Two of the site’s popular free football games offer a chance at even bigger prizes!
Update: This article first reported the changes bet365 made in May 2024. The 6 Scores Challenge section below now explains how the game and its prize tiers work today, and bet365 shows the prizes for each round in the game. The Goals Galore section is kept as a record of how that game worked. Our 6 Scores Challenge guide covers the game in more depth.
In May 2024, with the end of the football season approaching, bet365 Sport made adjustments to two of its free football games!
Both the 6 Scores Challenge and the Goals Galore games had a revamp for the last few weeks of that season, with more prizes and bigger rewards.
Of course, you do need to be a bet365 customer to play the two free football games on site. New customers in the United Kingdom can sign up with our bonus code BET247, and our bet365 bonus codes page explains how it works. Claim the bet365 welcome offer.
Under bet365’s United Kingdom terms, checked 4 November 2026, new customers who deposit £5 or more and place qualifying bets to the same value get 300% of that amount in Bet Credits, with the qualifying amount capped at £10, so up to £30 in Bet Credits. Qualifying bets need odds of 1/5 (1.20) or greater and must settle within 30 days. Bet Credits expire after 7 days, PayPal and paysafecard deposits only count once bet365 has verified two forms of ID, and returns exclude the Bet Credits stake. Our bonus code BET247 is optional and does not change the offer amount.
So what changed in 2024, and how does the 6 Scores Challenge work today?
Let’s take a closer look and find out!
Bet365 6 Scores Challenge Free Football Game
What is the 6 Scores Challenge?
The aim of the 6 Scores Challenge is to predict the score of the six selected games for that particular game week.
The score must be 100% accurate for the game to be counted as a winner on your selection.
bet365 chooses the fixtures for each round and adds them to the latest 6 Scores Challenge coupon. The game is then made available for people to make their predictions.
Predictions can be made and edited up until the first game on the coupon kicks off. But once the first game kicks off, the game is locked, and no further entries or edits can be made.
bet365 sets the prizes for each round and shows them in the 6 Scores Challenge section before you play, so the amounts can change from one round to the next.
How To Play the 6 Scores Challenge
It is very easy to play the 6 Scores Challenge free football game at bet365.
- Log in to your bet365 account on bet365 Sport.
- Head to the Football section.
- From the tabs at the top of the page select the Free Games option.
- Select the 6 Scores Challenge by double clicking on the Play for Free button.
- This will open the page which will show you How to Play and also the Prizes available for the current game week. Click the green Play for Free button to move on.
- The 6 Scores Challenge coupon will load up.
- Use the arrow buttons above and below the scores for each of the teams to enter your score predictions for all six matches.
- When completed click the Save Your Predictions button to enter them into the game.
That’s it, your predictions are now entered into the tournament completely free of charge. There’s no deposit or betting requirement to be met. All you need is your bet365 account.
You can load up the page in the same way shown above to edit your predictions until the first game on the coupon kicks off.
What Prizes Can Be Won?
bet365 shows the prizes for each round in the game. The prize tiers work like this:
| Correct scores | Prize |
|---|---|
| 2 | A fixed Bet Credits prize |
| 3 | A larger fixed Bet Credits prize |
| 4 | Share of the four-score cash pool |
| 5 | Share of the five-score cash pool |
| 6 | Share of the jackpot pool |
Each prize shown is the maximum for a single winner. A shared pool is split equally between everyone who reaches that tier, so if only one player gets all six scores right, that player takes the whole jackpot pool. Fixed prizes are paid in full to every winner, and you can win only one prize per round.
Scores are settled on the 90-minute Correct Score result. If a fixture is postponed, it drops out of the round and bet365 amends the prizes, and if three or more fixtures are postponed or void, the round is void. Prizes are credited once the score of the final fixture is known.
Cash prizes are paid to the named account holder, and bet365 may run verification checks before you withdraw. Entry to every round is free, and the full rules are in the bet365 6 Scores Challenge rules.
Goals Galore: How bet365’s Other Free Football Game Worked
What Was the Goals Galore Game?
Goals Galore was a free football game in which players were given one weekend fixture on each weekday, Monday to Friday.
When each fixture was played, a player won a Bet Credits prize if the match had four goals, with a bigger prize for five or more goals.
There was also a separate prize if a player’s fixtures produced 20 or more goals between them.
How Goals Galore Was Played
Players revealed one fixture a day, from 2pm on each weekday.
A player who missed a day could still take part, but had no fixture for that day. That cut their chances of reaching the 20-goal prize and meant no prize from the missed match.
How the Prizes Changed in May 2024
Before the May 2024 update, the game paid a set Bet Credits prize for four goals, a larger one for five or more goals and the biggest for 20 or more goals across a player’s fixtures.
After the update, bet365 set the prize for each of the three outcomes at random each week, and the top prize was raised.
Every Goals Galore prize was paid in bet365 Bet Credits.
