BillyBets Bonuses
Billy Bets Free Bets & Bonus/Promo codes
Sports First Deposit Bonus – 100% Match up to €100
When you make your first deposit at Billy Bets, you’ll receive a small bonus to help you get to know the site without risking too much of your hard-earned cash. That deposit is, for better or worse, very standard and similar to what you’d find at many other betting sites: a 100% match up to €100. This match bonus is all you’re going to get, as no free bets or additional bonuses (as in, a welcome package) will be included.
You don’t need to worry too much about qualifying for the bonus, as the minimum deposit is €20 – the same as the minimum necessary to put down money in the first place. Far more interesting to discuss are the wagering requirements in case you wish to withdraw that bonus, especially since they’ll be slightly different depending on where you live. Players from Finland, Switzerland, and Austria will need to wager their bonus five times, while players from any other country will need to wager it six times.
Either way, the rules for wagering are the same: you can either do it on a single bet with odds of 2.0 or higher, or on a multibet with total odds of 1.15 or more. Keep in mind that, no matter how much you win, only €50 will “count” towards completing the wagering requirement, so make sure to plan out your wagers accordingly.
Weekly Reload Bonus – 50% Match up to €500
Is your welcome bonus all gone now? Well, that’s okay, no need to get too upset over it – after all, Billy Bets will still let you get some bonus cash to bet on through its weekly reload promotion! And although this is Billy’s only reload bonus for sports betting, it’s still a pretty good one and well worth praising.
Once a week, half of your deposit will be added on top of it as bonus cash, letting you get more bang for your buck – up to €500 (which means that while there isn’t a minimum deposit, the maximum amount you can put down without ‘wasting’ any of it is €1,000). The way it works is very similar to the welcome bonus, right down to the wagering requirements. To withdraw this bonus, you’ll need to wager it 8 times on either single bets with odds of at least 2.0 or multi-bets with odds of at least 1.15.
Bore Draw – 100% Refund
Winning (and winning BIG) is obviously the goal at online bookmakers, but we’re willing to bet most gamblers have at least one or two stories of times when they lost real bad, but it was still worth it because they can look back on it and laugh at it. But nobody’s laughing at boring losses. They’re not only frustrating, but thoroughly unsatisfying! The creators of Billy Bets agree, and so, if you lose in a boring way, you’ll get your money back, no questions asked.
To specify, a “bore draw” is a match that ends 0:0. Although not every game here at Billy will be eligible for a “bore draw” refund, those which are will let you easily get your money back should the game end in such a stupid way. All you need to do is contact the site’s support team and they’ll refund you your bet, in cash and not as a bonus. It’d be as if you never made it at all!
Acca Boost – Up to 100%
As you may have noticed when reading the wagering requirements for some of the bonuses above, you need much lower odds when betting on multibets/accumulators than you would when making single bets. The reason is simply that accumulators (or “accas”) are inherently way riskier, as even just a single wrong prediction can invalidate multiple correct ones. And even though the reward is greater in the end, many players prefer not to reach out for it at all.
That’s why Billy Bets are willing to give them a little extra incentive for placing these risky wagers. If you were to win an acca made up of at least 3 different bets, you’ll receive a boost to your winnings – just like that! The basic 3-bet multi will see just a 3% boost, but that percentage will grow with the number of bets: 10% for 6, 20% for 9, 50% for 14, and finally, 100% for 21 or more (though if you manage to win a bet like that you deserve way more than just double your winnings). The only condition here is that each match must carry odds of at least 1.40.
2 Goals Ahead – Early Payout
Sometimes, the match results are a mystery right up until the overtime… and yet other times, it becomes clear very early on who’s going to win, and the rest of the match might as well be dead air. Remember when in 2014 Germany led Brazil by 5 goals within 30 minutes? There was no coming back from that for Brazil, and yet those who wagered on Germany needed to wait an extra hour to get their payout!
Well, not at Billy Bets! Here, you may choose to opt into the “2 Goals Ahead” promo for most matches, which will, as the name suggests, let you pay out as soon as your team is two goals ahead of the opponent. Other sports will have different conditions, such as 20 points ahead for basketball, 3 goals ahead for ice hockey, 17 points ahead for American football, and so on. It’s also worth noting that this promotion is only valid for single bets placed on the 1×2 market – and that, if the opposite team happens to get 2 goals ahead, your wager will be instantly lost even if your team recovers. That’s the risk you’re taking on by opting into this promo!
Casino Welcome Bonus – 100% Match up to €500 + 200 Free Spins
We’ve gone at length about Billy Bets’ sports betting – which makes sense, since that’s what you’re probably the most interested in. However, this site also has a substantial casino section, and we’d be remiss not to talk about at least the welcome bonus that casino players will get. After all, many of you might choose to grab this more generous offering, despite being overall more interested in sports betting.
And it is, indeed, more generous: although the sports betting bonus only gave you a 100% match up to €100, here you’ll receive a 100% match up to €500. This won’t affect regular players who were planning to make the minimum deposit of €20, but many high rollers should find the news pretty welcome. If you fancy yourself a more regular player, though, don’t fret! You’ll still receive a whopping 200 free spins alongside your match bonus!
But just as this offer is more generous, the wagering requirements will be more strict. You’ll need to play through your bonus cash x35 times, and through your free spins winnings x40 times. Furthermore, you’ll only have 10 days to complete the requirements, which will surely make you sweat – especially since you’ll be getting your free spins in batches of 20 over those 10 days!
My impressions of these bonuses are a little mixed, but overall, leaning towards positive. Don’t get me wrong: the welcome bonus (either for sports or casino) isn’t anything special, and I find it very unlikely that it’ll attract any players. However, the reload offer isn’t bad, and the remaining offers are also quite welcome. Pretty much none of them are exclusive to Billy, as similar promotions can be found at many different bookmakers – but that doesn’t make them any less lucrative, doubly so when they might at times be the difference between success and total disappointment.
