I just got mine. Didn't even notice it because it didnt show up in my account. I randomly found it when I was placing another bet, and saw I had 6 $50 free bets i could use for it.

This is the bet I did on my wife’s account I made to get the fan duel referral bonus. It has to be your very first bet on the site. It’s +5600 for either the Rams or Bengals ML so you bet $5 to win $280. I put it down on the Bengals.

Just got a 20% deposit bonus from FanDuel up to $1000 can be earned with a 1x play through


FYI . I did this with a couple hundred last night . Spread them out over 4 or so parlays. Hit cash out early on original bet and it converted it all to withdrawable cash. Not sure if I caught a loophole you can’t do that on the other apps.

Wonder why the sports betting apps are generally a bit slower than most other apps

Just got 2 free $10 bets from DraftKings due to “having trouble placing wagers” last night. I don’t even think I logging in last night so everyone may be getting them

DK has the same promotion. I set up both accounts for my wife, and bet that $10 on the Rams to win $560.

Then went to my Caesars app and bet $211 on the Bengals to win at +170 (winnings of $359, return of $570).

Guaranteed $349 profit either way

Fine print says Cash payout equal to +5600 is only on the first five dollars ($5) of that outright wager.

$5 on FanDuel, $5 on Draft Kings - they have the same promotion.

You've got to bet it that way for the most money.

If you bet the $10 on the Bengals to win $560, it would cost you $380 to hedge on the Rams (at -200 odds).

$10 to win $560 on the Bengals
$380 to win $190 on the Rams at -200 (total return of $570)
Guaranteed profit of only $180.

The DK $5 to win $280 is Free Bets not cash. FanDuel is $280 cash.

Just signed up for FanDuel

Can already tell their app interface is better than the others. And they accept Venmo to deposit/withdraw to boot

I’ll have to hedge by setting up draft kings accounts. Betting on the Rams with that is smarter because it makes hedging with the Bengals a better payout.

ETA: I see you explained it farther up

ETAA: DK is free bets? F that. Fan duel is so much better than everyone else.

FanDuel says the bonus money can’t be used on promotions

Does that mean I can’t use it on boosted odds?

You can turn the fan duel bonus money into real money by betting on a giant favorite’s ML.

Of course there’s risk of a huge upset but find a game with a massive favorite and bet their ML. You’ll only make a few cents but it will turn that bonus money into real money in your account when it pays out.
