North Carolina has had legal online sports betting for almost a month, and Tar Heel State residents can still claim welcome bonuses at sites like FanDuel and DraftKings. Both sites send $200 in bonus bets once you settle your first $5+ bet. You can get $400 in value for just $10 in bets when you claim both offers. No promo code is required to claim your bonus offer.
In other states, new FanDuel sign-ups can claim $200 in bonus bets as long as their first bet of $5 or more results in a win. The DraftKings promo unleashes a "bet $5, get $150" offer without the "win your first bet" requirement.
FanDuel North Carolina Promo: Bet $5, Get $200
Register at FanDuel North Carolina today and get $200 in bonus bets when you wager $5 or more. This offer is available in most other FD states but has a first bet win requirement attached. With this NC offer, you'll get your $200 bonus, win or lose.
Say I wager $10 on the Orioles -1.5 (-110) against the Kansas City Royals.
- If the Orioles cover the run line, I earn $9.09 in profit and $200 in bonus bets.
- If the Orioles don't cover the run line, I earn the $200 bonus alone.
DraftKings North Carolina Promo: Bet $5, Get $200
Like at FanDuel, new customers at DraftKings can bet $5+ in North Carolina and get $200 in bonus bets. All betting markets are eligible, and just a $5 minimum deposit is required. Let's look at an example of how the promo works.
Suppose I bet $5 on the Twins moneyline (+120) against the Milwaukee Brewers.
- If the Twins win, I earn $6 in profit and $200 in bonus bets.
- If the Twins lose, I don't get a profit but still earn the $200 bonus.

At FanDuel, in most states outside of North Carolina, you can still get a $200 bonus. However, you must win your first bet to see it. The best way to approach the promo is by backing a heavy favorite, given that no minimum odds requirement is attached to it. This means you can bet on something as short odds as you'd like.
For example, a good option would be to bet ahead of the Final Four matchup between Alabama and UConn. UConn is favored on the moneyline at -750 odds, and because the team has such an excellent chance of winning the game, you have an equal probability of recovering the $200 bonus.
Again, no FanDuel promo code is required to claim this offer.
DraftKings Promo in Other States

The DraftKings promo in most states requires a $5+ first bet in exchange for guaranteed $150 bonus bets. You don't have to win your first bet to claim the bonus like you do at FanDuel. However, the bonus amount is $50 less. This doesn't matter much, considering you can combine the two offers for a $350 value.
