Our Betfair Review 

Betfair is most famous for its Exchange, the largest globally and started back in 2000. But since they introduced the Sportsbook in 2012, it’s gotten better and better. The extensive range of betting markets and bet types for users makes it hugely appealing, especially to punters that like to bet on different sports and varying bet types. This range also extends to in-play. So if you’re watching an event and see a betting opportunity, you can take advantage of it with vast options available for several different sports and markets whilst the event is in-play.

Existing customer offers can be hard to come by with some betting sites, but certainly not Betfair. They provide daily Odds Boosts on marquee events, giving enhanced odds on bets of their choosing. So for Horse Racing fans, you can bet boosted odds on up to three horses every day. Simply add a horse to your bet slip and use the My Odds Boost token to get an odds increase on that horse. Plus, if you do like to bet on horse racing, Betfair are well-known for offering extra places on races, so be sure to look out for those too. Another offer for existing customers is ideal for people who like to bet on multiples, as Betfair runs an offer of if you bet £20 on multiples or bet builders on any given day, they’ll give you a £5 free bet.

The user experience of Betfair is well developed and, therefore, easy to navigate and place your bets. It’s well laid out on desktop with clear headers for sports and markets, making it easy to find what you’re searching for. If you’re using your mobile, we suggest using the App as it’s the same as the mobile internet version, but a little smoother. Adding selections to your bet slip is simple with clear odds buttons, then placing your bets is easy when in your bet slip with singles and multiples options, making it a speedy process.

Betfair Free Bets Offer Review

The £20 in free bets if you bet £5 welcome offer is one of the most generous in the business. Many bookmaker offers are around the £10 mark, so this offering from Betfair is top-notch. When you place a qualifying £5 bet after joining you will receive £20 in free bets.

And it’s as simple as that. Be sure to use the Betfair promo code ZBHC01 when you first join and that your first bet has minimum odds of 1/2. Your rewards are valid for up to 30 days after they have been awarded. Unmatched, unsettled or voided bets will not count towards this promotion.

Betfair Key Sportsbook Features

Betfair Exchange

The Betfair Exchange is a slightly different way to bet to the Sportsbook. You’re not betting against the bookmaker – you are betting against other punters, like yourself. So the way it works is if you want to place a bet on a team to win, that bet has to be matched by someone betting on that same team not to win. So there are two ways to bet on the Exchange, there is a back bet, which is what punters are familiar with, and the other is a lay bet, where you are betting on an outcome not to happen. Therefore, the punters determine the odds, which can often be different from what the Sportsbook offers. Money must be available from the opposite outcome at the equivalent odds for your bet to be matched. So if you want to back a team to win at odds of 2.4, someone must be willing to lay that team to win at odds of 2.4 to match your bet. If there isn’t any money available at your desired odds by the time the event has finished and the market is no longer active, your bet simply won’t get matched, and you’ll get your money returned into your account.

It’s a slightly different betting dynamic to a Sportsbook, but it can be advantageous, especially when betting at larger odds. Do note that Betfair takes a 5% commission of your winnings, which will be deducted from your returns if your bet wins.

Bet Builder and OddsOnThat

Something Betfair have added recently is their Bet Builder tool. This enables you to create the same game multiple. Navigate to the match you wish to bet on, then go to the Bet Builder tab. It offers a list of eligible markets and you can add any selections from those markets that you want to combine into one bet. These selections will be in your bet slip with their cumulative odds, and you can place your bet! All the selections must succeed for this bet to win, just like an accumulator.

OddsOnThat covers similar markets to what you would find in the Bet Builder section, but these are pre-curated in Betfair and are available for single matches or several different matches/events.

Betfair Live Streaming

Being able to watch the event you’ve placed a bet on makes it so much better, which is why Betfair offering the ability to live stream certain events is excellent. They have a variety of sports that provide a live streaming service, including Football, Horse Racing, Tennis, Basketball, Snooker, and more.

500+ Football Markets

The number of markets Betfair supports make for a football punter’s dream. Match result, goals, cards, corners, throw-ins, individual player markets, plus a load more, make your options at Betfair extremely wide-ranging.

Substitution Guarantee

A nice little insurance offer from Betfair is their Substition Guarantee promotion, where punters will receive money back with the bet voided if you’ve bet on a player-specific market and your chosen player is substituted in the first 10 minutes. This applies to all Premier League, Champions League, Europa League (from Group Stage onwards) matches on selected markets

Earn £10 in cash for every friend you refer

Although quite popular in other industries, earning cash or free bets for referring friends is something you rarely see in the sports betting industry, making Betfair’s offer to earn £10 in cash for every time you refer a friend as a new customer is very intriguing. You’ll receive your reward by sharing your personal referral link and when your friend stakes £10 or more on the Sportsbook, Exchange or Casino, you’ll be credit with £10 in cash to your Betfair account.
