When you use Swift Bet on the app, you still enjoy the same benefits as a bookmaker’s app, such as extra places, money-back offers, and Best Odds Guaranteed. If you are opening a new account, check out the latest free bets and registration offers to secure the most advantageous promotional deal.
Understanding Best Odds Guaranteed
Best Odds Guaranteed (BOG) is automatically applied to your bets, ensuring you receive the best odds for the horse you back. If you place a bet at 3/1 and the odds increase to 5/1, you will be paid at the higher rate. This does not apply to SP (starting price) bets, which are paid out at the starting price of the race.
Placing Your Bet
Navigate to the racecard for the race you want to bet on. Select the horse you wish to back by tapping the odds button next to its name. This action adds your choice to your bet slip. You can select multiple horses for various bet types, including forecasts, by clicking +Add Selections. Continue browsing racecards to make additional selections.
Decide on your stake and whether your bet is to win or each-way. If you’ve chosen more than one horse, select the type of multiple bet you want to place. The app will show your estimated returns based on your total stake. Once ready, hit Place Bet. To watch the race live, ensure your bet is £1 or more. Locate the Watch Live option on the racecard to start viewing 2-3 minutes before the race begins.
