8 MLB Sports Betting Promos to Claim for New Users at DraftKings, FanDuel & More

MLB's Opening Day has finally arrived following an offseason of headlines and enormous contracts. With the fresh start that lies ahead for MLB franchises, you can get your journey started at some of the top online sportsbooks in the industry. Sites like FanDuel and DraftKings offer abundant MLB sports betting promos, and you can claim one when you register today.

You can find these sign-up bonuses in many structures, including Bet & Get promos, first-bet insurance, and bet match opportunities.

Let's discuss the nine best MLB sports betting promos to claim for Opening Day and beyond and how to utilize each one on today's slate.

8 MLB Sports Betting Promos for Opening Day

BetMGM

BetMGM has two MLB sports betting promos for new customers looking to wager on Opening Day. You can claim a 20% deposit match of up to $1.6K in bonus bets or a $1.5K first bet insurance promo.

The 20% deposit match has a 10x rollover requirement, so if you were to deposit $1K, you are in line for $200 in bonus bets. However, you must wager through ten times that amount ($2K) to get the entire bonus. Use the BetMGM bonus code TOPTAN1600 to claim this offer.

If you opt for the first-bet insurance bonus using the BetMGM bonus code TOPACTION, you can place your first bet and have it "insured." If you win the bet, you get the profit like usual. If you lose, you receive your stake back as bonus bets up to $1.5K.

For example, if you bet $100 on the Brewers moneyline (-105) against the New York Mets, a win would get you $95.24 in profit. A loss would give back $100 in bonus bets.

FanDuel

FanDuel is offering its new customers a welcome offer that can unlock $200 in bonus bets with a winning $5+ first bet. This structure differs from most Bet & Get offers, given that your bonus isn't guaranteed. You must win your first bet to receive anything from this FanDuel promo.

We suggest taking a heavy favorite to give you the best chance at earning bonus bets.

A solid option is to bet $5 on the D'Backs moneyline (-250) against the Colorado Rockies. If the bet wins, you receive $2 in profit and $200 in bonus bets. If the bet loses, you won't receive profit or a bonus. This is why backing a first bet that is highly likely to win is imperative.

DraftKings

Registering at DraftKings today, you can place your first bet for $5 or more and get $150 in bonus bets. This offer is one of the most straightforward promos for Opening Day and doesn't require a DraftKings promo code.

Suppose you wager $10 on the Royals moneyline (+100) against the Minnesota Twins. If the Royals win, you receive $10 in profit. Win or lose, you'll get $150 in bonus bets.

bet365

Using the bet365 bonus codeTOPACTION, you can pick between two sign-up offers: a $1K first bet safety net and a "bet $5, get $150 in bonus bets" promo.

The $1K first bet allows you to place your initial wager; if it wins, you earn the profit like usual. If it loses, you earn bonus bets back up to $1K, equal to your losing bet.

The Bet & Get is simple. Bet $5 or more on any market that is -500 odds or longer, and you'll earn $150 in bonus bets, win or lose. For example, if you bet $5 on the Dodgers -1.5 (-110) against the St. Louis Cardinals, you'll get $4.55 in profit plus $150 in bonus bets with a win. Even if you lose, you'll still get your $150 bonus.

ESPN BET

ESPN BET promo code ACTNEWS unlocks $150 in bonus bets when you place your first wager for any amount.

For example, say you place your first bet for $20 on the Pirates moneyline (+115) against the Miami Marlins today. If your bet on the Pirates wins, you receive $23 in profit and $150 in bonus bets. If the Marlins win instead, you don't turn a profit but will still get $150 in bonus bets.

Fanatics Sportsbook

At Fanatics Sportsbook, you can earn as much as $1K in bonus bets in a uniquely structured MLB promo for Opening Day. After registering, your first bet for ten consecutive days is matched up to $100. So, you can get $100 in bonus bets daily for ten days.

If you place your first bet for $110 on the first day after registering, you will receive $100 in bonus bets. You can follow this process for the nine remaining days of the promo.
