Ahead of the NFL kickoff, almost every major sportsbook is offering sportsbook bonuses and promotions to attract new customers during what is often the busiest time of the year for online sports betting sites.
Below, we look at the promotions available today September 8th, at sports betting sites like DraftKings, FanDuel, Caesars, and Fanatics, including any promo codes — if necessary — plus the other main details to qualify for any of the deals as NFL’s Week 1 is upon us.
DraftKings promo code
DraftKings Sportsbook offers a three-part welcome promo for up to $1,300 in bonuses. New customers will first receive a single-use $50 bonus bet when they sign up, along with an additional $250 in bonus bets (in $25 increments) when they wager $5 or more. Bonus bets are nonwithdrawable, and customers will have seven days to use them before they expire.
New users are also eligible for a 20% deposit matching bonus, up to a maximum of $1,000 in bonus funds. This offer isn’t available in Massachusetts. Note that the deposit match funds are subject to a 25x playthrough requirement over a 90-day period, so it would take $25,000 worth of action in that span to unlock the full $1,000 matching bonus. All new users also receive a one-month subscription to NFL+ Premium.
FanDuel promo code
The FanDuel Sportsbook promo offers new customers $200 in bonus bets when they sign up and place a first wager of at least $5, whether that first bet wins or loses. Those customers will also receive a three-week trial of NFL Sunday Ticket at YouTube TV.
This welcome bonus doesn’t require a promo code, and the minimum deposit is $10 to qualify. The promotion is scheduled to run until Sept. 22. There are no odds restrictions on the initial $5 wager that unlocks the bonus. Unlike some other books, FanDuel allows customers to use the bonus bets like cash, so the $200 bonus can be separated into 200 different $1 bets or into two $100 bets as desired. The bonus bets expire seven days after FanDuel issues them.
Caesars Sportsbook promo code LSR1000
Use the promo code LSR1000 to receive the welcome bonus at Caesars Sportsbook, unlocking a refund of up to $1,000 as a bonus bet if your first wager loses. Once you’ve signed up using the promo code, deposit at least $10 and place your first wager of anywhere from $10 to $1,000 to qualify. The book will return your stake in the form of a single-use bonus bet if your first wager loses.
Profit boosts, round robins, and other special bets will not qualify for the promotion. The initial wager must settle within 30 days of when you created the account, so futures bets might not qualify. The bonus bet is nonwithdrawable, you can’t separate it into multiple wagers, and you will have 14 days to use it before it expires.
Fanatics Sportsbook promo code
The Fanatics Sportsbook promo offers new customers a deal that runs for the first 10 days after account creation. The book will match a single bet — between $5 and $100 — each day over the first 10 days for a maximum bonus of $1,000 during the promotional period. You don’t need a promo code to claim the bonus; just click the link on this page, sign up, and deposit at least $5 to qualify. Bettors don’t have to opt in on the first day, but there is an opt-in button for days two through 10 to choose which wager qualifies for the promotion.
Bets must have odds of -200 or longer to qualify. Each bonus bet will expire after seven days, and users can’t separate them into multiple bets. The offer runs until Dec. 1.
