Account setup
- Sign up for a betting exchange account if you haven’t already. You’ll need this to match your bookmaker bet.
- Register an account with Unibet.
- Deposit £40 using a debit card.
- Switch to decimal odds.
Qualifying bet
- Check the back odds at Unibet and the lay odds at the betting exchange to find a suitable selection. You must place your qualifying bet at minimum odds of 1.40 (2/5). Look for odds around 5.00 (4/1) and above, as 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 £36 as your ‘Cashback‘ figure as that’s the amount you can expect to convert your £40 bonus into (90%), should your qualifying bet lose.
- Place your £40 qualifying back bet at Unibet.
- Place your lay bet against the same selection at the betting exchange.
Sports bonus
- If your qualifying bet wins, you’ll make your profit at Unibet, and you won’t need to place any further bets. If your qualifying bet loses, you’ll receive a £40 bonus.
- Before withdrawing your bonus, you must wager it three times at minimum odds of 1.40 (2/5). That’s £120 worth of bets (£40 x 3). Check the back odds at Unibet and the lay odds at the betting exchange to find a suitable selection. Your bonus stake will be returned with any winnings, so keeping your odds low will minimise the funds you need in your betting exchange account.
- Use the ‘Free Bet‘ setting on the Matched Betting Calculator and check the ‘Stake returned‘ box to calculate your lay stake.
- Place your £40 bonus back bet at Unibet (valid for 7 days from registration).
- Place your lay bet against the same selection at the betting exchange.
- If your bonus bet loses, you’ll make your profit at the betting exchange, and you won’t need to place any further bets. If your bonus bet wins, repeat steps 10-13 for the remaining £80 worth of wagering.
Casino bonus
- Wager your £10 casino bonus within 7 days (some slot games are excluded). Wager 50 times to withdraw any winnings.
