Edit Bet: New Sportsbook Feature
Alongside the welcome offer refresh, Unibet has launched Edit Bet, a genuinely useful sportsbook feature that addresses one of the most common minor frustrations in football betting: spotting another selection you want to back after you've already placed your bet.
How Edit Bet Works
- Place your bet as normal.
- Open My Bets and select Edit Bet on an eligible open bet.
- Add one or more additional selections from other events or markets.
- Your bet updates instantly with the new combined odds.
Key Rules
- The stake cannot be changed — you're extending the existing wager, not restaking
- Existing selections cannot be removed — Edit Bet is add-only
- At least one selection must remain unsettled (suspended selections are allowed)
- Bets placed with rewards (free bets, promotional credit) are not eligible
- Bet Builder bets cannot be extended using Edit Bet
- Additional selections can be added from other events, not just the original event
For punters who like to layer selections across a weekend of football, Edit Bet is a genuine product point of difference.
Refer A Friend: Up to £50 in Free Bets
Unibet's refer-a-friend programme rewards existing customers who successfully bring new sign-ups to the platform, with rewards for both the referrer and the referred.
How It Works
- Place a qualifying bet: Ensure your account is verified, funded, and you've placed £10 in sports bets at odds of evens (2.0) or higher.
- Invite a friend: Share your personal referral link and code with a friend who is new to Unibet.
- Get rewarded: Once your friend completes the qualifying steps and all qualifying bets have settled, you'll both receive a £10 Free Bet — repeat for up to five friends for a maximum of £50 in Free Bets.
