UFC 287 is packing a punch with 12 fights Saturday, April 8, in Miami, and first-time customers using BetMGM bonus code OLBONUS can get up to $1,000 back in bonuses if their initial bet on the card fails to cash.

There are a variety of online sportsbook promo offers to choose from, but BetMGM features one of the best, effectively covering the first bet if it misses.

Register your new account at the King of Sportsbooks, deposit at least $10, and place your initial wager of $10 or more on Saturday’s UFC 287 slate.

If that bet comes through, enjoy the profits linked to the bet. But if the initial bet comes up short, BetMGM will refund your stake — in the form of bonus bets — up to the maximum of $1,000.

Getting signed up and betting only requires a few quick steps:

• Click our BetMGM bonus code link and hit Register.
• Fill in all required fields to register, including code OLBONUS. If you click our link, it will already be there.
• Deposit at least $10 via your preferred method.
• Bet $10 or more on UFC 287 with your first wager. If it misses, your losses are matched in bonus bets up to $1,000 to try again.

If awarded and your initial stake was $50 or more, the bonus bets will be paid out in five equal 20% increments. If your first wager were $49 or less, you’d receive one bonus bet matching your stake.

Bonus bets will be credited to your account within 24 hours of your initial bet loss. They will be good for seven days on any event on BetMGM Sportsbook’s extensive menu.

Just click one of our BetMGM bonus code links to view the complete promo terms and conditions.

On April 8, the UFC 287 undercard bouts get underway on ESPN+ at 6 p.m. ET from Miami-Dade Arena.

Gilbert Burns (21-5) and George Masvidal (35-16), both ranked in the top 10, highlight the prelim bouts with their welterweight showdown.

Soon after comes the night’s headliner: The middleweight title rematch between Alex Pereira (7-1) and Israel Adesanya (23-2). It will be the fourth meeting between the former pro kickboxers and their second UFC clash after Pereira won by knockout last November to wrest the title away from Adesanya.

The Nigerian is favored to win it back, as Adesanya was listed as a -135 favorite on the midweek BetMGM board. Pereira, meanwhile, was listed as a +110 underdog.

The perks of being a BetMGM bettor don’t end there, as the highly-rated sportsbook features an impressive array of year-round boosts, benefits, and bonuses.
