$250 Risk-free Bet
As a new player, Betway offers you a risk-free bet of up to $250. This is on the low end compared to the industry standard, and is considerably less than what Betway was offering customers earlier in its U.S. tenure. It's also awarded only if your initial bet loses, which makes it an inferior offer to a straight deposit match (though there's no rollover requirement here).Players will only earn a risk-free bet in the amount of their initial wager, from a minimum of $10 to a maximum of $250. The initial wager must be made within seven days of account activation, and must carry odds of at least -300 (1.33). The risk-free bet will be awarded within 24 hours of the initial bet settlement, and must be used within seven days of being awarded.
Ongoing Promos, Parlays, and Odds Boosts
Not only has Betway disappointed with its most recent signup offer, it doesn't offer that many promo opportunities to its U.S. customer base.The most notable promo centers around parlay boosts, in which players can select multiple games on one betting card and receive an increase in the odds and payout with an escalator based on the number of games selected. For example, a 3-4 leg NFL parlay provides 5% extra winnings, while a 14-20 leg parlay (which we do not recommend) comes with an additional 25% in winnings if the player is successful.
This promo boost is also provided for soccer; the escalator here is higher, up to a maximum of 40% in profit increase for a successful 15-20 leg parlay.
Betway also provides competitive odds on its Same Game Parlay offering (basketball and soccer only), but every sports betting site has SGP options now, so this isn't unique.
Betway Review
Betway has earned plenty of fans worldwide – and it's beginning to make its mark in the fastest-emerging sports betting market on the planet.While this book won’t wow you with its design, you won’t find many apps more straightforward to navigate – or with the sheer volume of sports markets Betway offers. And while the signup bonus and lack of exciting promo offers might turn casual players away, this remains a strong global sports betting brand that deserves to be mentioned among the second-tier betting options in the United States.
