About the bet365 bonus code offers
Both the bet insurance offer and the bet and get are solid welcome offers for new customers. Each one allows you to take advantage of different parts of the betting process. If you claim the bet insurance offer, you’ll recoup the value of your loss if you lose. With the bet and get, you’ll earn bonus bets regardless of the status of your qualifying wager.
$1K First Bet Safety Net
Since this is a bet insurance offer, you’ll only earn bonus bets if you lose. Thus, this is a solid promotion for players looking to take a shot on an underdog. If you win, your profit will be substantial and if you lose you’ll recover the value of your cash stake as bonus bets.
Say you bet $175 in cash on the Pacers moneyline (+350) in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals. If the Pacers won, you’d collect $612.50 in profit, plus you’d keep your original cash stake. Naturally, you would only earn bonus bets if you lost. In that event, you’d get $175 in bonus bets.
Bet $5 Get $150 in Bonus Bets
Different situation with this promotion as you’ll earn bonus bets no matter how the qualifying wager settles. As long as you place a cash bet of at least $5 or more, you’ll collect when it settles.
In keeping with the example above, if you put down a $10 cash bet on the Pacers to cover the +10 spread (-110) you could win $9.09 in profit if it hits. If it wins, you’d collect the profit, keep the cash stake AND earn the bonus bets. Even if you lost, you’d get the bonus bets.
