TAB’s My Offers area can show account-specific bonus-bet promotions to eligible Australian customers. A common published cap is up to $100, but the actual offer, qualifying market, stake limit, deadline and availability can differ between accounts. This 2026 guide explains how to read the offer that appears in your own account before placing a wager. It does not publish or require any code.

The key distinction is between a promotional maximum and an entitlement. Seeing “up to $100” does not mean every account receives $100 or that every losing bet will be refunded. The displayed My Offer is the operative version for that account. If it is absent, expired or marked unavailable, there is no basis to place a wager expecting a bonus bet.

A saver-style offer can return an eligible losing stake as a bonus bet, subject to the cap and the promotion’s rules. For example, a $12 qualifying stake may lead to a $12 bonus bet; a $100 qualifying stake may lead to a $100 bonus bet; and a $140 stake would still be limited to a $100 maximum if the displayed offer uses that cap. These examples explain the arithmetic only. They are not a prediction, a guaranteed return or evidence that a particular wager qualifies.

Bonus-bet value and cash balance are different. A bonus bet is normally used to place one eligible wager of the specified value. It should not be treated as withdrawable cash, and the stake component is not necessarily returned in the same way as a cash wager. Before using it, check the settlement explanation, minimum price if any, permitted sports or racing markets, and the time limit visible in the account.

This guide is for adults aged 18+ who can legally use the service in their Australian location and who see a real offer in their own TAB account. Promotion availability can differ by state and territory, and certain regulatory regimes can exclude residents from particular promotions. A customer outside Australia, a person using another person’s payment method, or anyone with an incomplete account should not assume they can participate.

The safest approach is to keep one account in your own legal name, provide accurate contact details, and complete any requested identity checks early. Do not create additional accounts to try to receive the same offer again. Individual promotions may be removed if account terms are breached, and duplicate-account activity can delay withdrawals or lead to restrictions.

Do not increase a stake merely to reach a cap. A $100 ceiling describes a limit on a possible promotional benefit; it does not make a larger wager safer or more likely to win. The underlying wager still carries risk, and a bonus bet may have separate restrictions.

TAB’s published promotion terms also explain that offers can be restricted to a particular bet type, event or channel. A qualifying wager may need to be the first one meeting the criteria. This is why copying a friend’s bet, placing multiple wagers “just in case”, or changing the bet after it is placed can lead to an unexpected result. The exact wording in the live My Offer controls.

Use payment methods in your own name and keep account information consistent. If verification is requested, submit genuine documents through the operator’s secure process. Do not share login details, payment cards or identity material with other people. These steps are about account security as well as preserving a clear record of deposits, promotional credits and withdrawals.

If an account shows a saver offer that returns the stake as a bonus bet up to $100, a $40 wager could lead to a $40 bonus bet only if it meets every stated condition and loses in the way the offer specifies. The bonus bet is not $40 cash. Check the expiry and permitted markets before using it.

With a $100 cap, the maximum potential benefit remains $100 even where the cash stake is greater. The extra $25 is still exposed to the normal outcome of the wager. A cap is therefore not a reason to stake more than a personal budget allows.

If the promotion is not shown in the account, do not rely on an article, an old screenshot or a message from another customer. Availability can be personalised and regulated differently by location. Wait until a live offer appears and then read its own conditions.

No. My Offers can be account-specific, and $100 is a published cap for some offers rather than an entitlement for every customer. Check the offer displayed in your own account.

A bonus bet is distinct from a cash balance. Read the live bonus-bet terms in the account before assuming how it can be used or what may be withdrawn.

No. The offer can restrict the bet type, market, channel, price, stake and time. Only the precise live terms can confirm eligibility.

A promotion may require the qualifying wager to settle first. Check the account record, the offer deadline and the stated crediting process.

No. Use one account in your own name and follow the account terms. Duplicate accounts or third-party details can cause restrictions.

Only if the exact offer says that cash out is allowed. A cash-out action can make a bet ineligible under some promotion rules.

TAB says bonus bets are valid for a limited time and generally seven days, but the expiry shown with the individual credit is the one to follow.

Betting should be treated as paid entertainment, never as a way to make money or recover losses. Decide the maximum amount and time you are comfortable losing before you start. Take a break if a wager feels urgent, stressful or connected to chasing money. Use the account’s safer-gambling tools where available, and seek confidential support if gambling is becoming hard to control.
