No deposit bonuses: what they are and the terms to check

No deposit offers listed with their full terms, and why they usually come with strict conditions.

A no deposit bonus is credited without you funding the account. They are rare in sports betting and usually come with strict terms.

Terms to check before you opt in

TermWhat it meansWhy it matters
Wagering requirementHow many times the bonus (or bonus plus deposit) must be staked before winnings can be withdrawn.A higher number means more betting before you can cash out.
Minimum oddsThe lowest odds a bet must have to count towards wagering.Bets below this do not reduce what you still have to wager.
ExpiryThe time you have to use the bonus and meet the wagering.Unmet wagering at expiry usually means the bonus and its winnings are removed.
Stake returned or notWhether a winning free bet pays back the free bet stake or only the profit.Most free bets pay only the profit, which lowers their real value.
Excluded payment methodsDeposit methods that do not qualify for the offer.Depositing with an excluded method can make you ineligible.
Maximum win or withdrawalA cap on what can be withdrawn from bonus winnings.Winnings above the cap are removed.

Warning signs in a bonus

  • The full terms are hard to find, or only appear after you deposit.
  • Wagering applies to the deposit as well as the bonus.
  • Minimum odds are high enough to push you into riskier bets.
  • A short expiry makes the wagering unrealistic.
  • A maximum withdrawal cap is hidden deep in the general terms.
