UK Sign-Up Betting Offers Index: every offer, verified monthly

Most “best betting offers” lists are affiliate shopfronts: the order is set by commission, dead offers linger for months, and the quoted values are headline free-bet amounts rather than what you actually bank. This index is the opposite. Each month I re-read every bookmaker's current terms, correct anything that's drifted, retire anything that's gone, and publish the diff. The numbers below are estimated locked-in profit after the qualifying bet, assuming you lay everything with the free calculator.

The index (July 2026)

Sorted by estimated profit. Every row links to a free step-by-step walkthrough of that exact offer — the guide is where the current verified terms (minimum odds, expiry, token restrictions) live.

The two exchange welcome offers — Matchbook (£30) and Smarkets (£12) — sit outside the table because you'll open those accounts anyway to do the laying. Reload offers (the ongoing weekly stuff) live on the full offers list.

What changed in July 2026

From the July 2026 audit of every bookmaker's live terms (completed 27 July). This was a heavy month — thirteen offers had drifted, and most of them had got worse:

• Tote — halved. Was Bet £10 Get £40 with code B10G40; now Bet £5 Get £20 with no code needed, and the 2 × £5 Bet Builder tokens are gone entirely. Est. profit £10 → £7.
• Dabble — the Bet £5 Get £20 + 2 odds boosts promotion (code B5G20) was a World Cup special and has ended. Back to Bet £10 Get £10, code B10G10. Est. profit £15 → £7.
• Paddy Power — free bets cut from £40 to £30, and registration now requires promo code YSKAST. Cash Out on the qualifier voids the offer. Est. profit £30 → £22.
• Bet365 — the good news this month. Bet Credits are now 3× your qualifying stake up to £30, so a £10 qualifier unlocks the full £30. We previously described a 1:1 match requiring a £30 stake. Min deposit £5, and the first deposit must be a UK debit card or Trustly.
• LeoVegas — the 3 × £10 free bets are now Bet Builder-only at min odds 4.0, so they can't be laid as singles. Est. profit £24 → £13, and reclassified as intermediate.
• BetVictor — the £30 arrives as five restricted tokens (two accas, two Bet Builders and a Lucky Dip), not two £10 instalments as we previously described. Opt-in via the Offers tab is mandatory. Est. profit £20 → £13.
• talkSPORT BET — stake-match cap cut from £40 to £30 and the minimum stake from £20 to £10, so the four tokens are now £7.50 each. Est. profit £28 → £20.
• Midnite — minimum deposit up from £5 to £10, and the four £5 tokens turn out to need 3-leg Bet Builders at 4.0+ and a 4-leg acca at 5.0+, all pre-match. Est. profit £18 → £14.
• BoyleSports — the £40 is credited as one £40 free bet, not 4 × £10 tokens. Same value, one back/lay pair instead of four (but a bigger lay liability).
• Grosvenor — minimum odds on the £10 first bet are evens (2.0), not “no minimum” as we and most comparison sites had it. Deposit exclusions are narrower than we said: only PayPal and Paysafe.

Three reload offers also changed and are corrected on the full offers list: Sky Bet Club (the weekly reward is chooseable, and a £5 free bet is usually available — better than we rated it), Paddy Power Acca Insurance (refund cap slashed from £50 to £10 a day, 4+ folds instead of 5+) and Ladbrokes 2Up & Win (you must bet through the dedicated 2Up market — a standard match-result bet does not qualify).

Earlier audits, for the record: in June, Betfair Sportsbook's welcome offer rose from £30 to £50, Betfred's acca tokens moved to 4+ selections, and talkSPORT BET, BetGoodwin and Tote joined the index. In May, 17 offers had drifted from their advertised terms and the Betfair Free Bet Club was discontinued and retired. If you did your sign-ups from a list older than a month or two, it's worth re-checking terms before you place anything.

How the numbers work

“Est. profit” is what you lock in after the qualifying bet's small loss, assuming you convert free bets at a realistic 75–80% of face value by laying at the exchange (stake-not-returned free bets never convert at 100%). Restricted tokens — acca-only or Bet Builder-only free bets like Betway's and Unibet's — convert lower, which is why a £40 headline can rank below a £30 one. The per-offer maths is worked through in each guide, and the general technique is in the step-by-step first bet guide.

If you're brand new, don't start at the top of the table — the biggest offers have the fiddliest terms. Start with Coral or Ladbrokes, then work up.
