Sports Betting in France

Online sports betting in France has operated under a licensing framework since the law of 12 May 2010. The ANJ approves operators and the sports competitions and bet types they can offer. This means a market available on an international site may not appear on its French counterpart. Online casino slots are not authorised in the French market.

Welcome Bonuses

The largest combined welcome package in this selection reaches €110 at Betsson. The offers differ in how rewards are credited: free bets, BetBoost, BonusBets and cash can have different conditions.

A €20 free bet at odds of 2.50 normally pays €30 in net winnings, not €50 including its stake. PokerStars is distinct here because its advertised first-bet refund includes a cash component.

Ongoing Promotions

Betclic uses Multiboost for eligible accumulators, while Unibet offers Pari sur Mesure for selections within a single match. The other four operators have their own promotions.

  • Betclic: Multiboost adds 2% to 100% to eligible accumulators of two or more selections, with minimum odds of 1.20 per selection. A live event is needed for combinations of two to four selections. MyCombi combines markets from the same football or basketball match; eligible pre-match bets can be cancelled within two minutes.
  • Unibet: selected football bets settle as winners when a team goes two goals ahead, with similar early-win offers at a 15-point lead in Top 14 rugby and a 20-point lead in NBA basketball. Pari sur Mesure combines up to 10 selections from one match.
  • Bwin: Combi du Jour credits 25% of a losing accumulator with at least five selections at odds of 1.30 or higher each, capped at €10 per day.
  • PokerStars: Power Path offers a €1.50 ticket for qualifying accumulators staked from €10 to €29.99, or a €10 ticket for stakes of €30 or more. Each qualifying accumulator contains at least two selections priced at 1.20 or above.
  • Betsson: Coup de Boost raises net winnings by 2% to 100%, capped at €200 per eligible bet, with a €5 minimum stake and odds of at least 1.80. A separate three-selection accumulator offer provides 10% cashback, with minimum odds of 1.30 per selection.
  • DAZN Bet: Multiboost offers an increase of up to 100% on qualifying accumulator returns.

Referral offers also differ: Unibet lists €30 for each eligible participant after the new player deposits at least €15. Betclic and Betsson offer €10 per eligible referral, with their own validation requirements.

How to Bet Online in France

Betting in France requires an account on an ANJ-approved French website. The registration process has five main steps:

  1. Enter your name, date of birth and residential address.
  2. Provide identification, proof of address and bank account details for verification.
  3. Set a seven-day deposit limit before funding the account and a seven-day stake limit before placing a bet.
  4. Make a deposit through a payment method available on your account.
  5. Place an eligible first bet if you want to use the selected welcome offer.

A new account is provisional until the operator verifies the documents. Players generally have 30 days to complete these checks.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use the same account while travelling outside France?

Access and betting permissions depend on the operator and your location. The French account does not automatically work on the brand’s international site.

Can I bet on the same event at different French sportsbooks?

Yes. Separate bets may be placed with different ANJ-approved operators, subject to each site’s market and account rules.

What can I do if a withdrawal complaint is not resolved?

Contact the operator first and keep the correspondence. If the dispute remains unresolved or there is no reply within 20 days, you can approach the French gambling mediator.

Are winnings from occasional sports bets taxed?

Occasional betting winnings are generally not subject to French income tax. Different treatment can apply in exceptional cases where an activity is classified differently for tax purposes.

Can I bet on French amateur competitions?

Only competitions and bet types authorised under French rules are offered. Some amateur fixtures are therefore excluded from licensed sports betting markets.
