The Bet365 Bet £50 Get £50 is one of, if not the best, Matched Betting offers out there. You can register to use our premium tools for free here.
What You Need:

- An exchange account with £700 or more balance available (for maximum profit, you might not need the full amount).
If you haven’t got an exchange account, there is a choice of 4 here.
Make sure you have got the email from Bet365 or it appears on your account before doing this offer! You don’t have to Opt In but you have to have got a message from Bet365. Usually, unless you’re restricted it’s available to everyone.
Step 1, Find Your Trigger Bet:
First, we need to place a £50 bet on the game before it starts. Any market on Manchester City v Lyon will do, but we want to find the best match possible.
To do this, use the Profit Rush Price Matcher. Tick the boxes as they appear in the photo below:
We also have the added bonus of 2 Up landing here too along with there being no minimum odds, and go for that option if you want. Manchester City are one of the closest matches in the match odds market and with the added bonus of 2 Up, we are going to select this option.
Step 1 Action: We place a £50 bet on Manchester City to win with Bet365 at 1.22.
Step 2, Now We Calculate & Place The Lay Bet:
Now that we have placed our £50 trigger bet with Bet365, we need to lay that bet back on an exchange. The trigger bet has already locked in our £50 free bet later, but we now have to lay off the trigger bet, so we have very little risk.
We already know what we have to lay on the exchange, but we need to find the stake.
To do this we can use the Profit Rush Bet Calculator. The Manchester City win is 1.27 to lay with Betfair, so we just have to put our information into the Calculator. We then see this screen:
As you can see, the correct stake to lay on Betfair is £48.80. This only results in a -£2.18 set up cost and with a free £50 bet to come later this is ideal.
Profit Rush users can directly place the correct lay bet through the Bet Calculator if you have your Betfair account linked. If you aren’t using integration, log into your Betfair account and lay Manchester City at 1.27. The lay button is on the right-hand side of the market.
Step 2 Action: Place the lay bet of £48.80 on Manchester City on Betfair at 1.27.
Pre-Match Steps COMPLETE!
That’s all you need to do pre-match. The above example has cost us £2.18 however remember we have our £50 free bet to come in-play…
Step 3, Place Your £50 Bet In-Play:
You can use the Profit Rush Price Matcher again for this. However, if you have Bet365 and an exchange open in two windows you can do it manually.
The odds will change in-play, so we have to get our business done quickly. However, we highly recommend waiting and placing your bets at Half-Time when the odds won’t move as much.
For this we’re going to give you an example, let’s say it’s 0-0 at half-time but Manchester City have been on top. You should check the goal markets for liquidity, however we’re going to try stick to the match odds market for the example. Let’s say Lyon have drifted to 15.0 from a starting price of 12.0 with Bet365. While they’re trading 16.5 to lay on Betfair. That will be our target match to profit from.
Step 3 Action: We place a £50 bet with Bet365 on Lyon at 15.0 at Half-Time.
Step 4, Time To Lock in a Profit:
OK, so now we’ve placed our £50 free bet in-play – we need to lock in a profit.
At the moment, we lose £2.18 if Lyon fail to win, and we need to lock in profit. To do this we use the Profit Rush Bet Calculator again.
We use the calculator just as in Step 2, however this time we make sure that FREE BET (SNR) is selected in the Bet Type drop-down menu. This is very important, otherwise, your figures will be wrong.
We will then get this screen:
As you can see, the Profit Rush Bet Calculator has told us to lay Lyon for £42.48 on Betfair, which means our liability will be £658.44. But remember we have £700 profit if they win with Bet365. The amount you need for this example is quite high, however this is an unusual game with City so short in the market. If you don’t have that much in your Betfair account, simply look for another match lower in price.
After you have placed your lay bet you have now locked in a profit of £41.56. However, remember to set up our trigger bet it cost us £2.18 so take that away.
That leaves us with a profit of £39.38. Not bad for ten minutes work.
