How the Bet365 welcome bonus works — the fine print

Like any online betting bonus, Bet365’s has some terms and conditions you’ll need to meet:

Bet and Get offer

• You must make a minimum deposit of $10 within 30 days of registering with Bet365 online sportsbook.
• Whether your qualifying bet of $5 wins or loses, you’ll receive $200 in bonus bets.
• You must place the qualifying wager at odds of -500 or greater.
• The bonus bets expire after 90 days of inactivity

While not the biggest Iowa sportsbook bonus you’ll find, this might be the most rewarding. It costs you just $5 to earn $200 in bonus bets. Those bonus bets can be used however you want, and any winnings from there are also yours to do with as you like.

First Bet Safety Net

• You must make a minimum deposit of $10 within 30 days of registering with Bet365 online sportsbook.
• You can make any size wager you wish, on any market, at any odds, and on almost any kind of bet. You just will not receive any more than $1,000 back for your refund.
• The Safety Net will be applied to the first bet you make on the platform.
• If you make a bet that can be part win and part loss (e.g. Asian Line), you will get a refund for any net loss.
• The bonus bets you receive expire after 90 days of inactivity.

Again, this is a great welcome bonus.  The potential amount is similar to other loss refund offers, and in essence, you get two tries to get your first win. If you lose, the bonus bets you receive just need to be wagered once to become eligible for withdrawal.

Bet365 Sportsbook app in Iowa

The Bet365 app is available on Android and iOS devices. It is largely identical to its website counterpart, apart from a few layout adjustments.

Go to Bet365’s homepage via your mobile browser to download the app. Once there, scroll down until you reach a link to view all Bet365 apps, just above the settings. Selecting that link will take you to a page where you can select the download option for the Bet365 Sportsbook Iowa app. Doing that will take you to the correct download location for your operating system, and you can download the app from there.

Navigating the Bet365 app

In terms of stability, the Bet365 online sportsbook app seems smooth. We didn’t encounter any glitches, freezes, bugs or performance issues during our testing. It’s also one of the fastest sports betting apps available, with its loading speeds a product of a simple design.

Under the bottom menu, you’ll find three key sections. At the upper left, there’s an area labeled sports. The “live in-game” button takes you to the live betting lobby, divided by sport. Finally, there’s a handy search bar that helps you find the bet you’re looking for faster.

When you select a bet, the slip will slide up from the bottom of the screen. If you add more wagers, the slip collapses and remains minimized until you call for it. Intuitively enough, the odds for combining your multiple picks into a parlay will appear at the bottom of the screen.

Regular Bet365 Sportsbook promotions

Bet365 online sportsbook Iowa offers a range of rotating promotions for existing customers. Regrettably, the bonus program was devoid of daily odds boosts when we checked. Such boosts have been a staple among Iowa sportsbooks for a while now. Here are some of the recurring deals you may see at Bet365:

• 30% SGP boost: Each day Bet365 allows you to increase the winnings on a specific game’s same-game parlay by 30%. The only rule is your best must have at least three legs and the overall odds have to be +100 or longer.
• Early payouts: Early payouts are one of Bet365’s claims to fame, available for all major leagues plus soccer and a few others. This type of promotion works similarly for a variety of sports — if your team builds up a huge lead, Bet365 will declare your bet a winner, regardless of the outcome. This includes 20-point leads in NBA games, three-goal advantages in NHL matchups and two-goal leads in soccer.
• Multi-sport parlay boosts: Bet365 offers up to 70% boosts on parlays that feature bets from top North American leagues (NFL, NBA, CFL, WNBA, college football, college basketball, MLB, NHL).
• Tennis parlays: Bet365 will add a bonus to your payout if you hit a tennis parlay that involves specific bets.
• No score, no tie: This is an insurance bet that gives you a safety net against scoreless draws in specific soccer games.

Best features of the Bet365 Sportsbook app

• Fast loading speed: Both Bet365’s website and app are ultra-responsive. Impressively enough, the app maintains the same level of consistency for live sports betting during peak hours. Switching between live markets happens smoothly, which is not always the case with other sportsbooks.
• Diverse betting portfolio: Depending on the time of year, Bet365 can offer odds on more than 20 sports, and the sportsbook provides in-depth coverage for most contests, especially tennis and soccer.
• Packed with features: Bet365 is a sportsbook with features to spare. The site provides various tools to benefit both casual players and seasoned pros alike, from early cash-outs to live streaming, parlay builders and same-game parlays.

How could Bet365 Sportsbook improve?

• Lack of daily odds boosts: Bet365 doesn’t have as many odds boost promos as competitor Caesars Sportsbook. However, the one of two it does offer each day is usually of a high quality.
• No loyalty program: While not all sportsbooks offer loyalty programs for existing customers, it can be a definite plus for those that do. At the moment, that does not include Bet365.

Types of bets available on Bet365 Sportsbook app?

Bet365 online sportsbook has wall-to-wall betting options, with all the standard choices available. Here’s a rundown of the types of bets you can place:

• Moneylines: Bet on which side will win the game. You might see the Iowa Hawkeyes at -150 to beat the Michigan State Spartans, who are at +130. Negative odds denote favorites and a lower potential payout if your bet wins. Underdogs are the opposite, meanwhile, with positive odds.
• Point spreads: Bet on a game while taking into account an estimated margin of victory as a handicap. Favorites will have to outperform the spread number for the game, while underdogs receive it as a cushion. For example, if the Golden State Warriors play the Sacramento Kings, Bet365 might set the spread line at Warriors -12.5. If you bet on the Warriors, they would need to win by 13 or more points for you to win your bet. The Kings, meanwhile, would need to win by any score or lose by less than 13 points.
• Totals: Bet on the total score of a game, regardless of which team wins. Bet365 will set a totals line, and you can bet on whether the actual total will be over or under that line.
• Props: Bet on miscellaneous aspects of a game. This can include betting on team or player stats, such as whether a specific NFL player will score a touchdown.
• Futures: Unlike the above bets that focus on individual games, futures take a longer view. Popular options include winners of major championships like the Super Bowl, Stanley Cup, World Series and NBA Finals. Bet365 has a designated tab for futures bets, allowing for easy access.
• Combo bets: Place parlays, teasers and round robins at Bet365. These offer the potential for increased payouts with increased risk. Bet365, like most sportsbooks in Iowa, offers same-game parlays, as well.
• Live bets: This form of betting has gone mainstream in the US betting scene. You bet on games as they are happening. The sportsbook will update the lines and odds based on what’s happening in the game, which means you’ll have a limited window of time to bet at the listed odds.

Can I bet on the University of Iowa Hawkeyes?

For the most part, yes. However, Iowa sports betting law prohibits college player prop bets. So, whether it’s the Iowa State Cyclones or the University of Iowa Hawkeyes (or an out-of-state school), these wagers are off-limits in the state. Otherwise, though, you can bet on in-state Iowa college teams.

Bet365 is also one of the few sportsbooks covering women’s college basketball, so if you want to put a few bucks down on the Iowa women’s team, this may be the place to do it.

For other options, Bet365 tends to offer a solid array of futures. In the NBA, you’ll find customary options like conference/division winners, MVPs, Defensive Player of the Year and Rookie of the Year. The book also gets especially creative with tennis futures:

• Stage of elimination
• Unseeded finalist?
• Wild card to reach the final?
• Player to reach a certain round

How to deposit and cash out on the Bet365 app

How to contact Bet365 customer support

Responsible gambling at Bet365

Bet365, like other Iowa books, has incorporated a set of responsible gambling tools and resources to help users with problem gambling. These include deposit, time and wager limits. You can also take a timeout or self-exclude from the site for a longer period or indefinitely.

Can I bet at Bet365 in person in Iowa?

It’s unclear, but it does not look likely at the moment. Bet365 will be launching its online sportsbook in the state via a partnership with Casino Queen Marquette, and that casino already has a Fubo Sportsbook on its premises.

Will Bet365 be the best sportsbook in Iowa?

While Bet365 has a lot going for it, we would rate it a bit behind DraftKings Iowa and FanDuel Iowa at the moment. Adding daily odds boosts would certainly help. On a positive note, however, Bet365 boasts a deep betting roster and an array of quality features, so it’s definitely worth giving it a look.
