How to matched bet with ReadyBet

  1. Open an accountSign up with ReadyBet and a Betfair account, and read the terms of any offer you want to use.
  2. Place the qualifying betBack a selection at ReadyBet and lay the same selection at Betfair, so you lose only a few cents whatever happens.
  3. Convert the bonus betWhen the bonus bet arrives, back and lay again. You keep roughly 70 to 80 percent of it as cash, whichever way the result goes.
Example: a $50 bonus bet backed at 5.00 and laid at 5.20, with 5% commission +$36.89

Can you matched bet with ReadyBet?

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