3 Vermont Sports Betting Sign-Up Promos & Bonus Offers from DraftKings, FanDuel & Fanatics Total $600 Value

Thursday marks the official launch of legal online sports betting in the state of Vermont.

Several of the nation's best sportsbooks have begun operations in The Green Mountain State while offering new user sign-up offers for bonus value. If you've already signed up for any of these sportsbooks in other states, you'll just login using the sam credentials, but you won't be eligible for the sign-up bonus. And you can't create multiple accounts, since each account is tied to your identity.

We've compiled the top three launch offers from the state's first three operators: FanDuel, Fanatics Sportsbook and DraftKings. You can use these offers to score bonus value on Thursday's betting board, which conveniently includes action for both ongoing, in-market pro teams in the Boston Celtics and Boston Bruins plus Vermont Catamounts men's basketball. Although most bonus bets expire quickly (seven days at FanDuel, for example), you can use them this weekend, too.

Best Sports Betting Promos for Vermont Launch

1. FanDuel Sportsbook

Offer: Bet $5, Get $200 in Bonus Bets Guaranteed

FanDuel Sportsbook is launching in Vermont with a traditional "bet/get" welcome offer. This will access $200 in bonus value after your first bet of $5 or greater has settled.

Use this module to get started:

There is no actual promo code needed to activate this offer. You can start sign up by using the module we've provided in this article.

An example of this offer would be if you placed $10 on Bruins Puck Line at +205 odds against the Vegas Golden Knights:

• If the Bruins win buy two goals or more, you would get a $30.50 payout plus $200 in bonus bets.
• If the Bruins win by one goal or lose the game, you would still get $200 in bonus bets — just no payout included.

You must use bonus bets within 30 days after receipt at FanDuel, otherwise they will expire. You cannot withdraw bonus bets and they are not kept after using them to place a wager — even if your bonus bet wins.

The best way to maximize value on bonus value at FanDuel — or any sportsbook for that matter — is by placing them on tight markets in the +300 to +500 odds range. A tight market is where a sportsbook offers two sides to the bet i.e. -440 favorite and -330 dog.

So for example, if you placed $100 in bonus bets on Bruins Puck Line at +205, you would net a $205 total payout if they cover. If not, you net $0. The difference between this and real money is $100 out of pocket on this would net a $305 payout because your stake is coming back.

How to Sign Up at FanDuel

• Click here to visit FanDuel. Navigate to “Bet Now” in the middle of the page, and select your state.
• Enter all the pertinent details needed: email, username, password, legal name, date of birth, home address, last four digits of your SSN (this is used to verify your identity, which is necessary to hook up a bank account or other deposit method).
• Confirm your age and eligibility. You must be 21, even in Kentucky, where sports betting is 18+ by law.
• Deposit and make a $5 bet.

2. Fanatics Sportsbook

Offer: Bet $10, get $40 each day for five days ($200 total)

Vermont is the ninth state that Fanatics Sportsbook will be live in. Since Fanatics is also an apparel site aside from its sportsbook, it is offering enough FanCash to buy an official jersey in return for a first bet of $10 or more.

Like FanDuel's offer, you won't need an official promo code to type in at sign-up. Use the module to begin the sign-up process.

FanCash translates to 1-1 dollar value on the Fanatics apparel website. So once this first bet offer is placed, it will activate the availability to claim the jersey.

Fanatics is adding more and more states by the month, including Fanatics Sportsbook Kentucky.

How to Sign Up at Fanatics

• Click here to activate the offer
• Navigate to the registration/signup section of the page
• Enter the required account information (i.e., Name, Address, Username, Password, Email Address, etc.)
• Verify your identity (i.e., Last 4 of your SSN, ID picture, etc.)
• Agree to terms and conditions
• Deposit and claim the welcome offer using the Fanatics Sportsbook promo code

3. DraftKings Sportsbook

Offer: Bet $5, Get $200 in Bonus Bets Instantly (no code needed)

DraftKings is running a similar new-user Vermont launch offer to FanDuel. You will get $200 worth of bonus bets right after depositing and placing a minimum first bet of $5 on the site. You don't need a code or link; just sign up.

The $200 will be given in eight, $25 bonus bets, which expire within seven days of receiving at DraftKings. If you claimed the DraftKings Vermont pre-reg offer for $200, you will not be able to also use this one.

DraftKings is also featuring an odds boost for Thursday's Celtics-Bucks matchup and Saturday's Browns-Texans Wild Card game — the maximum bets may vary by user, but you can get up to $100 extra in cash (assuming there's a single point scored in these games, of course).

• If (and when) Boston scores a point against Milwaukee, users who opt in will get a +100 odds boost token.
• You can also double your money if (and when) a point is scored in Browns-Texans on Saturday.

Boost tokens are for single use and are only applied to winnings. The token must be selected before placing your bet.
