How to bet on Super Bowl LIX with your sign-up bonus

How to use your sign-up bonus depends on what your welcome offer is. For example, if you sign up with the BetMGM bonus code GRINDERS1550, you get a first bet on the house, up to $1,500. Place your first bet and wait for it to settle. If your first bet loses, you receive the amount of money you lost (called a stake) back in bonus bets. This BetMGM promo also comes with a $50 BetMGM Rewards Points Bonus.

Bonus bets are able to be used to pay for bets without having to pull from your own money. For example, if you bet $100 on the Chiefs to defeat the Eagles in the Super Bowl and lose, you get $100 in bonus bets back to use on other wagers. If the Chiefs win, you profit money and get your cash stake back.

Another example of a type of how to bet on the Super Bowl with a sign-up bonus is if you register with the Caesars Sportsbook promo code RGTOPDYW. With this promo, you must make a first bet of at least $1. Once you submit your first bet, you unlock 10 100% Profit Boost Tokens that double your winnings on a bet.

Some bet-and-get promos require your first bet to settle before you get a bonus, while others just require you to place your first bet. Some sportsbooks have minimum odds your first bet must have in order to qualify for your welcome bonus. It’s important to read the terms and conditions of your promo before you place your first bet.
