Bonus Bets, Free Bets & Sportsbook Welcome Promos   

Thinking of betting with a new sportsbook? Then you should know that there are some lucrative welcome promotions on offer for new customers. Claiming a promotion is easy – all you need to do is:  

1. Check all the latest sportsbook promotions specifically for your state – listed in the table above. Found one you like? Click that green ‘Claim Yours’ button. 
2. When you land on the sportsbook promotion page – double check the offer and ensure you read the terms around the promotion so that you are clear on any offer restrictions. 
3. Sign up for the sportsbook – you’ll need your social security number and perhaps a secondary form of identification, such as your state ID or a utility bill - so have those handy. 
4. Some sportsbooks require a promo code – if required, you will find it listed in the table above. Enter it when prompted and that will activate your bonus bet offer. 
5. When your account is opened – ensure you opt-in (if necessary) and meet any bet/deposit requirements to trigger your bonus bets.

The Different Types of Sportsbook Promos 

Sportsbooks generally offer one of four ways to claim their welcome bonus offer:

No Deposit Bonus Bets 

These are a rarity but do appear from time-to-time. Some sportsbooks will offer a small bonus ($25 for this example) that requires absolutely no customer deposit. All you have to do is sign up and have your account verified to take advantage of the No Deposit Bonus.

Bet and Get Promotions

Most popular with sportsbooks right now is the Bet and Get Promotion. This type of sportsbook promotion requires you to make an initial bet to release your bonus. Bet $25+ and Get $200 in bonus bets, might be a typical signup offer. Make sure to read the details because the various sportsbook will differ in quantity of how they award the bonus bets.

Deposit Matched Bonus Bets 

Maybe most popular with customers is a Deposit Match Welcome Offer. The monetary amounts on offer are usually larger, but with the requirement that you must "play through" or bet a certain amount to be able to withdraw any winnings. This offer may be something like: 50% Deposit Match with a 3x play through. In this example, if you deposit $100 you will receive $50 in a bonus bet. But before you are able to withdraw the bonus funds you must play $100 3x (or $300).

No Sweat Bonus Bets 

A frequent welcome offer you may see is a "No Sweat Bet" or an "insurance bet." A promotional example of this might be: first bet insurance up to $1500 – where if your (up to) $1500 first bet loses – you get that same amount credited in bonus bets.
