There is no public oddsmatcher for Skybet, so you'll need to find your own event following the steps below.

We assume you've already gone through the matched betting guide before starting this matched bet.

1. Register with Skybet

   Click here to be taken to the promo page and register a new account.

   Deposit £5.00 in your account. Leave this browser window open.

   This is the amount required for your first (or qualifying) bet     which is needed to unlock the free £30.00 bet (next step).
   Select "View odds as decimals" if you haven't already.

2. Find a bet

   Ideally you want to find a sporting event (preferably football) which has close odds on both Skybet (the bet to back) and Smarkets (the lay bet). Stick to popular markets, such as Win-Draw-Win or Half-time Result.

   Look on Skybet first then find the equivalent lay bet on Smarkets.

   For this free bet offer, Skybet's terms state you must pick odds of 2.0 or greater. It's better to choose a bet with low odds for this step, as close as possible to 2.0 and no higher than 3.0.

   Finally, choose an event that's going to happen within the next 48 hours to save you waiting around later. But be careful about picking an event which is starting within 4 hours because odds will be fluctuating more, making things a bit trickier.

3. Enter the odds

   Once you've found a suitable match, submit the "Back odds" (from Skybet) and the "Lay odds" (from Smarkets) below. They must be decimals (eg. 3.50). The tool will then automatically do the calculations for you and update the next steps.
