How to claim the BetMGM bonus code

With the BetMGM bonus code CBSSPORTS, bettors in Michigan, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and West Virginia can get $150 in bonus bets after placing and winning a first bet of at least $10. That “bet and get” promo is only available in those four states, but there’s another offer available to BetMGM users in another state. With the other offer, which also uses the code CBSSPORTS, bettors can get up to $1,500 in bonus bets when their first bet loses. BetMGM returns the stake from a user’s first bet in bonus bet form if that bet loses. So if you bet $1,500 on the Red Sox to beat the Yankees but New York wins, you’d get $1,500 in bonus bets credited to your account. There’s no minimum odds requirement for either BetMGM offer.

BetMGM bonus code terms and conditions

The BetMGM bonus code CBSSPORTS is only available to new users who’ve never made an account before. You must also be 21 or older and be in a state where BetMGM operates. The promo code can be used on any of the NFL, MLB or WNBA games today.

With the offer for up to $1,500 in bonus bets, it’s important to note that the amount you wager impacts how you will receive your bonus bets. If your first bet loses and is for under $50, you get one single bonus bet slip equal to your stake. If you place a bet of $50 or more and lose, you get five bonus bet slips, each worth 20% of your initial stake. So if you bet $100 and lose, you’d get five $20 bonus bet slips. 

Bonus bets can’t be withdrawn, as they hold no cash value, and they expire after seven days. If you win a bet with bonus bets, you get the winnings but not the stake. Sign up with BetMGM to get bonus bets here:
