Learn how to bet on sports responsibly as we take you through the simple, step-by-step process of finding your preferred markets, considering your betting options, and placing your wagers at JeffBet.
Step 1: Find a Sport, League, or Event
Browse our sportsbook and decide which sport, league, and events to bet on. We offer mainstream markets (football, golf, tennis, cricket, etc.) alongside niche betting options, such as esports, water polo, and speedway.
Tip: Use our search bar to find the specific competition you’re looking for.
Step 2: Consider Your Betting Options
You now need to decide which bet to place:
| Bet Type | Explanation |
|---|---|
| Outright | A wager on the winner of a league or competition. |
| Match result | A bet on the result of a specific match (win or draw, for instance). |
| BTTS | A bet on both teams to score (BTTS) or not to score in a match. |
| Totals | A wager on the total number of points or goals scored. |
| Props / Specials | A bet on a specific outcome within a game, not tied to the result. |
| Accumulator | A wager on more than one outcome or result. |
Step 3: Check the Odds
Check the odds and understand what they represent. At JeffBet, we list odds as decimals by default, but you can change them to fractions if you prefer.
Decimal odds indicate how much you will win from a £1.00 wager. So, if you back Tottenham Hotspur to beat Aston Villa at 2.50 and bet £10, a Spurs win would give you £25.
Step 4: Set Your Limits & Decide How Much to Bet
Via your account dashboard, use our responsible gambling tools to set limits and stay in control:
- Deposit limits: Within your account’s Bet Smart Hub, cap how much you can deposit daily, weekly, or monthly. You can apply loss & wager limits, too.
- Session reminders: Activate a timer to remind you how long you’ve been online. This can help you keep track of the time you spend gambling online.
- Exclusion settings: If you’d like a break from JeffBet, you can set a self-exclusion period. Feel free to contact our support agents for details on how to do this.
After setting your limits and using our tools, decide how much to wager each time you bet on sports. For responsible bankroll management, we recommend using no more than 1-5% of your total funds each time you place a bet.
Step 5: Place Your Wager
Click on the fixture or outright market you want to bet on to see your options. Then, press the odds that appeal to you, and your selection will automatically appear in the bet slip on the right-hand side of the screen.
If you’re placing a single, enter your stake and click BET NOW. If you’re placing a treble or accumulator, add more selections to complete your wager.
Step 6: Monitor Your Bet & Cash Out
Sign in to your JeffBet account on your PC, smartphone, or tablet, and monitor the event in real time. Depending on what happens in the fixture, you may want to cash out early, where available.
Alternatively, you may also wish to access our in-play markets for the same game or a different match to add to your wagers.
Finally, after the match or event, any winnings will be added to your JeffBet account. You can withdraw or leave your winnings in your account to fund future wagers. We process all withdrawals quickly and without any fees.
