NetBet will also offer the chance to win free haircuts, wet-shaves and beard maintenance packages, details of which will be posted on the NetBet Sport Facebook page.

NetBet spokesman Alexandre Mangaud said: “We have offices just down the road and having often argued about football with the team at Jack’s, whilst getting a trim, we figured that a tie-up between Bookmaker and Barber was a natural fit.”

“Football is a major topic of conversation in the barber’s chair, and will be even more so while the Euros’ are on,” Mangaud added.

“The addition of Health Bingo provides our affiliate programme with some interesting variety, which will make the brand more attractive to a larger number of affiliates,” said Yakir Firestane, head of online gaming at The Health Lottery. “We expect that affiliates will see a big boost in player registrations.”
