Readers can now use the bet365 bonus code NYPNEWS in all bet365 sports betting states — NC users can find a slight variation of the other promos. If you are in the nine states outside of North Carolina, you can opt-in to one of the following introductory offers.
Offer 1: $1,000 First Bet Safety Net
You can find first bet insurance offers among many of the top sports betting sites where your first bet is essentially covered by bonus bets if it misses. Likewise, a winning bet profits cash winnings and you keep the stake.
This promo requires a $10 deposit and cash bet of any size on any market or odds. Luckily, there are no restrictions on the bet so you can wager on anything you prefer within the bet365 mobile app.
Offer 2: Bet $5, Get $150
Alternatively, this promo requires a $10 deposit and at least $5 on -500 or greater odds. This means Uconn at -750 wouldn’t qualify while Purdue -450 is eligible for the bet/get.
No matter how the bet settles, the wager alone earns the bonus within an hour of bet settlement. You have seven days to use the $150 across the platform to fund a bet and potentially win cash.
How are the bet365 NC promos different?
North Carolina bettors still have time to activate one of the bet365 NC promos before they revert to the national offers mentioned above. You can use the same bonus code NYPNEWS to pick between the following:
$1K First Bet Safety Net — This is the same offer whether you’re in NC or a different bet365 state
Bet $5, Get $200 — NC bettors can access an elevated $200 vs. $150 everywhere else
Can I bet the Final Four with bet365?
Yes, bet365 will feature multiple markets per game including juicy props. If you select the bet/get promo, the UConn moneyline will not be eligible so you’ll need to find a different market.
However, with the spread at UConn -11.5, there may be value in picking Alabama to cover given their potent offense.
bet365 bonus code NYPNEWS, explained
$1K First Bet Safety Net
The safety net makes sense if you like an underdog or parlay and are willing to make a larger stake of $500 or more. That’s not a requirement of the promo; however, smaller bets squeeze less value since only your first bet is covered if it misses.
I could make a +269 same game parlay for Alabama to cover +11.5 vs. UConn and pair it with the over 160.5 points. I think UConn will repeat as champions but Alabama’s explosive shooting could at least make it interesting.
If my parlay hits, I’ll earn 2.69x my stake and can use that on another bet or withdraw. A loss means bet365 covers my stake whether it was $1, $100 or $1,000 with bonus bets.
These bonus bets are valid for seven days to use within the platform on other bets.
Bet $5, Get $150
I like to pick favorites for these types of offers since they allow you to win a bet and keep the bonus. However, make sure to stay within the -500 or greater threshold to be eligible.
For example, Purdue -450 vs. NC State is a perfect example that falls within the requirement. Let’s say I make a $10 deposit and place $5 on the Purdue moneyline.
A Purdue win grants me some small cash profits, returns my $5 stake and I earn the $150 bonus. If Purdue loses, I still win the bonus but no cash in the process.
