Newzbitez -Betfred Launch £5million ‘Let It Snow’ Christmas Draw

Published Date November 22, 2023

‘Let It Snow’ is a well-known and popular Christmas song, but this year it has a lot more meaning for anyone that chooses to pay Betfred a visit.

We know it’s not strictly bingo, but we always make a point of stressing that the sportsbook sites with an online bingo section, like Betfred and Paddy Power, offer so many more options on top.

Betfred, together with its creative and production agency Zút, has launched the ‘Let It Snow’ giveaway with its first ever Christmas TV advert. If it snows on Christmas Day (snow lying at London Heathrow Airport Weather Station at 09:00 on Christmas morning), the firm will pay out a total of £5 million, split between five lucky prize draw winners.

Check out the video and click our link to visit the site. If you want to take part in the promotion, you have to opt in to qualify for a free entry. After that if you want more chances to win, every subsequent bet of £1 or more on sportsbook, lotto draws or virtual sport will qualify for a further entry up to a maximum of 100.

If there is no snow at the designated time and place then the £5m will be given away if both teams score in every Premier League game in Matchweek 19.

*18+. Runs from 10/11/23 to midnight 24/12/23. Opt-in required for one free entry, then every betslip of £1+ at Betfred.com qualifies up to max 100 entries/player. 5 prizes of £1m if snow lies at Heathrow Airport Weather Station at 09.00 25/12/23. Max 1 prize/player. Winners notified by 14/1/24. Excl. and full T&Cs apply. Please play responsibly. BeGambleAware.org
