About Free Bets and Bonuses

It might seem too good to be true that online sportsbooks are offering huge bonuses for new customers.

With increased competition for your business though, this is an excellent way for betting sites to get you to bet with them.

Most of the bonuses on offer have requirements such as turnover before you can withdraw. So it's not entirely 'free money' as you'll still have to bet the bonus before you can withdraw!

Matched Free Bets are Great

One of the best bonuses is the 'matched bet'. This means your first bet will be matched 100% as free money into your account.

So for example, if you bet $200 on the NFL, once that bet is settled - win or lose - your account will be credited with $200!

Unibet Sportsbook is going one step further for the Big Game by giving new customers $20 Free Bets, $21 Live Free Bet on the Big Game PLUS 2 x $250 Risk-Free Bets.

Getting Started Online

Each sportsbook has its own signup process, but they are all basically the same. It only takes a minute or two to open your account. Here's how you can get started at an online sportsbook:

Create Your Account

Sportsbooks will ask for your basic information such as first name, last name, home address, and email address. They will also ask for your social security number. Don't worry about this, as it's part of their identity confirmation process related to money laundering laws.

Don't worry about your details; they will be stored securely and not released to any other companies.

Deposit Funds

Of course, in order to bet, you'll have to deposit funds into your new sportsbook account. Some sportsbooks have more deposit options than others, but the main ones are:

• Credit and Debit cards
• Bank Transfer
• PayPal
• Play+ Cards
• Cash at casino cages

Sportsbook Bonuses

When you signup with a sportsbook, you'll be offered a bonus. This might look too good to be true (Free $500 When you Join! etc) but there are terms attached to each offer.

The more common types of bonuses are:

Risk-Free Bet

New Jersey Online Sportsbooks

This one is fairly simple. Place your first bet and if it wins, you'll collect as normal. However, if it loses, you will be insured for that loss up to a certain amount.

These risk-free bets are only good for your first bet at the sportsbook. This means you are best placed to signup when you see a bet you want to place a bigger amount on. This will give you the best payback if your bet does lose.

Example:

• Bet $50; get $50 back if it loses
• Bet $500; get $500 back if it loses
• Bet $1,000; get $500 back if it loses

Deposit Bonus

• Deposit $100; get $100 extra funds (100%)
