Virgin Bet is the sportsbook that carries the Virgin brand in the UK, run by the LiveScore Group alongside LiveScore Bet on the same platform. It’s a football-first book with a bet builder, in-play markets and a clean app, and its welcome splits the free bets between the sportsbook and bet builders.

Virgin Bet Free Bet Explained
Place a £10 bet at odds of 1.5 (1/2) or longer and, once it settles, Virgin Bet credits £30 (£20 sportsbook + £10 Bet Builder) in free bets. The stake on a free bet is not returned with winnings: a £10 free bet at evens pays £10, not £20.
The £30 is split: £20 for the sportsbook and £10 that can only be used on Bet Builder bets. Accept the free bets within 7 days of the award and use them within 7 days after that.
Our Tips for Using the Virgin Bet Free Bet
Use the £20 sportsbook portion on singles at 2.0 or longer — with the stake not returned, short prices waste the token.
Build the £10 Bet Builder around one match you actually know; the leg count decides how often it lands.
Check the deposit method exclusions before funding — an excluded method means no free bets.
