Coupon Betting Term Meaning

By definition, a coupon is a form that can be filled in and used to purchase or get something, and the betting term meaning for a ‘coupon’ is exactly that.

Those old enough will be familiar with the most famous coupon of them all: The Football Pools Coupon. Every week thousands of players would sit down with a pen and put their crosses next to the list of matches that they believed would end in a draw.

While the traditional Football Pools is not as common these days, the coupon has lived on in the world of online sports betting. The coupon is no more than a list with the aim being to make betting quick and easy. 

Essentially, you can have a coupon for any sport or racing event but true to its roots, the majority of betting coupons are reserved for football.

It depends on the bookmaker as to the specific coupons. This is what is currently available at bet365.

All that is required is to click on the ‘Yes/No’ odds for the match you want and that selection will be added to your bet slip. 

You can then stake this as a single-selection bet or you can add more selections to build a multiple or place a system bet.
