Go to Scorebet

ScoreBet does not use a promo code for its welcome offers. On 13 November 2026 its promotions page listed a R20 Welcome Bonus "applied to all new clients after successfully registering", 10 Aviator flights once your FICA documents are approved, and three deposit matches: 100% up to R5,000, then 125% up to R6,250, then 150% up to R7,500, each from a deposit of R50. Used on sport, every one of these rewards must be rolled over 5 times "at odds of 2.25 or greater" within 72 hours, and what you can withdraw is capped by your deposit tier.

ScoreBet promo code: none on the offer pages

We read ScoreBet's promotions page, its sign-up bonus, FICA bonus and first, second and third deposit pages, and its general bonus terms on 13 November 2026. None of them asks for a code. The R20 arrives on registration, the deposit matches "will immediately be issued following your first successful deposit of R50 or more", and the Aviator flights follow FICA approval. ScoreBet is operated by Deeps Betting Grounds (Pty) Ltd t/a ScoreBet, which its footer says "is licensed and regulated by the Northern Cape Gambling Board".

Card of ScoreBet sign-up rewards: no code, R20 on registration usable on sport at 5x and odds 2.25 within 72 hours with a R50 cap, deposit matches of 100%, 125% and 150% from R50, withdrawal limits by tier, 10 Aviator flights after FICA
ScoreBet's new-customer rewards as listed on 13 November 2026.

The R20 Welcome Bonus

The R20 is a "Choice Reward": you use it on sport (including lotto and racing) or on casino content, "but not both". On sport it "must be rolled over 5 (five) times", it can be used on singles or multiples "at odds of 2.25 or greater" and not above 100/1, and it expires "72 hours after issue". The most you can withdraw from it is R50. It does not wait for FICA: "Persons who have signed up successfully but have not yet submitted FICA documentation can also participate." Betting both sides of one event, such as high and low on a lucky number, can cost you the bonus.

In practice, R20 at 5x means R100 of bets at odds of 2.25 or more, within three days, for a possible R50 of cash. It is a way to try the sportsbook, not more.

2nd125%R6,250Big Bass BonanzaR50
3rd150%R7,500Buffalo King MegawaysR50

Each match is another Choice Reward with the same rules as the R20 on sport: 5x "in full at odds of 2.25 or greater", used within 72 hours of issue, with a maximum win of R5,000 per bet and the warning that "cashed out transactions will not contribute" to the rollover. On casino the rollover is 10x. The spins go with the match, 25 to 150 depending on the deposit, on Pragmatic Play slots; casino-style games at bookmakers are legally contested in South Africa, so we cover only how the match works on sport.

From ScoreBet's 1st, 2nd and 3rd deposit pages, read 13 November 2026. 72 hours is shown as 3 days. Withdrawals are limited by deposit tier.

Withdrawal limits by deposit tier

The most important number on each deposit page is not the match but the "Withdrawal/Winnings Limit" column. It ties the cash you can take out of the bonus to the size of the deposit, not to the bonus itself.

Bar chart of ScoreBet withdrawal limits by first-deposit tier: R50 to R250 allows R250, R251 to R500 R500, R501 to R1,000 R1,000, R1,001 to R1,500 R1,500, R1,501 to R2,500 R2,500, R2,501 to R5,000 R5,000
Withdrawal limits from the ScoreBet first deposit table. The second and third deposits use the same tiers.

A R200 first deposit, for example, earns a R200 match that needs R1,000 of bets at 2.25 or more within 72 hours, and however well it goes, at most R250 can be withdrawn from it. The tiers work the same way for the 125% and 150% matches, so the bigger percentages on the second and third deposits raise the rollover more than they raise what you can take home.

A R500 first deposit, followed through

Suppose you deposit R500. ScoreBet issues a R500 match and 30 spins straight away. If you choose sport, you now have 72 hours to place R2,500 of bets (5 x R500) at odds of 2.25 or higher, without cashing any of them out. Winning bets grow the bonus balance; losing ones shrink it; every settled stake counts towards the R2,500. If you finish in time with money left, it can move to your main wallet, but no more than R500 can be withdrawn, because a R500 deposit sits in the R251 to R500 tier. Placing R2,500 of bets at 2.25 in three days is roughly ten R250 bets on outsiders or short multis. Many people will find that harder than it sounds, which is why the size of the first deposit should follow your normal betting, not the size of the match.

Why the 2.25 odds floor matters

Odds of 2.25 mean the bookmaker rates your pick at roughly a 44% chance or less, before its margin. On a typical weekend, most match-winner bets on favourites are priced lower. To meet the floor you will be backing draws, underdogs, handicaps, both-teams-to-score combinations or two-leg multis. None of that is wrong, but it raises the share of losing bets, and with it the chance that the bonus runs out before the 5x is reached.

Aviator flights after FICA

When ScoreBet approves your FICA documents, it adds "10 Free Aviator Flights" within 72 hours. They are a bonus bet on a crash game: only winnings go to the main wallet, capped at R250. Crash games at bookmakers are legally contested in South Africa, so we mention this reward only because it is part of the published sign-up package; the useful part for a sports bettor is that it shows FICA approval is worth doing early.

Six-step diagram of ScoreBet new-customer rewards: register for R20, use it within 72 hours at 5x and odds 2.25, get FICA approved, first deposit of R50 or more, roll the match 5x within 72 hours, then 125% and 150% on the next deposits

Rules that can cost you the bonus

  • Odds of 2.25 Every sports bet with bonus funds must be at 2.25 or more, which rules out most favourites.
  • 72 hours Each reward must be used within 72 hours of issue or it is forfeited.
  • Cash Out Cashed-out bets do not count towards the rollover.
  • Both sides of an event Bonus bets on opposing markets in one event, such as Home, Draw and Away, can be revoked.
  • Rolling deposits at 9/10 or 1/1 The terms name deposits rolled over at very short odds to claim bonus funds as abuse.
  • Multiple accounts Accounts sharing an address, bank details or IP lead to closure "and no refund of the deposit".

Other ScoreBet promotions

The promotions page also listed an Odds Boost of up to 35% on sports accumulators depending on the number of legs, a refund of up to ten times your stake when one team lets a multi down, a playoff refund of three times the stake up to R5,000, and prize giveaways for lotto and Pragmatic Play players. Each has its own "More Info" page with terms; ScoreBet's general bonus terms say "each promotional offer is subject to its own terms and conditions". Compare offers across licensed bookmakers on our welcome bonus page and check which brands publish real codes on the promo codes page.

Is the ScoreBet welcome package worth taking?

The R20 costs nothing and is a fair way to try the site. The deposit matches look generous, with 125% and 150% on later deposits, but three conditions shrink them: odds of at least 2.25 on every bet, only 72 hours to complete 5x, and withdrawal limits linked to deposit tiers. A bettor who already backs underdogs and multis at those prices, with small deposits, gets the most from it. Anyone else is better off depositing without claiming, which the general bonus terms present as a matter of choice.

Play responsibly
