888sport Sign Up Offer

Description

Register an account with 888sport, deposit and bet £10+ on any sport and get £30 in free bets.

There have been multiple reports of people being instantly bonus-restricted upon signing up. I recommend using a well-established email address, as it’s been suggested that new email addresses may act as a red flag. Another possible reason for the restrictions is 888sport’s acquisition of William Hill. You won’t know until you try, so sign up, and if you become bonus-restricted, write it off and move on to the next offer.

Qualifying bet

  1. Check the back odds at 888sport and the lay odds at Smarkets to find a suitable selection. Your qualifying bet must be placed at minimum odds of 1.50 (1/2).
  2. Use the ‘Qualifying Bet‘ setting on the Matched Betting Calculator to calculate your lay stake.
  3. Place your £10 qualifying back bet at 888sport.
  4. Place your lay bet against the same selection at Smarkets.

Free bets

  1. Your 3 x £10 free bets will be credited upon settlement of your qualifying bet. They are valid on horse racing, football, and any in-play market.
  2. Check the back odds at 888sport and the lay odds at Smarkets to find a suitable horse racing selection.
  3. Use the ‘Free Bet‘ setting on the Matched Betting Calculator to calculate your lay stake.
  4. Place your first £10 free back bet on horse racing at 888sport (valid for 7 days).
  5. Place your lay bet against the same selection at Smarkets.
  6. Repeat steps 10-13 for your remaining 2 x £10 free bets.

In-play odds can fluctuate much more than pre-event odds. The best strategy for your in-play free bet is to look for a selection during half-time of football matches when the odds are stable.

Limit your qualifying loss to around £1 as a rough guide. Aim for £8 cash (80%) from your £10 free bet on horse racing, £8 cash (80%) from your £10 free bet on football, and £7.50 cash (75%) from your £10 free in-play bet. Based on those figures, you should make a £22.50 profit on this 888sport offer.
