You rarely need a promo code to claim a US welcome bonus in 2026. Almost every offer on this page attaches itself when you register through the operator’s link and opt in, and where a Promo Code box exists, we tell you whether typing anything into it changes the deal. Every offer below was checked on October 30, 2026, and sits next to its full terms and the states where it is live.

Sportsbook promo codes and bonus bets
Our partner sportsbook offers are concentrated in New Jersey, the state that won the Supreme Court case which opened up legal sports betting. The list below shows each one with its terms in full.

How Gold Coins and Sweeps Coins welcome packages work
A sweepstakes welcome bonus looks nothing like a real-money casino bonus, because no deposit is involved. Each site runs two currencies. Gold Coins are play money with no cash value; you get a pile on sign-up and can buy more. Sweeps Coins are the prize currency: you cannot buy them, only receive them free, and winnings from Sweeps Coin play can be redeemed for gift cards or cash once you have verified your identity.
That is why the headline numbers run into six figures. A 100,000 Gold Coin welcome gift costs the operator nothing, so the figure worth reading is the Sweeps Coin element. Of our four partners, RealPrize is the one that adds Sweeps Coins from day one (2 Sweeps Coins after verification); NoLimitCoins adds 10,000 Gold Coins for confirming your email, while Funrize and FunzCity both open with 125,000-coin welcome gifts. None asks for a Promo Code, and none requires a purchase.
Before you redeem, expect a 1x playthrough on Sweeps Coins, an ID and address check, and a minimum redemption, commonly $25 to $50 for a gift card. Availability is shrinking fast: more than a dozen states now ban or block sweepstakes casinos, and Oklahoma’s ban takes effect on November 1, 2026. Our sweepstakes casino guide tracks every state.
Horse racing sign-up offers
Horse betting runs through licensed advance-deposit wagering (ADW) sites, and their welcome offers usually reward volume rather than a single bet: you earn bonus cash as you wager over a set window.
- TTwinSpiresUp to $200 sign-up bonus: $100 in bonus cash for every $400 wageredWager and earn
New customers 18+ (21+ in some states) in eligible states. Wager $800 within 30 days to unlock the full $200. One offer per household.
- NBNYRA BetsUp to $200 new member bonusWager and earnRead our NYRA Bets review
New members in eligible states. Bonus credited after qualifying wagers within the promotion window; one offer per household.
- AAmWager100% first deposit match up to $50First deposit match
New customers 21+ in eligible states. Deposit $50 and bet $50 within 30 days to earn a $50 wagering credit; unused credit expires after 30 days. Promo Code applied automatically.

Prediction market sign-up credits
Prediction markets are regulated as federal exchanges, not sportsbooks, so their welcome offers are smaller and work differently. Sign-up credits are typically non-withdrawable and paid in installments, and most apps open accounts at 18.
- DPDraftKings PredictionsSpend $5, get $200 in Predictions Dollars (paid over 21 days)Sign-up credit
New customers 18+ in eligible states. $5 in trades required. Bonus credits are paid in installments and are non-withdrawable.
- FPFanDuel Predicts$25 sign-up bonusSign-up credit
New users 18+. Create an account, verify identity and make a trade. Bonus credits are non-withdrawable; availability of sports contracts varies by state.
- RPRobinhood Prediction MarketsFree stock worth $5 to $200 for new Robinhood accounts (most users receive $5)Stock reward
New Robinhood customers 18+. The reward is for opening and funding a brokerage account; it is not a prediction-market credit and must be sold before the value can be used to trade event contracts.
The best-known exchanges offer nothing up front. Kalshi has no welcome bonus, only a referral program for existing users; Polymarket and the not-for-profit PredictIt have no sign-up offer at all. Our prediction markets guide explains how event contracts are priced.
How promo codes work in the US
A promo code is simply a tag that tells the operator which offer you signed up under. Where an app still has a Promo Code box, it sits on the registration form or the first deposit screen. Increasingly it does nothing: bet365, for example, lets you enter a bonus code at sign-up, but the offer amount is the same without one. Most operators now load the offer from the page you arrive on, then ask you to opt in, which is why every partner offer above carries the label “Promo Code applied automatically.”
Three rules apply everywhere. You must be 21 or older at a sportsbook or online casino (PlayStar’s New Jersey welcome offer goes further and requires 25+). You must be physically inside an eligible state, which the app confirms by geolocation before you can claim or place a bet; residence does not matter, location does. And welcome offers are for new customers only, usually one per person or household.
Bonus bets, deposit matches, lossback and No Sweat offers
Bonus bets (bet and get). Place a small qualifying bet and receive bonus bets win or lose, as with FanDuel’s $5-a-day offer. Bonus bets are not cash: when one wins, you keep the profit but not the stake.
No Sweat bets. Hard Rock Bet pays its New Jersey offer as ten daily No Sweat tokens worth up to $50 each. If the bet you place with a token loses, the stake comes back as a bonus bet.
Second-chance bets. Only a losing first bet triggers the refund, as with BetRivers. If your first bet wins, you simply keep the winnings.
Deposit matches. The casino adds a percentage of your first deposit as bonus funds, with wagering attached. PlayStar matches 100% up to $500 at 30x; bet365 Casino matches up to $1,000 at 25x or 30x by state.
Lossback. Net losses over your first 24 hours return as casino credit. Hard Rock Bet Casino refunds up to $1,000 at 1x wagering within 14 days, a far lighter ask than most matches.
Playthrough, wagering and expiry
Playthrough is the amount you must bet before bonus money turns into withdrawable cash. Sportsbook bonus bets usually carry 1x, meaning you bet them once. Casino matches are heavier: a $500 match at 30x means $15,000 in slot play before you can cash out. Many casino bonuses also apply to selected games only, usually slots.
Expiry clocks are short. Bonus bets at Hard Rock Bet, FanDuel and bet365 expire after seven days, Betinia’s No Sweat tokens after 24 hours, PlayStar’s match after 30 days, and casino spins commonly after seven days. Claim only what you will use inside the window.
How to compare welcome offers
- Wagering before size. A $1,000 lossback at 1x is easier to clear than a $1,000 match at 30x.
- What you must risk. A $5 or $10 qualifying bet suits a newcomer; $20 qualifying bets at odds of -150 or longer suit a regular.
- Odds limits. Many sportsbook offers exclude heavy favorites from qualifying bets.
- State caps. BetRivers pays up to $500 in some states and $100 in others; bet365 pays $150 in Illinois and Tennessee.
- Your state. Only offers live where you are physically located count.
How we choose and rank operators is set out in how we review.
Bonuses and responsible play
A welcome bonus is a marketing incentive, not income. Set deposit and time limits in the app before your first bet, and walk away if a bonus pushes you to bet more than you planned. If gambling stops being fun, call 1-800-GAMBLER (24/7) or visit the National Council on Problem Gambling. Our responsible gambling page explains the tools every licensed operator must offer.
Do I need a promo code to get a sportsbook bonus?
Usually not. Every partner offer on this page applies when you sign up through the operator’s link and opt in. Where a Promo Code box exists, check whether the code changes the offer; at bet365 it does not.
Can existing customers use promo codes?
Welcome offers are for new customers only. Existing players get ongoing promotions such as odds boosts and reloads inside the app, and Kalshi runs a referral program for existing users.
Are bonus bets the same as cash?
No. Bonus bets cannot be withdrawn, and when one wins you receive the profit without the stake. Most expire after seven days.
Can I claim a bonus in a state where I don't live?
Yes, if you are physically inside an eligible state when you sign up and play. The app checks your location before every bet.
Do sweepstakes casinos need a promo code?
None of our four sweepstakes partners asks for one. Their welcome coins arrive when you register, with no purchase necessary.
What is a good wagering requirement?
For a casino bonus, 1x is excellent and 15x to 20x is fair; at 30x you need to play through thirty times the bonus before withdrawing.
