Second only to the FIFA World Cup, the UEFA European Championship is the biggest and most important international football competition in Europe.

The 2024 tournament will be the 17th edition and it represents a great chance to bag yourself some Euro 2024 betting offers and plenty of free bets.

Also known as Euro 2024, the competition is set to be spectacular. England are in with a chance of winning, but hosts Germany will have plenty to say about that.

Expect there to be plenty of offers throughout the competition, not just on England matches, but all the big games. And here at TalkSPORT, we will bring you the best of them. 

My top UK bookmakers for Euros betting

Euro 2024 betting offer overview

There is a stack of betting offers available from the bookmakers for Euro 2024. Here I’ve covered my favourite ones in more detail.  

1. Betfred – Bet £10 get £50 in bonuses

• Offer amount: £50
• Offer type: Free bets and free spins
• Min stake: £10
• Min odds: Even money (2.0)

Sign up using the bonus code Welcome50 for Betfred’s great Euro 2024 new customers offer. The Betfred offer is broken down into £20 in free bets to use in-play, and £20 to be used on an acca. The in-play free bet can be used on any Euro 2024 match.

The £20 acca free bet is best to be used in the group stage of the competition when more matches are being played. You have seven days to complete the offers. Don’t forget the free spins as well.

2. bet365 – Bet £10 and get £30 in free bets

• Offer amount: £30
• Offer type: Bet credits
• Min stake: £5
• Min odds: 1/5 (1.20)

bet365 is one of the most established betting sites on the World Wide Web. To get the maximum of £30 in bet credits, you will need to deposit and wager £10 at odds of 1/5 or greater. Your bet credits are essentially free bets by a different name.

They can be used on individual matches or outright Euro 2024 tournament bets. You must claim your offer within 30 days of opening your account. 

3. TalkSPORT BET – Bet £10 and get £30

• Offer amount: £30
• Offer type: 3x £10 free bets
• Min stake: £10
• Min odds: Even money (2.0)

On completion of your qualifying bet of £10, you will first receive a £10 Football Builder free bet, which can be used on any match at Euro 2024. You will also receive a £10 free bet to use on a 4+ selection acca bet, which can be used on any sport, not just the Euros.

Finally, after your first two free bets are settled, you will receive a free bet of £10 that you can use on any sports market. Offer needs to be claimed within seven days of opening your account. 

4. Vbet – £30 in free bets when you stake £10

• Offer amount: £30
• Offer type: 3x £10 multi free bets
• Min stake: £10

You can use your free multi-bets on any sport also. But if you like placing football acca bets, use them on the Euros. Offer has to be completed within 14 days of account registration. 

5. SkyBet – £40 in accumulator bets when you bet £10

• Offer amount: £40
• Offer type: 4x £10 football accumulator free bet tokens

SkyBet is offering all new customers four £10 accumulator bets that can be used on Euro 2024. Ideal for the group stages, this offer requires new customers to place a single bet of £10 at odds of even money (2.0) or greater.

Once you’ve done that, enjoy your four free acca bets. You must complete the process within 30 days of registering your account.

7. Betfair – Get £40 in free bets when you bet £10

• Offer amount: £40
• Offer type: Free bets on free bet builders, acca or multiples
• Min stake: £10
• Min odds: Even money (2.0)

Another bet that sees customers get £40 in free bets for placing a £10 qualifying bet at odds of evens (2.0) or greater. Where Betfair differs from Paddy Power is you can use this offer on accumulators as well as Bet Builders. Apart from that, it’s the same.

This offer is open to be used on any sport. So if you want to bet on something other than Euro 2024, this may be the perfect offer for you. Like with Paddy Power, you have 30 days to complete the process.   

8. SBK – Bet £10 and get £30 in free bets

• Offer amount: £30
• Offer type: Four free bets 2x £10 and 2x £5

• Min odds: 1/2 (1.5)

The SBK offer is a slightly more complicated one than the majority of the others. To start with you have to place a £10 single bet on an event at odds of 1/2 or greater. Once you have done that, you will receive a £10 free bet upon settlement.

A second bet of £10 will later be credited that can be used on a multiple bet, and you will also receive two further £5 bets, one for a horse racing multiple, and one for a footy multiple that can be used on Euro 2024 matches.

Be quick to use this offer, as it has to be played through within three days. 

10. Star Sports – Get 50% back as a free bet

• Offer amount: £25
• Offer type: 50% risk-free bet up to £25 and 25 free spins
• Min stake: £10
• Min odds: Even money (2.0)

Star Sports have gone down a different route to the majority of the other betting sites for their new customers. This bet can be used on any match in Euro 2024, as long as the odds are greater than even money (2.0).

Bet a maximum amount of £50 on your first bet, and you get £25 (50%) back if your bet loses. You will also receive 25 free spins. If the bet wins, you are quids in. 

11. BetVictor – Bet £10 get £30 in bonuses and 30 free spins

• Offer amount: £30 + 30 free spins
• Offer type: Sportsbook and casino
• Min stake: £10

The £20 in free bets are broken down into a £10 free bet on any sport at odds of evens (2.0) or greater, with the second part of the offer, a £10 free bet that is to be used on a 5+ selection acca.

The acca would be ideal for the group stages at Euro 2024. You will then also receive £10 to use on a Live Casino game, along with 30 free spins. A good value all-round offer. 

12. Copybet – Bet £10 get £50

• Offer amount: £50
• Offer type: 5x £10 free bets
• Min stake: £10
• Min odds: 10/11 (1.90)

The Copybet free bet offer is very eye-catching. After placing a £10 qualifying bet on an event at odds of 10/11 (1.90) or greater, you will receive five £10 free bets. The first free bet has to be used on football, and the second on horse racing. Both can be singles. Things start to get a little more complicated now.

Bet 3 has to be used on an accumulator with a minimum of two selections (a double), Bet 4 has to be used on an acca with a minimum of three selections, and Bet 5 has to be used on an acca with at least four selections. All three of the acca bets can be used on Euro 2024.

My favourite Euro free bet offer

The BetVictor offer was close to being my personal favourite, but in the end, I chose Betfred’s Welcome 50 Bonus as my favourite Euro 2024 free bet offer.

The Betfred offer enables me to place two £20 free bets on the Euros, one to use in-play, and one to use on an acca bet. And of course, there are the 50 free spins (20p each) on Fishin’ Frenzy slots. This offer covers the Euros and also gives me a chance to win in the casino. And with seven days to complete the offer, there is ample time to complete the process in a stress-free manner. 

My football expertise

As well as being an avid football fan who has been to the Euros in the past, I am an established sports betting writer with over ten years of experience covering betting, football, and various other sports. 

Over the years I have learnt what bettors want, and using my experience and industry insights, I can steer readers in the direction of a good football betting offer.   

History tells me that the Euros are going to be great for football betting. The competition has always seen the bookies throw great betting offers at us, and I can’t see this summer being any different to the previous competitions I have covered. 

Types of Euro 2024 betting offers

Every time there is a World Cup or European Championships, there have been plenty of betting offers available. Euro 2024 will be the same and as well as all the great gambling offers already available, we expect there to be plenty more throughout the competition. Here is a look at some of the offers you can get your hands on over the next few weeks.

Euros free bets

Euro free bets are usually only available to new customers opening an account. There are some ad hoc free bets for existing customers. But as a general rule, free bets will be awarded for opening a new account. 

Euros risk-free bets

A risk-free bet on the Euros is a bet made with your cash. If it wins, the bookmaker pays you out as a winner. But if it loses, the bookmaker gives you your money back. At the very least, you won’t be out of pocket.

Euros boosted odds

Boosted odds are available on a lot of big Premier League matches, so we believe the same will apply at Euro 2024. An example bet could see Harry Kane’s odds boosted to score anytime. The England captain could be 4/6. But one bookmaker may decide to boost him to even money. 

Euros money back offers

Money-back offers are popular in large football competitions like the Euros. In the past, bet365 has refunded losing bets on outright winner wagers if your team gets knocked out on penalties. Keep your eyes peeled for more of these offers in the build-up to Euro 2024.

Biggest Euro 2024 betting markets

There will be plenty of betting markets available on all 51 matches at Euro 2024. As well as individual match markets, there are plenty of Euro 2024 outright betting markets available for the competition. Some of the most popular are:- 

Euro 2024 Winner

A bet on the Euro 2024 Winner is a bet on the team who lifts the trophy. It doesn’t matter how the team wins the final, just who is victorious and goes down in the history books as the competition winner.

Euro 2024 Top goalscorer

Simply a bet on which player scores the most goals at Euro 2024. Kylian Mbappe is the favourite at 5/1. It’s not necessarily a bet on a striker but on the top scorer. So a goalscoring midfielder could still win it. Penalties scored in shootouts at the knockout stage of the competition don’t count. And it’s always wise to check your bookmaker’s dead heat rules in case more than one player ends the tournament as the top scorer.

Euro 2024 Group winner

The bookmakers are offering odds on who will win all six groups at Euro 2024. A lot of betting tips are for favourites Germany to win Group A. If you think the hosts will top their group, you can back them at odds of 4/9.

Euro 2024 Young Player of the Tournament odds

UEFA has an award for who will be the Euro 2024 Young Player of the Tournament and it is possible to bet on who wins it. The favourite to win the award is England’s Jude Bellingham. Previous winners are Renato Sanches in 2016 and Pedri in 2020. 

Alternative Euro 2024 markets

All your usual popular betting markets will be available on all matches at Euro 2024. Some of the best can be found below. Please be aware that these are all 90-minute markets. In other words, extra-time in the knockout stages won’t be covered in these bets.

Win draw win

A bet on who will win the match, or if it is a draw. Also known as 1X2, or home/draw/away, this is the 90-minute bet on the outcome of the match.

First goalscorer

Simply a bet on who will score the first goal of the match. Check with your bookmaker on the rules for own goals, as they can vary.

Both teams to score

Both teams to score is a bet on both teams finding the net. Own goals count in this market towards the team who benefitted from the goal. As long as both teams have at least one goal by their name, the bet is a winner, no matter who put the ball in the net.  

Correct score

A bet on the exact final score of the match after the referee blows for full-time. The correct score market offers far better odds than the win/draw/win market, but it is far harder to predict.
