Bet365 rules to check before you lay

If a bookie settles a bet differently to Betfair, one side can be void while the other loses. These are the Bet365 rules we have on record.

  • Tennis: In the event of a match starting but not being completed then all bets will be void. Bet365 also have a ‘Tennis Retirement Guarantee’ which states that if your players opponent retires due to injury you will be paid as a winner. However, the winnings will be in the form of bet credits instead of cash. This guarantee only applies to ungubbed accounts, and only on ATP, WTA, or Grand Slam matches. Qualifying games do not count.
  • Baseball (MLB) head to head: Stand - any pitcher, 5 or 4.5 innings. Includes extra innings. Void on 72 hour suspension
  • Baseball (MLB) double headers: As normal

Questions people ask

Can you matched bet with Bet365?

Yes. You back a bet at Bet365 and lay the same selection at Betfair, so the result does not matter. It works for its bonus bets and its regular promos.

Not for signing up. Australian rules stop bookies offering a bonus or promo code just for opening an account, so be wary of any site that promises one. Once you have an account, Bet365 runs promos for existing customers, and matched betting turns them into cash. Bonusbank members see every current Bet365 promo in the promo database.
