Deposit Restrictions

Several betting offers have deposit restrictions on certain payment methods, which are often e-wallets such as Skrill, Neteller, and prepaid cards like Paysafecard. You will need to deposit funds using a bank transfer, or debit/credit card (if possible) to claim these betting offers.

Minimum Deposit Amount, Qualifying Odds & Wagering Requirements

You will need to deposit a minimum amount on your first deposit to claim most betting offers. And, place a bet at minimum odds to claim some free bet offers. The wagering requirements are how much you need to wager the amount to unlock the funds for withdrawal. You will usually have to wager the set amount of money in a set amount of time which varies from 7-30 days.

Take Betway's ₹2500 match deposit betting offer for example:

1. Deposit a minimum of ₹200 using Skrill, Neteller, Bank Transfer or a Visa Card.
2. Receive a 100% matched deposit up to ₹2500
3. Wager the bonus at minimum qualifying odds of 1.75 by 3 times to unlock funds for withdrawal

Free Bets Explained

The free bet bonus is one of the most popular betting offers used by betting sites. Free bets usually come in two forms, either a risk-free bonus or a free bet which is given after you deposit a set amount, or place a certain bet.

Matched Deposit Free Bets

The most common free bet betting offer for players from India. Simply deposit a set amount on your first deposit to receive free bets. The Betway free bet matched deposit bonus above is a perfect example.

Risk-Free Free Bets

A risk-free free bet is a betting offer that usually covers your first bet up to a set amount. Risk-free bets are often reserved for new customers that are signing up for a betting site.

For example, Unibet has a risk free bet of up to 2500 rupees if your first bet of 2500 rupees loses. Now let's take a look at the terms and conditions of the free bet.

To start Unibet shows the offer in Euros (25 euros) but the free bet bonus funds will be converted into the player's desired currency (Indian Rupees). It has to be your first sports bet, and your stake will be refunded up to 2500 rupees if it loses.

But, you cannot withdraw your stake or funds until you have wagered the bonus 3 times. For example, if your first bet of 2500 rupees loses, you will get the ₹2500 bonus straight back.

But, you will need to place three ₹2500 bets with odds of 1.4 or higher to withdraw any money. And, it has to be done within 35 days.

First Bet Free Bet Offers

A first bet free bet offer is a bonus that is activated by your first qualifying bet, but they are not so common in India. In Europe, you will see many offers such as bet £10 get £10, or bet £10 get £30 for example.

No Deposit Free Bets

A rare free bet bonus, but a fantastic offer that you should take advantage of if you see. A no deposit free bet is exactly what it says, you can get a free bet for just registering without needing to deposit any real money.

No deposit free bets are often small in value, but give players a chance to try a sportsbook or online casino for free.
