Fanatics Sportsbook promo code: MA, MD, OH and TN users get $200 for any MLB game, other sporting event

Fanatics, the well-known sports apparel company is sliding head first into the American sports betting market with the new Fanatics Sportsbook app.

Currently, Fanatics Sportsbook is available in four states: Massachusetts, Maryland, Ohio and Tennessee. Users in any of those four states can claim $200 in bonus bets with a $5 cash wager and since no promo code is required for this offer, new players can easily sign up by clicking one of the modules displayed below.

Despite the somewhat limited distribution currently, Fanatics Sportsbook is slated to expand into multiple other states in the wake of a massive acquisition deal with the Australian company, PointsBet. Fanatics is slated to start taking over the licenses of PointsBet U.S. states near the end of August.

That deal would give them access to New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Michigan at some point in the next 8-12 months. Additionally, Fanatics would be able to utilize the existing licenses that PointsBet U.S. had in place, including in Illinois.

Since this is a Bet and Get promotion, new users will get $200 in bonus bets as soon as their $5 qualifying wager settles.

Instead of deploying a promo code, new desktop users will be asked to complete a brief survey before downloading the app. Mobile users will not be asked to complete the survey.

We’ll elaborate a bit more on the nature of this promotion and highlight the critical sign-up conditions in the paragraphs below.

The Fanatics Sportsbook offer, which is structured as a Bet and Get promotion, is currently only available for users in Massachusetts, Maryland, Ohio or Tennessee. As noted though, that could change by the end of this calendar year.

In the meantime, users visiting or living in those states can claim this offer by clicking any of the modules displayed throughout this piece. There is actual promo code required for this promotion.

Desktop users will be asked to complete a brief survey before downloading the app, but mobile users will not.

This Bet and Get promotion will give new users $200 in bonus bets with just a $5 qualifying wager. Since this is a Bet and Get offer, a new user could potentially win their first wager and collect $200 in bonus bets.

Any bonus bets earned from will generally be valid for seven days after distribution and cannot be withdrawn without being wagered first.

While the initial deadline for this promotion was Aug. 3, it has been extended to the end of the month so users have the another two weeks to claim this offer.

So, if a new user in Maryland places a $250 cash wager on the White Sox at +137 against the Cubs and the Sox win, that user would collect $342.50 in profit, keep their $250 stake and collect another $200 in bonus bets that can be used for any additional wager.

If that same initial $250 cash wager went south, meaning the Cubs won, that user wouldn’t get any profit or keep their stake but they would still get $200 in bonus bets.

Thus, even with a loss a new user would still be in a good position for another wager.

As expected, only cash wagers will trigger this promotion and any bets placed with existing credits will not qualify.

As mentioned above, the sign-up process with Fanatics Sportsbook is a bit different. We’ll outline the sign-up process and highlight the key distinctions from other books below.

First and foremost, this promotion is limited to new customers who are at least 21 years old and present in one of the four legal Fanatics Sportsbook states. While bettors do not need to be a resident of that state, they must be within state limits which the book will verify using geolocation data.

If users meet all of those criteria, they can click any of the modules throughout this piece and input the relevant information to sign up for an account with Fanatics.

At this point, desktop users will be asked to complete a brief survey. Mobile users will not need to complete this survey.

Following that, new users will need to verify their account and place a $5 cash wager to initiate this promotion.

Once that wager settles, regardless of how it settles, new users will get $200 in bonus bets.

Bonus bets earned from this promotion can be used for any additional wager on Fanatics Sportsbook but cannot be withdrawn or cashed out without being wagered first. Similarly, bonus bets are only valid for one wager a piece and thus will not be returned in the event of a successful wager.

Typically, any bonus bets earned from this promotion will be distributed to a new user’s account within 72 hours and will remain valid for up to seven days after distribution.
