Sports betting is LIVE in Pennsylvania — one of the best sports states in the country. Pennsylvanians are avid about their baseball teams, too. Luckily, they can now bet on them with ease!
Anyone located inside the state can register, deposit and bet through legal online sportsbookswithout ever having to step foot inside a casino.
For folks just getting started, 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 Pennsylvanians, as well as their bonus offers for new users:
- Parx: 20% Profit Boost + $500 Risk-Free Bet
- DraftKings: $1,000 sign-up bonus
- FanDuel: First bet risk-free up to $500
Here are some more details on each…
Parx Sportsbook
- Offer: 20% Profit Boost + $500 Risk-Free Bet

Clicking this link will opt you in to Parx's staple offer, a $500 risk-free bet with a 20% profit boost attached to it.
Here's how it works: If you bet $500 on the Phillies to win the NL East at +300, you'd normally win $1,500. With the 20% profit boost, you'd win $1,800 ($1,500 + an additional 20%).
If they don't end up winning the NL East, you'd get your $500 bet refunded. Parx also requires just a one-time rollover on the bet before you can withdraw your profits as cash, which is quite low compared to other books.
Parx bettors with an Action Network account also get access to BetSync! Any time you place a bet through Parx, it will automatically sync 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!
DraftKings Sportsbook
- Offer: $1,000 sign-up bonus

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 Pirates moneyline, you'd get $100 worth of free bets.
The second $500 portion comes in the form of a deposit match. Check out the full details for DraftKings’ bonus offer here.
FanDuel Sportsbook

Those of you just getting started betting might have some butterflies in your stomach when making your first bet. Well, those butterflies will be silenced thanks to FanDuel's risk-free bet up to $500.
How does it work? Well, if you win your first bet, no worries. If you lose, you'll get however much you bet in the form of free bets, which need to be rolled over only 1x.
There are a few strategies bettors can use with this. For example, you could use it like a lottery ticket and bet on something with some serious risk (the Phillies to win the World Series, for example). You could make a normal bet like a moneyline or over/under with close to even odds. Or, you could bet an uncomfortable amount of money on a big favorite. Normally if it lost, you'd be in big trouble, but with this you can recoup your losses.
