It’s Christmas morning for racing enthusiasts up and down the country as the 2026 Cheltenham Festival is set to reach its climax with the Gold Cup at 4pm.
Ahead of the day’s first race getting underway at 1:20, check out BetMGM’s latest promotional offer for new customers below.
Gold Cup betting offers: Bet £10 get £40 on BetMGM
The bet £10 get £40 on BetMGM is exclusively for new customers only. To claim the offer, you must first sign up for a new account on the platform and ensure the promotion is selected within your account settings.
Once you have done this, you must deposit at least £10 into your account and place a bet of the same value on any sports market with odds of 1/1 (2.00) or greater. This must be done within seven days of the account opening.
Once this qualifying bet settles, you will receive four £10 free bet tokens. These tokens can be used on any sports market, but bets must be a multiple (two selections or more).
These free bets will remain in your account for seven days. If any are unused after this period, then they will expire.
Although this offer isn’t exclusive to Cheltenham or horse racing, it is an excellent way to give yourself £40 worth of free bets for the festival.
Alternatively, you may be tempted to split the free bets across Cheltenham and the UEFA Champions League round of 16 matches that are set to take place in the coming days.
Existing customer promotions on BetMGM
Although this offer is only available to new BetMGM customers, the bookmaker has also ensured that existing customers have something to enjoy this week, too.
They’re offering selected customers money back as a free bet on losing bets on the 1.20 at Cheltenham, as well as paying six places on the 2.00.
Daily boosts on horse racing are available all week for all BetMGM customers who opt in to the promotion on a Monday and stake a maximum of £20 each day. All those who qualify will receive a 10% profit boost on one horse racing bet each day.
To opt in, BetMGM customers need to head to the Promotions page on the platform’s website and/or app and select the opt-in button. Then, once they have selected the horse racing market of their choice, they must select the ‘Profit Boost’ option on the betslip.
