Results
A small qualifying loss is normal — this is the cost of unlocking the free bet. You make your profit when you use the free bet in the next step.
How to use this calculator
Qualifying bet: Your first bet to unlock the free bet. Choose odds where back and lay prices are close together to minimise your qualifying loss.
Free Bet (SNR): Stake Not Returned — the most common type. If your free bet wins, you get the winnings but not the original stake back. Use higher odds (4.0-6.0) for best profit extraction.
Free Bet (SR): Stake Returned — less common but more valuable. If your free bet wins, you get the winnings AND the stake. Use odds similar to qualifying bets.
