If you are located in North Carolina and want to bet on sports starting Mar. 11, you can pre-register with BetMGM Sportsbook. You can even use the BetMGM bonus code LABSTOP to get an entry offer.
The pre-registration promotion grants you $200 in bonus bets just for creating an account and making a deposit. The minimum deposit is $10.
Bonus bets from BetMGM do not return your original stake if you use them on a wager. They only return your profits.
Though some sportsbooks have dual offers that trigger both with pre-registration and at launch, that is not the case with BetMGM. You will not be eligible for the launch offer if you pre-register.
BetMGM bonus code options in other states
If you are located in another BetMGM state, you have access to two promo codes. Here is a breakdown of both offers below.
- BetMGM bonus code LABSNEWS1500. This offer is a 20% deposit match worth up to $1,500 in sports bonus. To get the full $1,500, you would need to deposit $7,500. The main restriction with this offer is the 10x rollover requirement. That means you have to wager 10x what you get in sports bonus before you can withdraw your cash. For example, if you got $1,500, you would need to place bets worth $15,000 before the restriction is lifted.
- BetMGM bonus code LABSTOP. Using this code unlocks a “bet/get” offer in non-NC states. All you have to do is place a $5 bet on anything to get $150 in bonus bets. The bonus bets are credited to your account even if you lose your wager. You will get six $25 bonus bet increments.
You cannot use BetMGM bonus code LABSNEWS1500 in Kentucky and Washington DC. However, you can still use the BetMGM bonus code LABSTOP in those states.
There are no BetMGM bonus codes available in Nevada and New York.
Betting on the NBA with BetMGM bonus bets
A solid strategy for using bonus bets is placing a wager on an underdog, as that provides more expected value over time. An easy way to do so would be betting on one of Sunday’s NBA games.
The Suns are listed at +180 to defeat the Thunder, and that could be good value. Phoenix still has the star trio of Devin Booker, Kevin Durant, and Bradley Beal, and Oklahoma City simply doesn’t have the size or athleticism to deal with Durant’s scoring.
Here is what would happen if you used $100 in bonus bets to wager on the Suns.
- If the Suns win, you would get $180 in profit. You would not get your stake back because the wager was made using bonus bets.
- If the Thunder win, you do not receive any cash since you lost the bet.
