History
It all began in 1967 when our founders, Fred and Peter Done, took the winnings from a successful bet placed a year earlier on England to lift the World Cup in 1966 to finance the opening of a single betting shop in Salford, Manchester.
We have since grown into one of the largest independent bookmakers in the United Kingdom.
In the early days, the focus was on traditional in-person betting, offering odds on horse racing, greyhound racing, and other sports. As the technology evolved and online betting became more popular, we expanded our offerings to include online sports betting, casino games, and other forms of gambling, establishing itself as a major player in the UK gambling market.
Today, we operate 1,350 betting shops in the UK and a successful online betting platform, offering competitive odds, an extensive range of betting markets, and innovative products, making Betfred a popular choice among sports bettors in the UK and beyond.
