By RTR Alex
With so many different online poker sites to choose from, it can be nearly impossible to know which one offers the greatest sign-up bonus and we all want to be getting the best bang for our buck.
So, to help you out, we've compiled a list of all the best online poker bonus offers for UK sites. (All bonuses are correct as of November 2022).
Betkings - $1000 Matched Deposit OR $100 Free
Perhaps the best welcome offer for UK online poker rooms is Betking's. Their welcome offer is the largest matched deposit bonus available right now!
Here’s how it works. Deposit $20 or more, and choose between these two amazing Welcome Bonuses:
Up to $100 in cash & free tickets OR A 200% matched bonus to a maximum of $1000!
$100 In Free Rewards:
If you select the $100 in rewards, your bonus package is made up of:
OR
200% Matched Deposit up to $1000
If you simply want a matched bonus offer, you can do that instead! With a matched bonus, BetKings matches the amount of your eligible deposit 2-dollar-for-1-dollar, up to a maximum of $1000!
This matched amount is credited to your bonus balance, which unlocks into cash as you play. $1 will be unlocked for every $5 paid in net rake/tournament fees. And you’ll have plenty of time – 90 days – to unlock your bonus balance into cash! All you have to do is just keep playing!

Simply use bonus code NEW888 when you sign up to cash in on this great offer and start playing poker with your real money bonus!
Unibet - £20 Deposit Bonus + £500 Play-through bonus + €2,000 Freeroll Tickets
Now, this bonus may sound straight forward but there's actually a lot more to it than meets the eye. The Unibet welcome offer doesn't work how bonuses work normally, instead they have opted for a 'play-through' style of unlocking that makes their site offer very unique.
Here's the full breakdown:
£20 worth of Poker tickets
The £20 free is in the form of five poker tickets: 1 x €8 cash game ticket, 4 x €5 Unibet UK Tour tournament tickets. €28 EUR being equivalent to £20 GBP.
£500 Play-through Bonus
Playthrough bonuses are activated upon first deposit from the poker client. Playthrough bonuses are released in increments and automatically credited to your real money balance once cleared. Bonus money will be released according to the following table
Extra 4 x €500 Welcome Freeroll Tickets
The 4 x €500 Welcome Free-roll Tickets is in form of 4 x €500 Welcome Free-roll tickets that are credited to each new player after the creation of his/her first identity on the poker client. €500 Welcome Freerolls are weekly and start every Sunday.
GG Poker - Deposit £10 Get £40 Free Play or Matched Deposit Up To £500
GG is one of the largest networks out there and part of their popularity comes from their welcome offer. The brand offers one of the best poker bonuses in 2022 for their UK players. You can choose between two options to get the reward that you prefer.
Deposit up to $600 and receive a Matched Bonus.
With a matched bonus, GGPoker matches the amount of your eligible deposit dollar-for-dollar, up to a maximum of $600.
This matched amount is credited to your bonus balance, which unlocks into cash as you play. $1 will be unlocked for every $5 paid in net rake/tournament fees - equal to 20% rakeback. You have 90 days to unlock your bonus balance into cash.
OR
Deposit £10 and get £40 ($50) Free Play
Key terms and conditions: $50 Free Play offer made up of $52.50 in free All-In or Fold SNG tickets from Welcome Bonus and $2.50 in free tickets from Daily Freebie. Free tickets automatically credited to eligible players’ accounts over a six-day period. GGPoker’s game currency is USD ($), GBP (£) is only used for illustrative purposes.
partypoker - 100% Bonus Up To £400 Deposit + £40 Free Play

The big difference is that as a new player at partypoker, you will receive both their free play and the despot bonus money. So, if you want a mixture of bonuses with your sign-up then partypoker may be your best choice.
