Free Bets in Ireland

If you live in Ireland and you’re looking for some free bets, then you’re in the right place – on this page we list all of the best free bet offers, bonuses and money back specials specifically for Irish punters.

Whilst most European online bookmakers and betting sites will accept customers in Ireland, not all of them will let Irish customers claim their welcome offer (for reasons known only to themselves). At the same time, some sites have different promotions or terms based on your country of residence.

Below you’re find a list of free bets, as well as summaries of their T&C’s. Some of the betting sites are based in Ireland, but there are also plenty from the UK and further afield. And most importantly, all of the offers we list are from trusted bookies so you can bet without worrying if your money is safe.

Free Bet FAQ

For those of you who are new to betting online we’ve compiled a quick guide to bookies sign up offers that should answer all of your questions you may have:

WHY DO BOOKIES OFFER FREE BETS?

Welcome offers, regardless of their format, all have the same purpose – to incentivise you into signing up with a bookie so you can try their service.

ARE FREE BETS WORTH CLAIMING?

Absolutely. Whilst there are some sub-par bookies with restrictive terms that make their bonus not worth claiming, in the majority of cases there’s plenty of value to get from an introductory free bet. On Irish Betting SItes we’ve done the leg work for you and weeded out the offers that aren’t worth claiming – leaving you with only the best free bets.

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A FREE BET, DEPOSIT BONUS AND ENHANCED ODDS OFFER?

Good question! There are usually three kinds of offer which you’ll come across when registering with a new bookie:

  1. Free Bets – A simple free bet token which you’re given once you’ve met the offers requirements. Usually this involves depositing and placing a bet with your own money, after which it will be matched with a bonus one. Some of the more generous bookmakers will even give you a free bet for more than your qualifying bet, such as a €20 free bet when you bet €5.
  2. Deposit Bonus – Here you receive a bonus, usually based on the value of your deposit (eg: deposit €25 for a €25 bonus). Bonuses are usually withdrawable once you have place a minimum number of bets (known as a ‘turnover requirement’ or ‘wagering requirement’).
  3. Enhanced Odds – With an enhanced odds offer instead of receiving a bonus or free bet, you’ll get a larger than normal payout should your bet win. Sometimes these have a lot of choice, such as “double odds on your first sports bet” whilst other times they’re limited to specific bets. The extra winnings from larger enhanced odds offers tend to be paid out in bonus funds rather than cash.

CAN I CLAIM AN OFFER MORE THAN ONCE?

The short answer is ‘no’ – welcome offers can only be claimed once when you first sign up, and registering a new account in order to claim the bonus again is, by and large, against the terms and conditions of pretty much all bookies.

Many betting sites offer additional promotions to existing customers, but the value tends to be a little lower than the introductory bonus that you can claim when you first sign up.

CAN MULTIPLE PEOPLE AT THE SAME ADDRESS CLAIM THE SAME OFFER?

Here the answer depends on the site. Some bookmakers only allow one account per household, computer and/or internet connection – meaning that even if there are multiple people living at the same address you can’t all sign up for an account. On the other hand, some bookies have no problem with both you and your partner having an account.

The best practice is to check both the terms of the welcome offer and the terms and conditions of the site to see if there are any clauses of this nature. If in doubt, the customer support for the site should be able to tell you their specific policies.
