Bet365 Mobile Sport Apps

The Bet365 bonus code can be used in the sign up process when accessing bet365.com via a mobile device or using an app. As well as navigating to the website directly, mobile apps are available for every major platform and these are linked to below. Negative reviews highlight that bugs exist across the native apps and that there are issues relating to reliability and performance. When I tried to use the Bet365 android app, location services had to be enabled, presumably to verify the territory of the player and to comply with local laws and app store policies. Having location services enabled will drain the battery more quickly as well as raising privacy concerns. App quality will improve over time as updates are released but in my opinion access via the devices built-in browser is the most reliable and efficient option until problems can be resolved.

These answers are correct to the best of our knowledge at the time of writing. Check direct with Bet365 for the latest T&Cs. Bet365’s customer support will be able to offer the most up-to-date information.

At the time I signed up, I made a deposit using a debit card, this incurred no charge and the funds appeared instantly. A great variety of other deposit methods were available but it's best to check direct with Bet365 for their most up-to-date list of supported methods. Be sure to check for associated fees, processing times, minimum deposits and maximum deposit limits.

When I came to make a withdrawal I used the same debit card that I had signed up with and this incurred no charge. The funds appeared in my account the next day but I understand that it could have taken up to 5 days. The full list of withdrawal methods was available from the Bet365 help page. The fees, processing times, minimum withdrawals and maximum withdrawals varied a lot from method to method.

Only bookmakers themselves can know all their reasons but the following in my opinion outlines the most likely rationale:

• To incentivise signing up - The first bet placed with Bet365 always takes the longest from beginning to end. The registration process and learning the new interface takes time, so an incentive is used to help overcome this initial hurdle.
• To reward brand loyalty - Loyalty promotions that span events are sometimes available to encourage users to stay on Bet365 between events instead of, for example, going to a competitor at the end of a horse race.
• To advertise a product - In a crowded marketplace, attention grabbing promotions and codes can help a brand stand out. This becomes increasingly important at popular events such as the Cheltenham Festival and the football World Cup, often resulting in enhanced offers as bookmakers vie for attention.

The terms and conditions of a promotion may also give insight into the bookmakers motivations e.g. temporary access to an exclusive new player area for poker or bingo players might suggest they are trying to provide a gentle introduction to the interface and games. Always read the terms and conditions. 18+.

The Cash Out feature allows you control over your bets by giving you the option to take a return before an event is over.

You can fully or partially cash out your bet. Partially cashing allows you to leave a portion of the stake to run until the end of the event. Bet365 also offer the option to set up an Auto Cash Out. This allows you to set a pre-determined limit where your bet will automatically Cash Out.

• A £10 treble placed on three football teams at odds of 3/1, 5/2 and 4/1 has the potential to return £700 if all three teams win.
• 2 of your teams win their games, and with ten minutes left to play on the third game your team are winning 1-0, and a cash out value of £550 is offered.
• If you cash out for £550 and your selection goes on to draw then your payout will be unaffected. If you had not cashed out then your bet would have lost. However if the score remains 1-0 and you had not cashed out your bet you could potentially have won a further £150.

• As in the example above, a £10 treble placed on three football teams at odds of 3/1, 5/2 and 4/1 has the potential to return £700 if all three teams win.
• 2 of your teams win their games, and with ten minutes left to play on the third game your team are winning 1-0, and a cash out value of £550 is offered.
• You could opt to cash out a portion of your Cash Out offer and leave the rest to run.
• If you cash out 50% then you take a payment of £275 and leave £5 to run on the bet. If your selection goes on to draw, your payout will be unaffected, but you will lose the remaining portion of the bet, giving you a profit of £265. However if the score remains 1-0 you would win a further £350, giving you a total return of £625.

• With the example above you could set a rule by clicking on the bet in the My Bets section of your account. If you enter a chosen cash out value of £500 then as soon as the Cash Out value of your bet reaches £500 the bet will automatically cash out, regardless of whether you are online.
• Using this option allows you to avoid potential losses when away from the screen.

The Bet365 Bet Builder feature allows you to combine popular betting markets and calculate the odds to create your own, unique, bet on any football match.

Create a bet from a chosen fixture by selecting "Add Selection" and then choosing a market and the options within that market. Repeat this up to 6 times and the odds will update automatically as options are added. Bet Builder bets can be used with the Cash Out feature, but only pre-match.

• You can Build Your Bet in any soccer match. For example, for a Manchester United v Watford Premier League game you may select Manchester United to Win in the Match Result market, Full Time Score to be 2-1, Most Goals to be scored in the 2nd Half and Man Utd to score in both halves in the Team Special market.
• These 4 market selections could return odds of 25/1.
• Giving you a potential return of £260 on a £10 stake.
