BETTING OFFERS FOR THE 2024 GRAND NATIONAL
Bookmakers who offer promotional deals become thin on the ground during the week of the Grand National. Those new customer offers you see advertised on TV will suddenly disappear at the beginning of April, only to resurface fifteen minutes after the Grand National is over!
However, there are a few betting firms out there who don’t leave punters high and dry on Grand National day. Betfair and Paddy Power are two such companies. Not only do they offer various promotional deals but they usually payout enhanced eachway places on the big race.
Along with information on the latest deals we also have a number of useful guides to betting. Our comprehensive ‘newbies guide‘ covers everything you need to know about betting on the Grand National – but were afraid to ask.
The guides and offers can be found below, and remember to check out our tips for the 2023 Grand National!

When it comes to betting on the Grand National, one of the most crucial decisions you'll make is selecting the right bookmaker. Here's a breakdown of key factors to consider when choosing where to place your bets.
Competitive Odds
The odds offered can make a significant difference in your potential winnings. Always compare the odds across multiple bookmakers to ensure you're getting the best value.

Non-Runner Guarantees: Ensure that the bookmaker offers 'Non-Runner, No Bet' or 'Non-Runner Money-Back' guarantees. This will protect your stake if your chosen horse doesn't end up running.
Faller or Unseated Offers: Given the challenging course, some bookmakers offer refunds if your horse falls, is unseated, or brought down. This can be a valuable safety net.

Assess the Terms and Conditions
Always read the fine print. Look for conditions like wagering requirements, minimum odds, and the time frame within which the offer must be used.
Reputation and Licensing
Always opt for bookmakers that are licensed and have a solid reputation in the industry. This ensures that your bets are secure and that you're betting in a fair environment.
