FanDuel Promo Code Offers $100 for Giants-Cowboys on MNF

FanDuel Sportsbook's latest promo code gets new users $100 in free bets — an offer exclusive to Action Network.

This offer is better than the $1,000 no-sweat bet, and we'll explain why below.

Just wager at least $1 on Giants–Cowboys and you'll receive $100 in free bets.

New users can follow these steps to claim:

• Sign up with this link (no promo code needed)
• Deposit at least $10
• Make your first bet with $1 or more.
• If the bet wins, you keep the stake and winnings.
• If it loses, you'll get free bets back that equals the size of your first bet (and you'll have 14 days to use those free bets).

How FanDuel Promo Codes & Free Bets Work

These sportsbooks promotions can start to become confusing. We've got a helpful guide for you to use as reference before signing up and betting at any sportsbook.

As far as this promo works, here's the alternative scenarios:

• You deposit $25 and bet $25 on the Cowboys alternate spread -6.5, which is set at +220.
• If it wins, you keep the $25, plus the $55 in winnings, plus the $100 in free bets.
• If it loses, you'll still get the $100 in free bets.
• If you win those free bets, it turns into cash, but you don't keep the free bets.
• If those free bets lose, you end up with nothing.

So, there is risk involved here, which is why sportsbooks are moving away from using "risk-free" language with their offers. At the end of the day, you can lose your deposit if the free bets you are granted don't work out.

"Free bets" are bets that can be placed on anything but not withdrawn as cash. You must win your wager with them to withdraw the profits, but not the original free bet money.

Suppose the Cowboys don't cover — you still get $100 back in free bets. You then place it all on Dolphinsmoneyline against the Bengals on Thursday, which is at +132 as of Monday afternoon.

(You don't have to bet the whole $100 altogether, but we will in this example just for simplicity's sake).

• If the Dolphins win: You profit $132 (but you don't keep the $100 free bet)
• If the Dolphins lose: You end up with nothing

If the Dolphins win, now on a $25 deposit, you've profited $132 if you lost your original bet on the Cowboys tonight, then hit the $100 free bet at +132.

3. Deposit using a bank account, credit card, or PayPal

How to Use Your FanDuel Sportsbook Promo Code Bonus

The rule of thumb is this: the higher the line, the more expected value you're seeing. Taking advantage of free bets from promo codes always starts with betting on anything that's plus money — +150, +350, etc.

Here are some factors to consider before placing bets tonight:

• Stuckey previews why offensive fireworks are not expected at MetLife Stadium tonight.
• 3 player props from our Action Labs projections tool.
• Why Richie James is Sean Koerner's favorite prop bet in this matchup.
