Bet9ja's Basketball and Tennis Rewards gives you 25% of your net losses back as a free bet, up to ₦100,000 per week, on all basketball and tennis bets.
Here's the thing. Most Nigerian bettors focus exclusively on football. But basketball (NBA, EuroLeague) and tennis (ATP, WTA, Grand Slams) offer year-round betting opportunities when football leagues are on break.
This promotion softens the learning curve by returning a quarter of your losses while you build expertise in these markets.
📊 Key stat: 25% loss recovery rate is significantly higher than the typical 5 to 15% offered by most cashback promotions on football.
How Basketball and Tennis Rewards Works
The promotion runs on a Wednesday to Tuesday cycle. During this period, all your settled basketball and tennis bets are tracked. If your net result is a loss of ₦2,000 or more, you receive 25% back as a free bet.
| Detail | Specification |
|---|---|
| Reward type | Free Bet |
| Reward % | 25% of net losses |
| Maximum reward | ₦100,000 per week |
| Minimum net loss | ₦2,000 |
| Qualifying period | Wednesday 00:00: Tuesday 23:59 |
| Eligible sports | Basketball & Tennis only |
| Bet types | Singles and multiples |
⚠️ Important: Net losses are calculated as total losses minus total wins across all basketball and tennis bets during the cycle. If you end the week in profit, no reward is triggered.
