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 that doesn’t tempt you to consider opening an account with Fitzdares, maybe their sign up offer will as new customers can receive an extremely generous £30 free bet + 20 free spins when creating an account and placing a bet of £30 or more.
As mentioned above, the Fitzdares welcome offer is very generous and matches that of many of the bigger bookies.
A £30 free bet is available to new customers which is credited when placing a bet of the same or greater amount after registering.
On top of that, new customers will also get 20 Free Spins to use on the popular online slot game, Fishin’ Frenzy Big Catch.
The signup offer is available to new customers and so the first step is to register an account which you can do by clicking here.
Note that if you visit the Fitzdares website directly, you will not be able to claim the £30 sign up offer. You can only claim it be clicking through to the promo page from one of the links on this page.
After registering, make a deposit and place a bet of £30 or more at odds of Evens (2.0) or greater.
Within 24 hours of your bet settling, Fitzdares will credit your account with a £30 free bet.

Your free bet can be used on any sport, market or event so long as the odds of your bet are 1/2 (1.5) or greater.
If a £30 free bet isn’t enough for you, simply load the Fishin’ Frenzy Big Catch slot game from within the casino section and you’ll find 20 Free Spins waiting to be used.
Fishin’ Frenzy Big Catch is a hugely popular slot that was released in 2021 by Blueprint Gaming. With wins of up to 5000 x your stake possible it’s not hard to see why this game has proved to be such a big hit.

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.
