Step 1 - Getting Started

• Proceed to William Hill using the button above and sign up to the site. In the registration form we must use the promo code C30 in order to get the free bets later on.
• Once we have opened our  William Hill account we need to deposit £10 into the account. Using a debit or credit card is essential for this offer. Other deposit methods may make you ineligible for the free bet.
• To make matched betting easier we are going to set the bookmaker websites to use decimal odds before we start. To do this on William Hill you will find the odds format menu just below the main menu to the right of the page.

• We are going to use Decimal.

Go to Step 2

Step 2 - Place your back bet

•  In order to qualify for the free bets we need to place our £10 bet at odds of 1.51 or higher.
•  Use the OddsMatcher below to find a suitable betting opportunity. This will show you the best matches for you to bet on right now. We need to find a bet where the back odds at William Hill are close to the lay odds at Betfair. The OddsMatcher does this job for you.

• Once you have picked your bet head over to William Hill and add the bet to your betting slip, set your stake as £10 and place your bet.

Go to Step 3

Step 3 - Lay your bet

• Now that we have placed our £10 back bet at William Hill we need to lay the bet at Betfair. We need to use the matched betting calculator to calculate our lay stake.
• Enter your back bet stake and odds into the calculator below and then enter the current lay odds. This will show you what you need to lay. The calculator will also show you your liability, this is how much money you need in your Betfair account in order to place the bet.

• At this point the calculator will likely show you are going to make a small loss on your bet. This is expected, the closer the odds are together the smaller the loss will be. We don't need to worry about this small loss though as we are going to make a much larger profit with the free bet.
• Press the pink box on the market at Betfair and then enter your stake and place your bet.

Go to Step 4

Step 4 - Use your free bets

• Once our qualifying bet has been placed at William Hill they will immediately add 3 x £10 free bets to our account. You can place all three £10 free bets on the same bet and then just calculate it as one £30 bet on the calculator.
• Once we have the free bets we can repeat the process from steps 1 and 2 with a few small alterations. We still need to find a bet where the odds are close together but this time we want to look for something with higher odds. Odds above 5 is usually a good mark to aim for when using free bets. The OddsMatcher below will show you some bets that fit the criteria.

 

• Remember though the higher the odds the higher your liability at Betfair will be so if you are starting with a small bank make sure you have enough money in Betfair to cover the lay bet before placing your bets.
• The other change we need to make is on the calculator. We need to set it to Stake Not Returned mode. This will allow us to lock in a profit. Use the calculator below and enter your back odds and lay odds and set the bet type to SNR. If you are happy with the profit shown place your bets at William Hill using your free bets and lay the amount shown on the calculator.

• As you can see on the calculator once we place our free bets and the opposing lay bets at Betfair we will have made a nice profit. The profit will vary depending on what odds you used.
