Betfred is taking the sting out of the Springboks-All Blacks series with a full stake refund (up to R500 in bonus funds) if your qualifying single bet loses — giving locals a proper safety net across all four Tests.
The biggest rivalry in rugby just got a safety net
There’s nothing quite like a Springboks-All Blacks Test. Two heavyweights, decades of history, and the kind of tension that makes even the most confident punter second-guess their selection. This year’s series is no different, and Betfred has stepped in with something that actually softens the blow if things go sideways.
How the risk-free bet works
You place a pre-match single on any of the four Tests between South Africa and New Zealand. The odds need to be 2/1 (3.0 decimal) or better, and it has to be real money — bonus funds don’t count. If that bet loses, Betfred refunds the full stake as bonus funds, up to R500.
Here’s the simple breakdown:
| Requirement | Detail |
|---|---|
| Bet type | Single, pre-match only |
| Minimum odds | 2/1 (3.0) or higher |
| Stake type | Real money only |
| Refund amount | Full stake back as bonus funds (max R500) |
| Limit | One refund per game |
| Bonus funds usage | Singles on sports only |
| Rollover | Once before transfer to main wallet |
| Expiry | 2 days after allocation |
Key points to remember
- Only the first qualifying bet that loses on each game triggers the refund
- Bonus funds cannot be used on multiples or Bet Builder
- Stake is not returned to the bonus wallet — only the refund amount is credited
- Maximum withdrawal from the bonus wallet is R10,000
- Any unresulted bets at expiry mean the entire bonus is forfeited
Why this offer fits the rivalry
Rugby clashes can be unpredictable, with momentum shifts, penalties, and late scores often overturning initial predictions. This offer returns your stake as bonus funds if your bet is unsuccessful, easing the pressure when placing a wager. You can confidently support your chosen team or bet on a less likely outcome without significant financial risk. This promotion applies to all Tests scheduled from August 22 to September 12, providing multiple opportunities to utilise it.
For new customers, opening an account is straightforward. Registering with the BetFred promo code BETS entitles new players to a welcome package that complements the risk-free betting feature. This initial bonus provides additional funds for your account before your first qualifying bet. Please note the standard terms: refunds are issued as bonus funds, not cash, and these funds are subject to standard rollover requirements, expiration dates, and market eligibility. Betfred also enforces rules against promotional abuse, such as placing minimal bets solely to meet requirements or attempting to cover all possible outcomes, which would invalidate the bonus. Adhering to the terms ensures the promotion functions as intended.
