In this section of the site, we’re presuming you’re already fairly comfortable with the basics of matched betting, and we’re moving on to matched betting tips for the novice or even the experienced matched bettor.

Here, we will look at all of the things that can help take you from a sub-£500 profit per month matched bettor and turn you into a £2k+ profit a month certified bookie basher. No risk, super high reward – if of course you’re willing to put the work in. The work is what sets apart the good matched bettors and the great ones.

If you’re interested in elevating your matched betting career to the next level then these tips are for you. We talk exchanges, tips for going full-time and more.

How to Profit from ‘2UP’ on Bet365 & Paddy Power

One of the most exciting offers in the matched betting world is the ‘2 up’ offer that can be found on Bet365 and Paddy Power.

This is a great offer for multiple reasons:

For those without a lot of spare time, it can give large profits for little effort (although a bit of patience will be required).

For those in the early stages of matched betting, it can give bankrolls a hefty boost if luck is on side.

And for those with large bankrolls, there is the possibility for four-figure profits from a single winning bet, with very minimal financial risk to go with it.

In this guide we’re going to be looking at how to exploit the 2-up offer, the different 2-up strategies you can use and also a range of hints and tips for making the most profit possible.

VIP scheme qualification
How to Get into Bookmaker VIP Schemes – 2026 Guide

Bookmaker VIP schemes can be extremely lucrative for matched bettors.

They will likely be unprofitable for regular high stakes bettors, although will appear amazing on the surface. That’s exactly why they’re designed – to tempt high earners to lose even more than they were previously over a long period of time.

We here at Beating Betting, and friends of ours, have been VIP members at Coral, Ladbrokes, 888 and Betway, as well as various casinos.

With that said, it’s probably fair to say that we know a thing or two about qualifying for VIP programmes.

We’ve also had correspondence with multiple people that claim to be VIP members of Bet365, Betfred and other lesser-known bookies.

Whilst we don’t have concrete evidence of these existing because we’ve not been a part of them ourselves, we’ve had enough discussion around qualification, account management and the types of offers received to say with some confidence that they are, or were, almost certainly real.

Let’s dive in to telling you exactly how you can be invited to VIP status.

Betting with wagering requirements
How to Handle Offers with Wagering Requirements

If you’re completely new to backing and laying your bets for profit, avoiding offers with wagering (or ‘rollover’) requirements is heavily recommended.

The level of complexity increases slightly with these offers and they also tend to increase the time taken to complete, too.

Generally speaking, you get better bang for your buck by sticking to the more simple offers — especially when you’re first starting out with a small bankroll.

However, everyone reaches the point where the easiest offers have been used up and it’s time to move on to the slightly more complex offers.

The good news is that just because they can be a little more time consuming, offers with rollover requirements can also be more profitable too. This is because the bookmakers can generally offer higher value bonuses due to the wagering demands putting a certain percentage of beginner matched bettors off.

In this guide, we’ll look at how best to tackle wagering.
