Where to enter your betting promo code
Text
While many UK bookmakers have moved toward “automatic” bonuses, promo codes—also known as bonus or referral codes—remain a standard part of the industry. Forgetting to enter one is the easiest way to lose out on a welcome offer.
There are two primary places where you will need to enter these codes:
- The Registration Stage: During the sign-up process, look for an optional field labeled “Promo Code” or “Bonus Code” near the bottom of the form. In 2026, these codes are often used to track specific affiliate offers or TV adverts. If you leave it blank here, you may be locked out of that specific deal.
- The Deposit Stage (The Cashier): If no code was required at sign-up, you will likely need it when funding your account for the first time. In the “Cashier” section, enter the code next to your deposit amount. Ensure you use a Debit Card, as UKGC regulations prohibit credit cards and often exclude e-wallets from bonus eligibility.
Many modern sites now use “Opt-In” buttons instead of manual codes. You may see a pop-up after registration asking if you want to claim your bonus. Simply clicking “Yes” triggers the reward.
The Golden Rule: Always copy and paste the code to avoid typos. If you have already deposited and realised you forgot the code, contact Live Chat immediately before placing any bets; a support agent might be able to add it manually as a gesture of goodwill.
