DraftKings + FanDuel North Carolina Promos: Get $500 Bonuses in NC; $350 Live in Other States for Sunday Events

The nation's two most popular sportsbooks are live in North Carolina and you can score bonus value on welcome offers at both on Sunday.

If your bracket is busted or you're looking for more ways to enhance March Madness action, sign up for DraftKings Sportsbook to claim $250 in bonus bets. The value will be activated after using the Draftkings NC promo code at sign-up and betting $5 on any event.

Once you've done that, DK instantly will give you the value in 10, $25 bonus bets.

While you're at it, you can also get $250 following a $5 first bet at FanDuel Sportsbook with the FanDuel NC promo code in North Carolina.

The only difference with FanDuel is that you will get the $250 whole and can divide it up into any amount when wagering.

What are the DraftKings & FanDuel Offers in Other States?

If you haven't signed up for DraftKings yet in its other live states, there is a DraftKings promo code for a bet $5, get $150 offer. You will earn this value in six, $25 bonus bets.

With FanDuel, the FanDuel promo code in other states requires winning a $5 bet to earn $200 in bonus bets. Since this is the case, I'd strongly advise taking the heaviest favorite offered in the second round of the tournament or in another league or sport on Sunday.

How to Use DK & FD Bonus Bets

If you're placing a bonus bet in North Carolina or elsewhere at any sportsbook, should seek tight markets. This means there is two sides of the bet closely priced together as opposed to a prop that has one side. The books take accountability for their price in these types of markets.

We advise you do this by betting on an underdog as it is the most beneficial for expected value, which is the average net profit if your bet on a specific event occurred an infinite amount of times.

In Sunday's second round of the men's tournament, I'm looking at Grand Canyon +250 to upset Alabama. GCU is a strong rebounding team and is capable beyond the arc. Its offense is considerably better in offensive rebound rate, free throw rate and turnover percentage.

You have seven days to place bonus bets at either of these books and once you place a wager with them, they don't stay in your account. So if I place a $100 bonus bet on GCU Sunday, I would get a $250 cash payout if the upset happens, but if not I get $0.
