Looking for Free Bets and some of the best betting promotions in Ireland? You’re in the right place. NetBet Sport’s online platform allows Irish customers to access a wide range of offers, all designed to add extra value to the thrill of sports betting.

How Betting Promotions Work at NetBet
NetBet makes it extremely easy for users to access and activate our wide range of betting offers. All of them can be found on our exclusive and regularly-updated Promotions page, accompanied by T&Cs which feature the eligibility rules, stake requirements and more.
So whether it is a Bet Builder Offer, a money-back special or an odds boost, everything you need to know before opting in to one of our deals is laid out clearly.
What is a Free Bet?
A Free Bet Ireland is a betting reward administered by a bookmaker such as NetBet, and it means you can place a sports bet without having to use real money. The only caveat is that if the bet comes in, the stake amount is not returned, only the winnings.
Let’s look at an example. Say a customer is awarded a €10 Free Bet to use on the Premier Division match between Shelbourne and Shamrock Rovers, and they use the Free Bet to wager on a Shamrock win at 2/1 (3.00). If Shamrock wins, the customer receives only €20 profit, as it’s €30 minus the €10 stake.

Claiming and using a bet offer on NetBet is very simple. Follow these steps:

Popular Betting Promotions at NetBet Ireland
At NetBet, we offer a diverse range of sports betting offers and sports betting promotions, to ensure all betting styles are covered. The most common types are detailed below.
Welcome Offer
NetBet Ireland’s Welcome Offer is a gem befitting the Emerald Isle, and it follows the Bet & Get format. After setting up an account, depositing, and opting in, it’s time to place a €10 bet with minimum odds of 1.50. So let’s say you wager on Ireland to beat England at Twickenham in the Six Nations at odds of 2.50.
If the bet comes in, you’ll win €25 and be awarded €40 in Free Bets. If the bet loses, you’re still awarded €40 in Free Bets!
The Free Bets are split into four €10 tokens; 1x horse racing, 1x football, 1x Bet Builder and 1x UFC.
Bet Builders & Acca Boosts
NetBet’s Bet Builder promotion allows you to combine multiple markets on one event into a single bet. For example, if the Republic of Ireland football team is playing a Nations League match, you can create a combo bet which features the match result, total goals and a specific goalscorer, such as Evan Ferguson.
Our Acca Boost offer is automatically triggered once enough legs are added to a betslip, with a maximum boost of 50%. Four is the minimum number of legs to activate the offer, and if you were to add four horses from different races at the Dublin Racing Festival, a handy 3% boost would be added to the slip.
Bet Boosts/Odds Boosts
NetBet’s odds boosts are simple but effective. We enhance the price of a selected market, usually one focused on a big match or event such as the Champions League final or Irish Grand National.
Free Bets
Common types of Free Bet Offers at NetBet include:
Bet & Get promotions. A popular example being bet €20 on a football accumulator and get a €10 Free Bet.
Money back a Free Bet if a qualifying wager loses.
Football betting specials like Golazo, where selected outcomes (in this case chosen goalscorers delivering in a match) trigger a reward.
