The bet365 Goals Giveaway was a free weekly football game for bet365 Sport customers. Players were given randomly drawn weekend fixtures and won Bet Credits when those matches produced plenty of goals.
No football knowledge was needed, because the fixtures were drawn at random.
Here is how the game was played, how entries won Bet Credits and the answers to the questions readers asked about it.
How the bet365 Goals Giveaway Was Played
Taking part was simple. From 2pm on each weekday, players followed these steps:
- Players logged in to their bet365 Sport account at 2pm or later.
- They went to the Football section and opened the Free Games tab under the title.
- They chose Goals Giveaway from the list of free games.
- A button revealed a random fixture from the following weekend’s matches.
- That fixture was added to the player’s coupon and entered into the game automatically.
A new fixture could be revealed from 2pm on each weekday, Monday to Friday, during the football season.
Only Saturday and Sunday matches were part of the game; midweek fixtures did not count.
A player who missed the 2pm reveal could still claim that day’s fixture up until 2pm the following day.
Missing a day altogether meant no fixture for that day, but part-completed coupons were still entered and could still win Bet Credits.
All entries were locked before the first Saturday kick-off.
How Goals Giveaway Entries Won Bet Credits
Prizes depended on the number of goals scored in each of a player’s fixtures:
- A fixture with four goals won a Bet Credits prize.
- A fixture with five or more goals won a larger Bet Credits prize. A match with five or more goals paid the larger prize only.
There was also a bonus Bet Credits prize when all of a player’s fixtures produced 20 or more goals between them. That is why entering all five fixtures each week gave the best chance of reaching the bonus.
