Sports betting is live and 2020 marks the first full baseball season that Indianans can bet on America's pastime. With plenty of nearby teams to root for — Reds, Cubs, Cardinals and more — folks in the Hoosier state will have their hands full.
Getting started betting is easy, too! Anyone located inside the state can register, deposit and bet through legal online sportsbookswithout ever having to step foot inside a casino.
There are several sportsbooks available in the state, which makes shopping for the best line really easy. Below are our three favorite books available for Indianans, as well as their bonus offers for new users:
- PointsBet: Instant deposit match up to $250
- BetMGM: $500 INSTANT deposit match
- DraftKings: $1,000 sign-up bonus
Here are some more details on each…
PointsBet Sportsbook
- Offer: Instant Deposit Match up to $250

PointsBet has a number of things going for it which make it a great sportsbook for betting on baseball. First off is their instant deposit match up to $250.
There are three deposit tiers to choose from:
- Deposit $50, Bet with $150
- Deposit $150, Bet with $300
- Deposit $250, Bet with $500
First timers who only want to deposit $50 will be very pleased to see they'll get $100 more than they deposit … not bad!
Something unique to PointsBet is their "pointsbetting" option, which is a high-risk, high-reward way to bet. For example, you could pointsbet $10 on the Reds at -1 and if they won by five, you'd win $40 (5-1 x $10). If they lost by five, you'd lose $60 (-5-1 x $10). There are several ways to pointsbet on baseball, including spreads, over/unders and player props.
Last, but certainly not least, is the fact that PointsBet supports BetSync! BetSync allows Action Network users to automatically sync the bets they make at PointsBet directly to the Action app for tracking purposes, which is great for a daily sport like baseball. Sweating games and tracking your progress has never been easier!
BetMGM Sportsbook
- Offer: $500 INSTANT deposit match

Baseball's a fairly high-volume sport, which means you could be putting several units in play per night. In those situations, you want as much in your bankroll as possible to stay afloat in case of a losing streak.
BetMGM makes that easy with their $500 instant deposit match. You deposit $10, they give you $10 in bonus funds. You deposit $500, you get $500 in bonus funds. And everything in between.
Turning these bonuses into cash is easy, too, thanks to the measly 2x rollover required. With so many different ways to bet on America's pastime, that won't take too long to achieve.
DraftKings Sportsbook
- Offer: $1,000 sign-up bonus
- Claim now:Click here
DraftKings is one of the most well-known brands in the industry, and they also offer the largest potential bonus for new users — a thousand bucks, otherwise known as a dime in the biz.
The first $500 comes in the form of a first bet match. Similar to a deposit match, DraftKings will match the size of the first bet you make in free bets. For example, if you bet $100 on a Wrigley Field under when the wind is blowing in, you'll get $100 in free bets.
The second $500 portion comes in the form of a deposit match. Check out the full details for DraftKings’ bonus offer here.
