Qualifying bet

Your qualifying bet must be a football or horse racing multiple with 3+ selections and minimum total odds of 3.00. Check the back odds at Betway and the lay odds at Smarkets to find suitable selections. Look for overall odds around 5.00 (4/1) and above; high odds should give you more profit than low odds.
Use the ‘Money Back if Bet Loses‘ setting on the Matched Betting Calculator to calculate your lay stake. You can enter £24 as your ‘Cashback‘ figure as that’s the amount you can expect to convert your £30 free bet into (80%), should your qualifying bet lose.
Place your £30 qualifying back bet on an eligible football or horse racing multiple at Betway (within 7 days of registering).
Place your lay bet against the same multiple at Smarkets.

Free bet

If your qualifying bet wins, you’ll make your profit at Betway, and you won’t need to place any further bets. If your qualifying bet loses, your £30 free bet should be credited within an hour of settling.
Check the back odds at Betway and the lay odds at Smarkets to find a suitable selection.
Use the ‘Free Bet‘ setting on the Matched Betting Calculator to calculate your lay stake.
Place your £30 free back bet at Betway (valid for 7 days).
Place your lay bet against the same selection at Smarkets.

Free spins

Cash funds are used before bonus funds, so ensure your real money balance is £0 before wagering your free spins.

Wager your 100 free spins on More Unusual Suspects within 7 days. Any winnings can be withdrawn as cash.

Hi Matt. Thanks for your help with this blog, I wish I had found it years ago. With the money back bets the maths is confusing me a bit. With the ‘Cashback’ in the calculator you say to put about £24 in which I understand is how much would be made either way, but you are getting all the £30 back so why wouldn’t you put this as £30?

I dont know if im missing something haha, thanks in advance

  Hi Harry,
  
  Your ‘Cashback’ figure should be the amount of your cash refund or the amount you expect to convert if your refund is credited as a free bet or bonus.
  
  So, with that in mind, you would only enter £30.00 if the refund was paid in cash.
  
  For this offer, Betway match losing stakes as a free bet up to £30.00. You can usually convert a free bet into around 80% cash, so you can use a ‘Cashback’ figure of £24.00.
  
  I hope that helps.

Hey there,

I’m doing this offer just now and will make well shy of £18, it’s looking like about £11.90 for me. Any time I am doing an accumulator the lay odds are way off the back odds so there’s always a drop in profit at that stage. What sort of odds would you be looking at getting to make £18 overall? My figures just aren’t matching up with the predicted profits. Makes me feel like I am missing something.

But hey for the sake of perspective, thanks for the free £11.90 all the same 😀

Cheers

  I’ve just had a quick look, and you can get Liverpool (v Southampton), Rayo Vallecano (v Levante) and Real Madrid (v Real Betis) at combined back odds of 5.175 and lay odds of 5.70 for a profit of £16.64. Admittedly, still short of the £18.00 mark, but there should be even better opportunities over a busy weekend.
  
  I hope that helps.

Hi Matt. Great blog!

I’ve been following carefully up until this point. I’m confused by this offer though.

For the qualifying bet:

At Betway I’m BACKING a ‘horse racing multiple’ with 3 selections.

For the LAY bet I’m trying to back AGAINST the 3 selection as per the instructions: “Place your lay bet AGAINST the same multiple at Smarkets.”

But I can’t bet AGAINST multiples at SMARKETS.

Am I missing something??

Thanks in advance.

Hi Matt,

My £30 acca lost (5.28 total odds) yet I received no matched free bet, nor did I receive any free spins. The bet settled over three hours ago at this point.

Could you advise please?

  Hi Lewis,
  
  I imagine it was, but was your accumulator on football or horse racing with 3+ selections?
  
  If so, you should be eligible for the free bet and free spins, so I recommend getting in touch with Betway to see why it hasn’t been credited. It might be that it’s just a glitch in the system and they’ll credit the free bet and free spins manually.

I cant place a bet on this bookmaker. It is always saying I have exceeded maximum allowed stake. I have tried verifying but my account is already verified.

  It might be worth reaching out to them via live chat and querying it, John. It sounds like you’ve been stake-restricted.

    Yup. Looks like it. I have had a chat with customer service and they were not very helpful. I decided to close the account instead and maybe I will try in 6 months. Hopefully, things will be different.
