Dan's overview
Optional·3 min read
LiveScore Bet's welcome bonus is worth around £18 on average. You deposit £10 into LiveScore Bet, place one qualifying bet (costs roughly 25p in qualifying loss), and they give you 2 × £10 standard free bets, which we lock in on the exchange for guaranteed cash, plus 2 × £5 bet builder free bets that you place yourself. That average already blends the guaranteed cash with the typical value of the bet builders.
You need £10 for LiveScore Bet and your exchange balance should already be funded from previous offers. If you need to top up, you'll want about £90 in your exchange to comfortably cover the lay bets. None of this is spent. It all moves between accounts to cover both sides.
It takes about 30 minutes of actual work. One thing to note: the free bets arrive after your qualifying bet settles (allow up to 48 hours), so there's a short wait between steps 2 and 3.
Start here
Get Smarkets ready
Every matched betting offer uses the Smarkets betting exchange to lock in your profit. Set it up once and you're ready for all of them.
- 1.Create a free Smarkets account
- 2.Deposit £90 – that covers the lay bets for this offer
When you place a bet on LiveScore Bet, you also place an opposite bet on Smarkets to cancel it out. If LiveScore Bet's bet wins, Smarkets needs to pay the difference, and the £90 is there to cover that worst case.
You won't lose this money. It just needs to be in your Smarkets account while the bet settles. After the match, the unused balance is yours again.
