Intro

Here we have one of the most established and reputable bookmakers in the market today, in the form of Betfred. Without a shadow of a doubt, Betfred would be considered to be a powerhouse betting brand by most online bettors. Not only has this brand been in operation for several decades, but it also has some of the most rewarding bonuses that you will find with any other online provider.

This is combined with a selection of 10 different online gambling products too. What more could you possibly ask for with an online betting brand? If you fancy giving the Betfred site a shot, just sign up today. It’s quick, easy, and most importantly – costs you nothing to do.

You may have heard Betfred described as ‘The Bonus King’ thanks to its TV and online advertisements, and having looked into the bonuses available here, it’s hard to disagree. Of course, this all begins with the sign up offers that are on the table for new customers. Betfred has two main welcome offers for its casino and sportsbook, as shown below.

Sportsbook

The very first welcome bonus we’d like to highlight is for sports betting customers. Not only is this offer easy to unlock, but it’s also highly rewarding compared to the initial qualifying wager. Once you’ve signed up, you need to deposit and wager just £10 in exchange for £30 in free bets, which can then be staked on any sport that you like. The only thing you need to be careful of here is that your initial wager must be placed on a market with odds of at least 1/1, and then you have 7 days to use your free bets.

Once you’ve made the most of the sportsbook sign up offer, you can then unlock a range of reload promotions:

• Acca insurance – up to £10 in cashback if one leg of your accumulator loses
• #pickyourpunt – a free £5 on select sports if your ‘pick your punt’ bet loses
• Horse racing free bet – free bet of up to £10 if your selected horse finishes second

Casino

For new casino customers, there is an even larger welcome bonus on the cards. Basically, you must deposit or transfer £10 into your casino balance (must be the first transaction), and once you’ve wagered through this £10 on select games, your account will be credited with 50 free spins. You don’t even need to worry about monitoring how much you’ve spent, as once you hit the £10 threshold, a pop-up will appear on the screen for you to redeem the free spins.

While these free spins are valued at just 1p each, there are absolutely zero wagering conditions, which makes the offer seem that much more appealing. Of course, with the casino being one of Betfred’s main products, there is also a handful of casino reload bonuses to choose from:

• Weekly free spin accumulator – bet at least £10 from Monday-Sunday for a shot at up to 200 free spins
• £10M blackjack – large cash prizes available for designated blackjack hands until the end of 2025

Betfred is often held in high regard for its online casino offerings, yet the sportsbook is equally as impressive as some of the sports betting specialists we see today. Not only are the odds competitive for most of the major sports like horse racing and football, but the market depth is admirable. If we take an average Premier League football game as a prime example, it’s quite common to see more than 200 markets on offer.

Live betting is always a great feature to use for sports betting. The odds can fluctuate rapidly, and there’s always the chance to score odds that just didn’t seem possible before a game started. You can pull up the entire scope of live markets by hitting the in-play button in the top-left of the sportsbook, and wagers can be made with just a couple of clicks.

Betfred is a site with a whole bunch of products on offer, but we will stick to the most popular ones in the interest of sharing the most important information with you.

Thanks to the range of deposit and withdrawal options available at Betfred, members will find it extremely easy to process transactions within their accounts. You can choose to process such transitions through methods like MasterCard, Maestro, PayPal, Visa, Skrill, Neteller, Paysafecard and online bank transfers right now. As you can see, at least one of these methods will appeal to most people, and the minimum per transaction is just £5.

Deposits will always go through to your account immediately after they are processed, yet withdrawals can vary in terms of timescale. If you’re in a rush to get your money, we would recommend shooting for methods like Neteller, Skrill, or PayPal, as these can reach your account in under 48 hours.

Betfred has a fairly decent mobile site for players to access, but it is the mobile apps that this brand has available that really steal the show. Both platforms can be accessed through almost all smartphone devices, as well as tablets. With this said, whether you want to have a quick spin on your favourite slots, make a live sports wager, or enjoy a round of bingo, it’s all possible with Betfred from your mobile.

Mobile App

All of the mobile apps that Betfred has available can be installed on Android and iOS devices. Notice that we said all here, and that is because Betfred has separated its mobile apps according to the product offering. That’s why you will find an app for sports betting, casino play, and ‘games’. All of these apps are highly responsive, and some even provide users with exclusive mobile bonuses.

For a site as large as Betfred, as one might imagine, it is highly secure as well as fully legal. This is confirmed through the valid gambling license that is displayed on the site, and this license has been issued to Betfred by the UK Gambling Commission. An added bonus is that Betfred has multiple links to responsible gambling tools on the site too, which helps players stay ‘safe’ by understanding the signs of problem gambling.

Loyalty and VIP Rewards

The VIP program that Betfred actually has is by invitation only, and the pre-requirements to get into the program are only really realistic for high-rollers. With that said, regular players can accumulate rewards points each time that they spin the reels, play a hand of blackjack, or engage in any kind of online casino gaming with Betfred. Like most other sites, these points will ultimately lead to prizes, mostly in the form of cash rewards.

Design & Usabillity

The Betfred site is super extensive, which can be somewhat daunting for beginners and those that haven’t engaged in too much online betting before. So, while this can prove to be a bit of a speed bump, once you become familiar with the site, it really is exceptional. There are so many features for members to use in order to navigate the site quickly, as well as customise the site into a format that suits their needs and requirements.
