Qualifying bet

Check the back odds at Bet UK and the lay odds at Smarkets to find a suitable sports selection. Your qualifying bet must be placed at odds of at least 2.00 (evens).
Use the ‘Qualifying Bet‘ setting on the Matched Betting Calculator to calculate your lay stake.
Place your £10 qualifying back bet at Bet UK within 7 days of registering.
Place your lay bet against the same selection at Smarkets.

Free bets

Once your qualifying bet settles, Bet UK will credit your 4 x £10 free bets. Two must be used on football accas with at least four selections, and the other two must be used on sports multiples with at least two selections.
For a football acca, find four football selections at Bet UK that you can also combine into a multiple at Smarkets. Check the combined back and lay odds before placing either bet.
Use the ‘Free Bet‘ setting on the Matched Betting Calculator to calculate your lay stake using the total odds of the acca.
Place your £10 football acca free bet at Bet UK, selecting the free bet checkbox on the betslip.
Lay the matching four-selection multiple at Smarkets. Check that every selection and the bet type match your Bet UK acca.
Repeat for your second £10 football acca free bet.
Follow the same process for your two £10 sports multiple free bets, using at least two selections in each multiple.

As a rough guide, allow around £0.50 for your qualifying loss. If you convert the two football acca free bets at 60% and the two sports multiple free bets at 70%, you’ll make around £25.50 profit overall. Your actual profit will depend on the back and lay odds you find.

General advice and example for ‘Bet X, Get Y’ offers

Place your qualifying bets at low odds, ensuring you meet any minimum odds requirement. Use the ‘Qualifying Bet’ setting on the Matched Betting Calculator to calculate your lay stakes.

Once received, you can convert any free bets or bonuses into cash. Use the ‘Free Bet’ setting on the Matched Betting Calculator to calculate your lay stakes. It’s best to place free bets at high odds to maximise your profits.

See my ‘Bet X, Get Y‘ guide for a complete walkthrough of this offer type.

How to lay a multiple bet

Your best option is to lay your multiple at Smarkets, as their platform allows you to build any multiple and lay it as one bet. Therefore, you can place your multiple bet at the bookmaker and then build and lay the same multiple at Smarkets.

See my ‘Laying Multiples‘ guide for a complete walkthrough.

Hi, when doing multiples is it better/easier to do them on football as I’m guessing the horse racing would be more difficult?

Is this still only available on mobile? I look at their website and its advertised on there, no mention of claiming only on mobile. I ask because I had wanted to use the link on Topcashback to claim £15 cashback bonus when registering as well.

BetUK have not given me the free bet despite me meeting all the requirements. (bet on mobile, £10 stake, 1.5 min odds, opt into promotion).

Also, my current withdrawal request has been pending for days. Avoid this worthless site, it’s not worth trying to get their free bet.

Hi,

A little confusion with this one – When backing, do I use Multiples or Combination?

And how do I know the back odds to enter into the calculator?

Cheers

  Either works, Callum.
  
  ‘Combination – Fourfold‘ or ‘Multiples – Fourfold‘
  
  The ‘Combination’ option simply combines all selections in your bet slip into one bet.
  
  The ‘Multiples’ option allows to you place multiple bets on your selections at once. For example, if you had four selections in your bet slip, you could select the ‘single’ option and that would place a single bet on all four selections at once.
  
  I hope that helps.

Hi, I have an issue with the Bet Builder £10 free bet. On BetUK if I try to back on two different events I don’t get the option to use my £10 free bet, only if I choose two things for the same event, whereas on Smarkets you can only lay multiples if they’re different events?

  Hi Charlie,
  
  Yes, that’s correct. You need place a Bet Builder (same event) on selections that are layable as one bet at the betting exchange.
  
  For example, you could place your Bet Builder on ‘Team A to win / Both teams to score – Yes‘. You could lay this at Smarkets in their ‘Winner and both teams to score‘ market.
  
  For more examples and a walkthrough, please see my Bet Builders Guide.

    Thank you for the reply. Currently looking to place the bet but again am a bit confused. So as an example, on Bet UK I am looking at the Saudi Arabia vs Mali event. I’m backing Mali, and then under ‘Total Goals’ am clicking Over 3.5, which gives me odds of 8.00. When laying then on Smarkets, I’m clicking on ‘Winner and over’ and then finding ‘Mali / over 3.5 goals’ at odds of 10.00.
    
    I’m confused because one seems to be total goals of the match at 3.5, whereas on Smarkets it seems to be total goals scored by Mali? Or it it total goals 3.5 on Smarkets as well?
    
    Thanks.

      That’s the correct lay selection to match your back bet, Charlie.
      
      In the ‘Winner and over‘ market at Smarkets, ‘Mali / over 3.5 goals‘ is for Mali to win the match and there to be over 3.5 total goals.
      
      I hope that helps.

May be a daft question but on Smarkets I am trying to do a bet builder but it won’t let me select the toggle for multiples. Can you advise where I am going wrong?

  Hi there,
  
  You can’t build and lay Bet Builders on Smarkets. Instead, you need to place your Bet Builder at the bookmaker on a combination that you can lay as one bet at Smarkets.
  
  For example, you could place your Bet Builder on ‘Home (Full Time) / Yes (Both Teams To Score)‘. You can then lay ‘Home / Yes‘ at Smarkets in their ‘Winner and both teams to score‘ market.
  
  Please see my Bet Builders Guide for more layable combinations.

No matter what combination of bets on the same event that I choose on Smarkets, It keeps saying “Current selections are not available for a multiple at the moment.” when I switch from BUY to SELL. I think I’ll give up on the £10 bet builder one because it’s impossible for me.

  I think I’ve figured it out. I just used the “Winner and both teams to score” market on Smarkets to lay against a double at BetUK with the Winner and both teams to score.

    Yes, that’s the way to do it, Saulul. You can only build and lay multiples on different events at Smarkets.
    
    As you’ve done, for Bet Builders, you need to build a bet at the bookmaker that you can lay as one bet at the betting exchange. Please see my Bet Builders Guide for suggested combinations for different Bet Builder requirements.

Hi Matt,

Hands down the OddsMonkey subscription is the best thing I have bought! I have 2 quick questions:

1. As the Betfair Exchange charges 5% commission on any winnings from using their exchange, would you agree that I should keep most of my “float” in Smarkets and use Betfair more sparingly?

2. Have you tried Outplayed at all? I assume they are using the same sites for sign ups etc but I have seen reference to a new Lucky 15’s calculator that apparently is really good. What is a Lucky 15, can we identify the best bests to put within it without a “lucky 15 calculator” and do you think that oddsmonkey will follow suit with a similar calculator?

Thanks

Tina

  Hi Tina,
  
  Yes, I would recommend keeping most of your bankroll in your Smarkets account. As part of your OddsMonkey subscription, you can opt in to pay 0% commission with Smarkets, which will make a big difference to your total profits.
  
  A Lucky 15 involves betting on four selections and consists of all the combinations of bets possible. There are four singles, six doubles, four trebles and a four-fold, so 15 individual bets.
  
  Outplayed are a very similar platform to OddsMonkey. I haven’t used the new tool, but the idea seems decent enough. It’s another of those strategies where the variance is quite high, but it’s perhaps useful for using on gubbed accounts. Whether or not it’s worth the £150 monthly fee you’d have to pay to access it, I wouldn’t know.
  
  I’m sure OddsMonkey will be aware, and if they feel it’s worth adding to their own range of tools, I would imagine they’ll look to develop something similar.
  
  I hope that helps.

Hi Matt,

I’m trying to lay the bet builder and get this message for every selection I try to make on Smarkets: Current selections are not available for a multiple at the moment.

I asked live chat and they said you can’t lay a bet builder and never have been able to?

Not sure where to go from here.

Oh also, they might have changed the offer cos I got 2 £10 free bet builders and a £10 football free bet

Cheers,
Vijay

  Hi Vijay,
  
  Thanks for the heads up on the offer change, I’ll get that updated.
  
  Their advice is correct. You cannot lay a bet via their ‘Bet Builder’ markets.
  
  Instead, you need to build a bet at Bet UK that you can lay as one bet in one of Smarkets’ other markets. For example, you could build ‘England to win / Both teams to score – Yes‘ at Bet UK and lay ‘England / Yes‘ at Smarkets in their ‘Winner and both teams to score‘ market.
  
  Please see my Bet Builders Guide for more layable combinations and a walkthrough.

  Hi Scott,
  
  BetUK and BetMGM are both part of the LeoVegas Gaming PLC, so there can sometimes be overlap between their brands.
  
  If you’ve previously had an account closed or restricted with another LeoVegas Group bookmaker, it’s possible that additional checks may be triggered when signing up. However, we’ve also seen plenty of members successfully hold accounts with multiple brands in the group.
  
  I wouldn’t recommend using different details; always register with your genuine information. If you do encounter any issues, it’s worth contacting support, as they may be able to manually review and unlock the account.
  
  Hope that helps!
