Five Reasons to Follow bet365's Early Payout Offer

As the old cliché goes, a 2-0 score line is the most dangerous in football.

Whether it’s a blistering start transformed into a nightmarish collapse or a comfortable lead turned on its head, comebacks from 2-0 are the stuff of footballing folklore.

And at bet365 we always give our customers the chance to win, even if their team doesn’t!

bet365’s Steve Freeth said: “We knew the 2 Goals Ahead offer was popular, now we know why!

“They say that 2-0 is the most dangerous lead in football, but with bet365 if your selection goes 2 goals ahead, then your pre-match bet on the Full-Time Result market gets settled as a winner.”

The bet365 2 Goals Ahead Early Payout Offer is an always-on promotion for all football fans, and available on over 80 leagues and competitions, where selections will be settled as a winner if the team you back goes two goals ahead.

The Early Payout offer is available on single and multiples, as well as Bet Builders and even Super Boosts, and can be enjoyed by new and eligible customers.

Unlike other bookmakers, bet365’s Early Payout Offer is available on the standard Full Time Result market, rather than a separate coupon, meaning customers can take advantage of the offer on the best available prices.

Here’s the top five reasons why our Early Payout Offer continues to give our customers that extra opportunity to win big on the biggest games:

1. It Happens More Than You Think

It absolutely does! The 2 Goals Ahead Early Payout Offer has been invoked in 45% of Premier League matches this season. With 13 reversals occurring, it’s just another showing that you can lock-in a winner before the unpredictability of football steps in to throw a curveball.

In the first month of the season, Erling Haaland bagged his inaugural Premier League hat-trick to condemn Crystal Palace to a 4-2 loss. It wasn’t a bad day for our Early Payout faithful who had backed Palace’s underdog odds and saw it banked thanks to going 2-0 up.

The Premier League once again served up a great day for our customers when Liverpool hosted Brighton in October. Former Seagull Leandro Trossard pinned Liverpool back with two goals inside 20 minutes to get the Brighton backing bettors a confirmed winner added to their bet slip. Full time result? Liverpool 3-3 Brighton.

As recently as Sunday 16 April, it happened again. League leaders Arsenal raced out of the blocks to produce a dream start away from home against struggling West Ham. Gabriel Jesus and Martin Odegaard’s early goals confirming the payout for Arsenal backers, regardless of the home side fighting back to end the game a draw. Early Payout wins again.

2. Your Bet Can Lose, and Still Win

Imagine Liverpool exploding into an early two goal lead against Champions League powerhouses Real Madrid, only to eventually lose the game 5-2.

Now imagine how you’d feel having backed both teams across your bets and BOTH came in.

On a thrilling night of European football under the Anfield lights, that’s exactly what happened. Thanks to the Early Payout Offer a loss on the pitch doesn’t mean a loss on the betslip.

A cold January evening saw the offer come into its own when Villarreal hosted Real Madrid and Tottenham travelled to Manchester City. Both games resulted in epic comebacks and an excellent evening for bet365 customers.

Costing bet365 over seven figures, not only were payouts confirmed for all four teams as singles, but each of the following doubles across the matches were marked as a winner too.

Manchester City – 90 Minute Market (1/2)
Tottenham – Early Payout Offer (5/1)
Villarreal – Early Payout Offer (19/10)
Real Madrid – 90 Minute Market (13/10)
Manchester City/Real Madrid Double (2.45/1)
Manchester City/Villarreal Double (3.35/1)
Tottenham/Real Madrid Double (12.8/1)
Tottenham/Villarreal Double (16.4/1)

The Europa League and Europa Conference provided a memorable night for bet365 customers during the group stages. AEK Larnaca, Rennes, Basel and Molde all went two goals ahead in their respective European ties, ensuring the four-fold paid out on the favourites

However, all of the above teams either drew or lost at the final whistle, but thanks to the Early Payout Offer, fans were still celebrating early with single, multiple bets, and the accumulator settled regardless.

3. No Separate Market, So You’re Getting The Best Offer On The Best Prices

No complications, no hurdles; just security if the team you select goes 2 goals ahead and you get that win banked early before the chaos ensues, and the opposition make their comeback. It’s all irrelevant to our customers thanks to that Early Payout cushion available to them.

For single bets, if the team you back to win goes 2 goals ahead at any stage during the match, we will pay out your bet in full regardless of whether the opposition comes back to draw or win the match.

For multiple bets and Bet Builder bets, if a team you have backed on the standard Full Time Result market goes 2 goals ahead, this selection will be marked as won within My Bets, with the remaining selections left to run.

Bet Builders/Boosts Are Included

Yep, you heard us right. We not only confirm your win early after your team throws away that two-goal lead, but it also means your Bet Builders and Boosted bets get the same celebrity treatment and are confirmed as wins.

Manchester United looked on course for victory in their Europa League quarter final first-leg against Sevilla, after Marcel Sabitzer had the Premier League side 2-0 ahead after 21 minutes. Two late goals in the last ten minutes meant the game finished all square.

bet365 customers who had backed the Red Devils not only benefited from the Early Payout after United went two goals ahead, but the Super Boosted offer of a Manchester United win plus Antony shot-on-target would also be confirmed as a winner too!

Not enough? Well, like London buses, the concession was invoked again just three days later in the London derby between West Ham and Arsenal.

Arsenal to win and a Gabriel Jesus shot on target was Super Boosted from 20/23 to 6/4, with many customers expecting a convincing win from Mikel Arteta’s team.. In line with our 2 Goals Ahead Early Payout Offer, West Ham’s fightback was deemed irrelevant for those Super Boost backers, with Jesus’ goal counting as his shot on target AND putting his team 2-0 up. Banked.

“Arsenal have been in focus over the last week having dropped points in successive matches having been 2-0 up against Liverpool and West Ham. Their backers have had no such worries after we paid out on them in the 29th minute at Anfield, and again after ten minutes at West Ham on Sunday,” added Freeth.

“Not only that but the Super Boost of Arsenal to win & Jesus to have a shot on target at the London Stadium was also classed as a winner in line with the 2 Goals Ahead Early Payout Offer.

“The Gunners alone have cost us well into seven figures over the last week.”

Fine, one more example. Despite that aforementioned 5-2 win for Real Madrid against Liverpool, one lucky punter found the below bet to be a valid winner even having included Liverpool as full time winners in their Bet Builder thanks to our Early Payout Offer.

Multiple Competitions, Multiple Possibilities

We don’t just restrict the reach of the offer to few domestic competitions. Whether you’re having a punt on multiple corners of the globe during a European competition, or picking your winner for a huge fixture between football’s behemoths; we’ve got you covered.

It could be Doncaster’s early two-goal lead during a game against Harrogate Town that they drew that you’re elated by, or sighing early as Spezia blew their two-goal Serie A lead against Empoli to finish two-a-piece that you’re celebrating.

With over 80 leagues and competitions all available to our customers to sink their teeth into, there’s no limitations and everything to gain for bet365 customers as they can still remain unscathed even though their chosen team hadn’t won at the final whistle.
