FanDuel is one of the most well-recognized sportsbooks in the United States. It will be one of the available platforms for North Carolina bettors after sports betting officially launches in NC on Mar. 11. If you sign up for an account before Mar. 11 using this FanDuel promo code you will be eligible for a pre-registration offer worth up to $300 in bonus bets.
To get the first portion of the pre-registration offer, all you have to do is register for a FanDuel account. If you create a FanDuel account in NC ahead of Mar. 11, you will get $100 in bonus bets just for registering. No deposit is required at this stage.
The second part of this promotion is a “bet/get” promotion, that is worth $200 in bonus bets. Once Mar. 11 comes around, you will be able to deposit $10 or more into your account, and then bet $5 on anything to get $200 in bonus bets. The bonus bets are credited to your account whether you win or lose.
Bonus bets from FanDuel expire seven days after being credited to your account. They only return the profit if you win a wager after using them, and you can’t use them on round-robin wagers.
FanDuel promo code in non-NC states
In other states, you can also sign up with a FanDuel promo code, though the offer will be a little different from the NC-specific deal.
The promotion for all non-NC states is a conditional “bet/get” promotion. You still have to bet $5 on anything with your first wager like you would in NC. However, with this promotion, you actually have to win your wager to get $150 in bonus bets.
Though having to win your wager is certainly not optimal, there are strategies to increase your chances of getting the bonus bets from this promotion. You can place a bet on a heavy favorite to try and get your $150 in bonus bets. In theory, there will be less of a chance of an upset when betting on a heavy favorite, which means an increased chance of you getting the value from this offer.
Here is a Sunday NBA matchup that could work to get your bonus bets. The Heat are listed at -490 to win against the Wizards, and it is fair to say that they are a heavy favorite in this scenario. The Wizards are 10-53 on the season, and don’t have the star power to compete against a playoff team like the Heat.
Here is what could happen if you placed a $5 wager on the Heat in a non-NC state.
- If the Heat win, you get back your $5 stake and all your profits. Your bet will be successful, and you will thus receive $150 in bonus bets.
- If the Wizards win, you lose your stake and get no bonus bets because your wager lost.
How to sign up and claim the FanDuel promo code
- If you are located in NC, use the NC-specific FanDuel module. In all other states, use the standard FanDuel module. Clicking either module activates the FanDuel promo code.
- Follow all the steps during registration to create an account. Make sure to use accurate info so FanDuel Sportsbook can verify your identity. In NC, you will get $100 in bonus bets just for creating an account.
- Make a deposit of $10 or more.
- Place a $5 bet on anything. In NC, you get $200 in bonus bets whether you win or lose. In other states, you need to win your wager to get $150 in bonus bets.
