On almost all online gambling websites, you will notice that the bookmakers are in some way or another, offering some promotions, to entice you punters to place a bet with them. And these promotions mostly consist of free bets.

Free bets simply means that you will be given an amount, in credits mostly, to place a bet. You will then need to use this free money to place a bet. This is quite a good offer, if lets say you make a deposit of £25, and place a bet of £25. You will then receive an equivilent amount of £25 free bet.

In a case whereby your bet wins, you will have an extra £25 free bet to roll your account balance. It is definitely a great way for you to start off your gambling account.

Just another quick example with Bet365. In their promotional advertisements, it says to open an account, and claim your 100% Deposit Bonus. In order to qualify for your bonus, make a deposit of $20* or more and you will be entitled to a 100% bonus on your qualifying deposit up to a maximum of $200*.

Therefore, make a deposit of $20* to $200*,
and get a 100% match to that amount. Simple as that.

The * that is beside the amount are currency equivalents. Meaning if you make a £100 deposit, you will get a 100% free bet of £100.

Remember though, these free bets are only for new customers registering. Some free bets promotions are valid only through links and banners on sites such as freebetoffer.com.
