Although not one of the biggest bookmakers, Fitzdares has been online since 2005 and has been growing in popularity in the UK for many years.
The bookmaker has been included in the nominees for SBC’s Racing Sportsbook of The Year on many occasions but also offers customers betting across various other sports such as Football, Greyhounds, Tennis, Basketball and many others.
If you’ve done your research and are considering signing up, you may want to know more about the Fitzdares sign up offer which is available to all new customers.
We’ll be explaining what the Fitzdares new customer offer is and the steps you need to take to claim it.
In March 2025, Fitzdares announced that they were temporarily removing their sports sign up offer. This is due to the brand moving to a new software provider. However, we have been informed that the new Fitzdares sign up offer will be significantly better and should be live in the very near future.
Previously, new customers at Fitzdares could receive £25 in free bets when they place their first bet of £50 or more. On top of that, Fitzdares also credited new accounts with 10 free spins to use on selected slots in the Fitzdares Casino!
At the present time, it’s unclear what the new Fitzdares welcome offer will be but as soon as it’s released you’ll find full details of the promotion on this page.
As mentioned above, new customers at Fitzdares were able to receive 10 free spins to use on the Reel King slot in the Fitzdares Casino on top of £25 in free bet. We’re not sure if free spins will be included in the new and improved offer that is set to launch soon but we can hope that there will be.
For their old welcome offer, a Fitzdares promo code was not required. Should a bonus code be needed for the new offer once it goes live, we will share the correct promo code to use on this page.
If you have a free bet available in your Fitzdares account, they are easy to use. Simply find an eligible bet to place, add the selection to your bet slip, and select to use the free bet as your stake before placing your bet.
In a time where new online bookmakers are emerging on almost a monthly basis, it’s refreshing to hear about the back story of how and why Fitzdares was established.
Fitzdares was launched by Balthazar Fabricius, father of Rod, the ex-Managing Director of Goodwood Racecourse, who had the vision of making bookmaking a once again personal service that he felt had diminished from the industry.
He initially launched as a private telephone business which soon transformed into the first ever bookmaker to offer betting via text message.
In 2016, the company was taken to the next level with the acquisition of Sunderlands which was a bookmaker with a long history dating back to 1946 and even later if you count the acquisition of T. Guntrip who was a farmer who set himself up as a bookmaker towards the end of the 19th century.
Although horse racing is clearly the main focus at Fitzdares, since venturing online they have been able to offer betting across several different sports in a bid to attract more customers.
Members of Fitzdares are able to bet on sports such as Horse Racing, Football, Greyhounds, Basketball, Boxing, Ice Hockey, Rugby, Snooker, Tennis and even Politics and Specials such as the next actor to play James Bond. They’ve come a long way from a telephone betting service and with their rich and personal history, have a dedicated fan base which will surely grow in the years to come.

Being a relatively small and personal bookmaker we weren’t expecting too many exciting betting promotions from Fitzdares but we are pleased to say that we were wrong. They are certainly in touch with their customers as there are several offers available that will appeal to not only racing punters but those who bet on other sports such as Football, Tennis and Golf also.
All promotions are subject to change but some of their regular horse racing offers include:
Rags To Riches – Get your money back as a free bet up to £10 if your horse finished 2nd to a 20/1 winner.
Up To 20% Bonus On Multis – Get bonus winnings on Lucky 15, 31 and 63s
Injury Time Saver – If your bet loses due to a goal scored in injury time, Fitzdares will give you your money back as a free bet up to £10.
One, two, FREE, four, five! – Back five players to win in the same tournament and you’ll receive a free bet to the value of your average stake to use in-play.
Game, set, money back – Get 10% back on all in-play tennis losses at the end of every week (max refund £5,000)
Fitzdares classes itself as a personal bookmaker and they certainly live up to that expectation with their customer support options.
