Bet £10 Get £30 in Free Bets. New customers only; minimum deposit £10, minimum odds 1/5, 30x wagering, free bets valid for 7 days. 18+, T&Cs apply.

Welcome offer

Bet £10 Get £30 in Free Bets. New customers only; minimum deposit £10, minimum odds 1/5, 30x wagering, free bets valid for 7 days. Always confirm the full terms on Bet365’s own site before you deposit.

Markets and odds

Bet365 prices essentially every UK, Irish and international meeting, often earlier than smaller books, and layers on daily price boosts and Bet Builder markets for racing. Ante-post coverage for the Classics and Festivals is the deepest in the market.

Each-way terms

Each-way terms follow the standard UK structure based on field size, and Bet365 is quick to add extra places on the marquee Saturday handicaps and festival races.

Mobile app

The app is fast, stable during peak trading and rarely suspends betting during a race — a common complaint with smaller operators. Streaming is built directly into the racecard.

Payments

Deposits and withdrawals run through debit card, PayPal, Apple Pay and bank transfer, with most verified withdrawals processed within a day or two.

Customer service

Support is available by live chat and email around the clock, with a large enough team that festival-week wait times stay reasonable.

Pros and Cons

What Bet365 gets right:

  • Deep racing markets and early prices
  • Class-leading app with in-play betting and streaming
  • Regular offers for new and existing customers

Where it falls short:

  • May restrict consistently winning accounts
  • Welcome offer carries 30x wagering
