Bet365 World Cup 2026 Betting Offers
The biggest tournament in international football has undergone a revamp ahead of this summer’s edition as World Cup 2026 will see 48 nations compete in an expanded format.
For the first time, the competition takes place across three countries – the USA, Mexico and Canada.
The first of the 108 games takes place on June 11 at the Estadio Azteca in Mexico City, while the final will be held at the MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, on July 19.
World Cup 2026 is expected to be the biggest betting event in sports history and there should be a number of offers for punters to take advantage of from bet365, one of the giants of the bookmaking industry.
Bet365 Offers During World Cup Tournaments
Bet365 currently offer a sign-up bonus and they are likely to launch a World Cup 2026 specific variation for new customers.
There will be further offers for existing bet365 customers and potentially some based on geographic locations. For example, customers based in the UK and Ireland would get enhanced prices or specific markets for games involving England and Scotland, as well as the Republic of Ireland and Wales, if they qualify.
Bet Credits and Free Bet Promotions
Bet365’s current sign-up offer gives new customers £30 in free bet credits after placing a £10 qualifying bet.
With any bet placed with deposited money, if the bet wins then the stake is returned but that is not the case with bet credits.
Any free bets awarded during World Cup 2026 may have a short expiry period, or may only be available to use on one specific game.
Any winnings can be withdrawn via the ‘Bank’ section in the Account section.
Accumulator-Related Promotions
Bet365 currently offers an accumulator boost where the price is enhanced in 2.5% increments based on the number of selections – if two match result bets are put together in a double the price of the multiple is boosted by 2.5% and if five legs are selected the price is boosted by 10%.
This offer is likely to be promoted more during the World Cup 2026 group stages when more matches take place on each day.
There may also be cases where accumulator insurances are offered, such as money back if one leg on a multiple lets the bet down.
Bet builders or multiples combining player props may be excluded from such promotions.
Odds Boosts and Enhanced Prices
Bet365 will offer various odds boosts during World Cup 2026, particularly ones focused on countries who are expected to challenge for the trophy and big name players.
Some of these odds boosts will have maximum stake rules, usually £10 or £20, and users may be unable to use free bet tokens on these offers.
It is also worth pointing out that just because a price has been enhanced it doesn’t necessarily mean it is a good bet – any selection should be researched before a stake is placed, even if a price appears to offer value.
Early Payout-Style Offers
Bet365 offer early payouts if a team goes two goals up and they are likely to continue with that policy during World Cup 2026. Not all matches will qualify, but all of the World Cup 2026 ones probably will.
If a match is decided after extra-time or penalties, the final result is considered a draw by bookmakers, so if you have picked a team to win and they progress on penalties that selection would be a losing bet.
