Here are some factors that make matched betting a great side hustle:

• You can make hundreds of dollars every week – Our average member makes about $2500 in their first two months.
• Anyone can do it – You don’t need any special knowledge about sports or gambling. You just have to be over 18 and living in Australia or New Zealand.
• It’s risk free – all of our bets are fully hedged so that we are covered on all outcomes.
• It’s tax-free – Gambling winnings aren’t taxed in Aus or NZ.
• You only need a few hours each week – You can commit as much time as you like, but 5-10 hours is more than enough to make a great income.
• You can learn for free – Our free membership includes everything you need to get started.

When compared to other online side hustles, the profits that you can make from matched betting are massive.

Completing online surveys is a very popular way to make a few bucks. Sites like Octopus or Attapoll have hundreds of thousands of members who are willing to spend 15 minutes sharing all of their personal information  filling out a survey for $2-3. They might be able to make $50 per week if they are lucky. With matched betting you can make that in an hour or less.

Some people also set up stores on Etsy or Ebay to try and make some cash. This can work out great if you find the right niche but, unfortunately, most people will be lucky to make back their initial investment. The beauty of matched betting is that you are guaranteed to make money if you follow the steps correctly.

There are also popular offline side hustles such as driving for Uber or Deliveroo. These can work out well if you have your own vehicle, but you might have to work unsociable hours to meet demand. Matched betting can be made to fit around your existing schedule. You can even do it from the car if you do decide to drive for Uber.

Recently there has been a huge rise in the number of people turning social media into a side hustle. If you can build a large audience there are numerous ways that you can monetise it. If this applies to you then there is even more reason to try matched betting. By sharing what you learn with your audience you can make uncapped earnings through the Bonusbank affiliate program.

We’re sure that there are plenty of other side hustles out there, but we have never found one that even comes close to matched betting in terms of potential profits, flexibility, and accessibility. If you are aware of any please let us know in our Discord chat.
