Ladbrokes Sign Up Offer: Place a £10 bet and get £50 in free bets.

I've been through the Ladbrokes sign up offer terms, and it's how the £50 is split that really caught my eye. Your first bet needs to be £10 or more at odds of 1/2 (1.5) or bigger, and you'll get 5 x £10 free bets back whether it wins or loses.

Four can go on any sport, one goes on a football Bet Builder and the last one goes on a horse racing Bet Builder. Here's how to claim it, the bets that won't count and full terms and conditions.

Ladbrokes New Customer Offer

The Ladbrokes new customer offer is open to new customers in the UK and the Republic of Ireland. If you're in Ireland, the offer works the same way in euros, and so you'll bet €5 to get 6 x €5 free bets.

How to Claim the Ladbrokes Sign Up Offer

Claiming the Ladbrokes sign up offer takes six steps, and the two that decide whether you get the free bets are how you deposit and what your first bet is. Below, you'll find our step-by-step guide on how to claim the Ladbrokes sign up offer.

1. Click here to be directed to Ladbrokes' site.

2. Click the 'Join Here' button.

3. Fill out the registration form with the details requested, and complete the checks to verify your account.

4. Within 14 days of signing up, deposit at least £10 with an eligible debit card.

5. Place your first bet with a stake of at least £10 on a sports market at odds of 1/2 (1.5) or bigger, within the same 14 days.

6. Once you've placed your qualifying bet, you'll be credited with 5 x £10 free bets.

Ladbrokes accept PayPal and paysafecard for deposits in general, but a first deposit with either won't qualify for the offer, and neither will Skrill, Neteller or a prepaid card. Ladbrokes' terms also exclude "certain debit cards" without naming them, and so if you're unsure about your card, it's worth checking with Ladbrokes' customer support team before you deposit.

Do You Need a Ladbrokes Promo Code?

No there isn’t a Ladbrokes promo code or bonus code to claim the Bet £10, Get £50 in free bets offer, as the free bets are applied once your first bet qualifies.

What Counts as a Qualifying Bet?

Your qualifying bet is the first bet you place on your Ladbrokes account, and it has to meet every one of the conditions below for the free bets to land.

Bets That Qualify

A bet counts as your qualifying bet if it's your first bet on Ladbrokes, it's placed within 14 days of signing up, and it ticks off the following:

• A stake of £10 or more

• Odds of 1/2 (1.5) or bigger

• Placed on a sports market

• In an accumulator, every selection at 1/2 (1.5) or bigger

• In an each-way bet, a win part of £10 or more

For example, a £10 bet on Liverpool to Win at 6/4 (2.5) would count, and it would return £25 if they win.

However, a £10 acca with Man City to Win at 1/4 (1.25) as one of the legs wouldn't count, even if the other legs take the total odds well past 1/2 (1.5).

Bets That Won't Trigger the Offer

Only your first bet can qualify, and so if your first bet is one of the following, you'll miss out on the free bets.

• A bet on a specials market

• A Tote or Pools bet

• A bet placed with a price boost

• A bet you cash out

• The place part of an each-way bet

• An acca with any leg shorter than 1/2 (1.5)

• A bet with a stake under £10

• Any bet after your first one

Your deposit can also cost you the offer, as a first deposit with PayPal, Skrill, Neteller, Paysafe, a prepaid card or one of the excluded debit cards won't qualify, even if your bet does.

How to Use Your 5 x £10 Ladbrokes Free Bets

The £50 in Ladbrokes free bets is split into 5x £10 free bets, and two of them can only be used on Bet Builders. Each free bet has to be used in full, and so you can't split a £10 free bet into two £5 bets.

£10 Football Bet Builder Free Bet

Your football Bet Builder free bet can go on any football Bet Builder market, which lets you combine several selections from the same match into one bet. Our Bet Builder tips page has the day's Bet Builder picks from our tipsters, and you can use them as a starting point for this free bet.

Below, you'll find an example of how a Bet Builder on Everton v Chelsea could look.

• Chelsea to Win

• Both Teams to Score

• Over 8.5 Corners in the Match

All three selections need to land for the Bet Builder to pay out, and as with every Ladbrokes free bet, the £10 stake won't be included in your returns.

Where You Can't Use Your Ladbrokes Free Bets

There are a few restrictions that apply to all six free bets, and these are the ones that could catch you out. The 7-day expiry is the one most likely to catch you out, as the clock starts as soon as the free bets are credited to your account.

• eSoccer, greyhounds, virtual sports, Tote and Pools are excluded

• Each free bet has to go on a separate market

• They expire 7 days after being credited and won't be reissued

• They can't be cashed out or swapped for cash

• The £10 stake isn't returned, even if the bet is made void

What's the Ladbrokes Offer Really Worth?

The Ladbrokes offer is advertised as £50 in free bets, but as the £10 stake isn't returned on any of them, what you'll get back from a winning free bet is the winnings only.

A £10 free bet on Leeds to beat Man Utd at 2/1 (3.0) would return £20 if Leeds win, which is £10 less than the £30 a £10 cash bet would return.

Where to Find Tips for Your Ladbrokes Free Bets

Our tipsters post football tips every day on the Andy's Bet Club Tips Hub, and our Bet Builder tips cover the day's games if you're looking for somewhere to use your £10 football Bet Builder free bets.

If you'd rather build your own, each game in our Match Centre has team and player stats that you can use to pick your selections.

Ladbrokes Sign Up Offer vs Other Bookmakers

Below, you’ll find how the Ladbrokes sign up offer compares with the Coral, William Hill and Paddy Power sign up offers.

William Hill also have minimum odds of 1/2 (1.5), and you’ll need to bet £10 to get £40 in free bets, which is another strong sign up offer to consider.

In return, the £40 comes as 4 x £10 free bets that can go on any sports market apart from virtual markets, with none of it set aside for Bet Builders. They also expire after seven days, and deposits with PayPal, Paysafecard, Skrill or Neteller won’t qualify, which is the same as Ladbrokes.

Paddy Power are another bookmaker that offer £50 in free bets to their new customers, although you'll have to place a qualifying bet on a selection with minimum odds of 1/1 (2.0).

Their free bets last 30 days, which is more than four times as long as the 7 days Ladbrokes give you, although they can’t be used on full-cover multiples such as a Yankee or Lucky 15.

Coral are also owned by Entain, and their Bet £10, Get £50 offer mirrors Ladbrokes’, with the same £10 qualifying bet at 1/2 (1.5), the same 5 x £10 split and the same 7-day expiry. 

Ladbrokes Offers for Existing Customers

Once you've used your free bets, Ladbrokes have plenty of promotions for existing customers, and we've put the football offers first.

Ladbrokes Acca Insurance

Acca Insurance covers football accas with five or more legs, each at 1/10 (1.1) or bigger, with combined odds of 3/1 (4.0) or bigger.

If just one leg lets you down, you'll get your stake back as a free bet of up to £10, and it applies to your first qualifying acca each day.

Ladbrokes Odds Boost

You'll get one Odds Boost token a day to use on a bet of your choice, and the boosted price covers the first £50 of your stake.

The token expires at 23:59 on the day it's credited, and Ladbrokes also have separate Price Boosts on selected markets.

Ladbrokes 2Up & Win

On selected matches, 2Up & Win pays your bet out as a winner if your team goes two goals ahead, even if they don't go on to win the game.

Ladbrokes 1-2-Free

1-2-Free is Ladbrokes' free-to-play predictor, where you predict the correct scores of selected matches for a share of the prize pot. You can enter once a week, and entries close at the first kick-off of the selected matches.

Ladbrokes Racing Offers

Ladbrokes have Best Odds Guaranteed on UK and Irish horse racing, which pays you out at the starting price if it's bigger than the odds you took. There are also Extra Place Races on selected races, where Ladbrokes pay out on more places than usual on the each-way part of your bet.

Andy's Verdict on the Ladbrokes Sign Up Offer

The Ladbrokes sign up offer is really standing out to me for one reason, and it's the 1/2 (1.5) minimum odds.

Sky Bet, Paddy Power and BoyleSports all need your qualifying bet to be 1/1 (2.0) or bigger.

That means a favourite priced between 1/2 (1.5) and evens counts here, where it wouldn't with any of those three.

I know what you're thinking. Five £10 free bets sound fiddly next to a single £50 free bet.

Another factor I really like here is the Football Bet Builder free bet, as a £10 Bet Builder at 10/1 (11.0) would return £100.

The 7-day expiry is the weak spot for me, as Paddy Power give you 30 days and Sky Bet give you 14. I'd sign up in a week with plenty of football on, so you're not rushing to use all six before they expire.

The deposit rules are where I'd be most careful, as a first deposit with PayPal, Skrill, Neteller, Paysafe, a prepaid card or one of the excluded debit cards rules you out. For a £10 bet at 1/2 (1.5), I feel it's one of the easier welcome offers to qualify for at the moment.

Pros

• ✅ Low minimum odds: 1/2 (1.5), against 1/1 (2.0) at Sky Bet, Paddy Power and BOYLE Sports.

• ✅ No promo code: the free bets are applied once your first bet qualifies.

• ✅ UK and Ireland: customers in the Republic of Ireland get the same offer in euros.

Cons

• ❌ 7-day expiry: Paddy Power give 30 days and Sky Bet give 14.

• ❌ Payment exclusions: PayPal, Skrill, Neteller, Paysafe, prepaid card and certain debit card deposits don't qualify.

• ❌ First bet only: if your first bet doesn't qualify, you can't try again.
