The post The 6 Best 2024 NFL Betting Promos & Apps to Use on Preseason or Regular Season appeared first on SportsHandle.

The NFL preseason action begins on Thursday with two matchups and continues every day through the weekend. New bettors can bet these matchups and take advantage of welcome promos from top sports betting apps such as DraftKings and BetMGM.

We’ll walk you through each sign up promo and how to qualify.

Best NFL Betting Promos & Apps

1. DraftKings

DraftKings promo code: no code necessary

Bet $5, Get $150 in instant bonus bets

DraftKings provides one of the easiest offers around with low upfront cost. You’ll need a new account — you can click here to set up the account — and a minimum $5 deposit and bet on any market or odds within the platform.

Since there isn’t an odds restriction, you could pick a heavy favorite such as the New England Patriots -305 over the Carolina Panthers on Thursday night.

After submitting the bet, you instantly earn $150 in bonus bets. Next, if your bet wins, you also profit cash from the win.

All DraftKings bonus bets are valid for seven days in your account and deposit as six $25 pieces. You’ll need to use each $25 piece in its entirety and it can’t be split across bets such as five bets of $5.

Bet $5, Get $200 in instant bonus bets (DC)

DraftKings recently launched in D.C. and offers a nearly identical promo to the national one mentioned above. The promo works the exact same, the key difference is that D.C. bettors earn $200 instead of $150 from the initial wager.

2. BetMGM

BetMGM bonus code: SHNEWS1600 or HANDLETOP

You’ll have the choice between two promos in almost all BetMGM sports betting states.

BetMGM bonus code SHNEWS1600

First, this bonus code unlocks a 20% deposit match up to a maximum $1,600 in sports bonus with an $8,000 deposit. As long as you deposit at least $10, it’s entirely up to you on how much to deposit.

After earning the sports bonus, you’ll need to cash bet 10x the bonus earned in the first 30 days of the new account. Once you meet that requirement, any cash winnings in your account are free to withdraw or use however you wish.

You’ll also need to use the sports bonus within seven days to fund bets within BetMGM. If you profit cash from your sports bonus wagers, it can’t be accessed until you meet that 10x cash betting requirement.

BetMGM bonus code HANDLETOP

Alternatively, you can apply this bonus code to access a first bet insurance, worth up to $1,500. You’ll need at least a $10 deposit and cash bet of any size on anything to qualify.

If you win your first bet, the promo is essentially over since you don’t access any bonus bets. If your bet misses, BetMGM matches whatever the stake loss was with bonus bets.

$50 bet or less — BetMGM sends you a single bonus bet to use within the platform

$51 or higher — You’ll receive five bonus bets each worth 20% of your stake. If I lose a $100 bet, I would receive five $20 bonus bets.

You’ll have seven days to play the bonus bets once for potential cash from a winning bonus bet wager.

3. bet365

bet365 bonus code: SHNEWS

bet365 is another book on our list with a choice between two offers in 10 states and an enhanced promo in Pennsylvania, bet365’s newest state.

$1,000 First Bet Safety Net

The safety net is another first bet insurance, worth up to $1,000. If you select this promo, you’ll need at least a $10 deposit and a cash bet of any size on anything.

Just like any other first bet insurance on this list, the outcome of the bet determines how the promo plays out:

Win — You profit cash and keep the stake

Miss — bet365 reimburses your stake with bonus bets up to a maximum $1,000

bet365, with either promo, deposits bonus bets to your account within an hour of the bet settlement. These are funds to use within the platform and are valid for seven days to fund a bet for potential cash.

Bet $5, Get $150

Alternatively, you can make at least a $10 deposit and place $5 or more on -500 odds or longer. This promo differs because no matter how the bet plays out, you earn the bonus bets.

The bonus bets typically deposit within an hour of bet settlement and are valid for seven days. bet365’s bonus bets can be split across bets so you could make 10 $15 bets or place all $150 in bonus bets on one wager.

Bet $5, Get $150 + 50 casino spins (PA)

The Pennsylvania launch promo is nearly identical to the bet/get mentioned with one addition. You’ll also receive 50 casino spins to use on bet365’s online casino to play online slots for a chance at real cash.

bet365’s online casino is currently available in Pennsylvania and New Jersey.

4. ESPN BET

ESPN BET promo code: SHNEWS

ESPN BET offers another first bet insurance, which you’ll notice are quite common among the top sports betting sites.

You’ll need to manually apply the promo code when setting up a new account in 18 available states. Next, make at least a $10 deposit and a cash bet of any size to qualify.

The mechanics of the promo are the same: A win is treated like a normal winning bet while a loss is recouped by bonus bets.

If your first bet doesn’t go your way, ESPN BET always sends five payments of bonus bets that are valid for seven days before expiration.

5. Fanatics Sportsbook

Fanatics Sportsbook promo code: no code necessary

Bet and get up to $1,000 in bonus bets – AZ, CO, CT, IA, IL, IN, KS, MA, MD, MI, NJ, NY, PA, VA, VT, WV, WY

This is a unique bet match offer, where each day you’ll place a daily bet and earn a match in bonus bets up to a maximum $100 each day. Here’s what you’ll need for the promo:

• Click this link to set up a new account with Fanatics Sportsbook
• Opt in to the promo each day in your account
• Place a bet of any size on -200 odds or longer

No matter how the bet settles, the wager alone earns bonus bets on that particular day. The bonus bets hit your account within 72 hours and last for seven days from receipt.

Get up to $1,500 in bonus bets over your first 11 days – KY, KY, NC, TN

In four Fanatics states, you’ll find a slight variation of the $1K promo mentioned above. It includes a $500 bonus bet match available on the first day followed by 10 days where you can earn up to a $100 bonus bet match each day.

The same rules apply where each day you’ll need to opt in to the promo before betting. Then, you can place a bet of any size on -200 or greater odds.

6. Caesars Sportsbook

Caesars Sportsbook promo code: HANDLENEWS1000

We round out the list with Caesars Sportsbook which provides another $1,000 first bet on the house. There are a few key differences from the other first bet insurances on this list.

First, there is a larger betting requirement in that you’ll need at least a $10 deposit and wager to qualify. Next, if your bet misses, the bonus bets are paid out a bit differently.

The bonus bets are always paid out in one single bonus bet. For example, if I wager $500 and it misses, I’ll have a singular $500 bonus bet that must be used on one single straight bet or parlay.
