmakers might require different levels of a minimum deposit once you open an account to claim the free offer amount.
Different Types of Free Bets:
- Betting amount matched
- Free bet credits
- No deposit needed
- Fixed amount is added to your first deposit
- Fixed amount is added to the bet on the qualifying market, should you win

What are the best free bets for existing users?
So far we’ve talked about new customers, which are generally the most lucrative with bookies looking to encourage new sign ups. Despite of this we see an increasing number of bonus offers for existing customers as players become more loyal to a specific brand. Most bookies now offer loyalty programs, betting clubs or promo deals for existing, regular players.
This is giving you the chance to use free bets for featured matches or every time you deposit a minimum amount. For example, some bookmakers offer you free bets if you place your bets on the recommended accumulator or if you bet a certain amount on a featured match.
