What is Matched Betting?
Matched betting is a technique used to profit from free bet promotions offered by bookmakers. It works by placing a bet at a bookmaker and then laying the same outcome at a betting exchange.
How it works:
- Place a "back" bet at a bookmaker
- Place a "lay" bet at an exchange to cover all outcomes
- Small qualifying loss on the first bet
- Use the free bet to make guaranteed profit
- Repeat with different bookmaker offers
Note: Matched betting is legal but check your local regulations. Some bookmakers may restrict accounts that only use promotions.
