Matched betting is where you place opposing bets on the same race, match, game or event so that you win, regardless of the outcome. OddsMonkey will show you how to use the welcome offers and free bets offered to new and existing customers to maximise your profit. You can learn more in our What Is Matched Betting guide.

Yes, matched betting is 100% legal. Still not sure? Graham Sharpe of William Hill says, “There’s no illegal element. It’s a free bet and you can do what you like.” – The Telegraph

This depends on how much time you spend on matched betting. Many of OddsMonkey’s members are consistently earning up to £1500 every single month, with some of our more advanced members earning much more.

Because you are covering all outcomes by backing and laying your bets, you are effectively eliminating the risks that are associated with traditional betting. The only real risk is human error, such as not checking for the latest odds or entering a wrong bet.

We would recommend setting aside around £100 to get you up and running, but the more you can put in the quicker you can complete the offers.

Not at all, many of our members have never even placed a bet before joining OddsMonkey. We’ve created over 100 step-by-step guides and video tutorials to ensure that you know exactly what you’re doing.

No, it has no affect on your credit score in the same way any other bank transaction would. Some bookmakers will do credit checks when you sign up but it is not an in depth check that’ll affect your credit rating.
