Receive a Paddy Power free bet if your acca (minimum five selections) is let down by one selection.
Like many of the top UK bookmakers in the industry, Paddy Power offers its customers an acca insurance. In short, Paddy Power will credit a free bet (maximum £50) if one selection lets the acca down. This is fantastic for punters who want to maximise the odds of their accas, being able to add a risky selection to the mix.
The best part about the promotion, as we are sure many will agree, is the fact that almost all sports and markets qualify for the acca insurance. We say almost, because while Paddy Power's promotion text clearly says 'All Sports, All Markets', it is revealed in the terms and conditions that horse and greyhound racing are the exceptions. Nor is it possible to qualify for the promotion with enhanced odds or in-play markets.
To qualify for the offer, punters must place an acca bet with at least five selections at a minimum odds of 3/1 (4.00). The maximum free bet that a customer can get for a failed acca is £50, credited as a free bet, and the promotion can only be used once per day. The free bet itself must be used within 7 days.
It should be noted that while some promotions and acca insurances on the market act as refunds, that is not the case with Paddy Power. The free bet value usually varies from month to month, as stated by the T&Cs of the insurance, so it should not be seen as a way to get a 'risk-free bet' of sorts.
To use Paddy Power's Acca Insurance for the first time, follow our step-by-step guide:
As stated in the 'Paddy Power Acca Insurance Explained' section above, you will need to have at least 5 selections to qualify for the promotion. You also need to have a minimum odds of 3/1 (4.00) for the acca in total.
Note: You must have an account with Paddy Power to make use of the promotion. If you don't have an account with the bookie, it's worth checking out the welcome bonuses up for grabs as well.
Once you have placed the acca bet, the acca insurance will automatically apply. Remember that it can be used once per day, so take that into consideration when placing your acca bets.
If one selection loses, then you will receive a free bet worth up to £50, and the amount will depend on the month/date. The free bet must be used within 7 days and the stake will not be returned with any potential winnings.
