Advice on how to use your FanDuel and DraftKings promos and how they work
FanDuel promos
As I noted already, your first bet needs to win for you to get the bonus bets associated with your state’s promo. Because of this, you’ll want to be careful about what your first bet is. You may want to shy away from betting a big underdog and instead bet on a favorite. You can also find a prop bet you feel is relatively safe, even if the payout isn’t fantastic.
Because FanDuel’s bonus bets don’t restrict you in how you can wager them, you’ll want to do everything in your power to win your first bet. If you get $200 in bonus bets for example, you can turn that into ten $20 bets, two $100 bets, or seemingly anything you can think of.
DraftKings promo
This promo is an easier one to take advantage of due to your bonus bets being guaranteed. Not only are they guaranteed, but they’re instantly unlocked simply by submitting your first bet. This gives you more opportunities Tuesday to bet with money on the house if there are other games you’re interested in.
Unlike FanDuel where your bonus bets can be split up in any way, DraftKings issues you six $25 instead. You can mix and match strategies on how you use these six wagers, but make sure you use them within seven days before they expire. FanDuel also gives you a seven day limit to use your rewards.
