FanDuel promo code unlocks $150 in bonus bets for NBA Friday, all weekend

The latest FanDuel promo code creates a generous offer for new users -- just bet $5 on anything, and you’ll get $150 in bonus bets no matter the result of your first wager. This offer applies to new users in Illinois and every other FanDuel state.

While the $150 seems lower than most other sportsbook offers, those “$1,000 offers” are usually a first bet on the house. That means you can get up to $1k in bonus bets back if your first wager loses -- not that you get them just for signing up.

Every FanDuel state now has the bet $5, get $150 deal live. We will outline the nature of this offer more below, highlight the relevant conditions and preview some of the best bets for the NBA’s play-in tournament on Friday.

Just use this link or click the module below to get started at FanDuel.

This promotion, which is valid in every legal FanDuel state, is a bit different from other new user offers. As opposed to many other welcome offers that give users some insurance on their first bet, this promotion gives new users $150 in bonus bets regardless of whether their first bet wins or losses, as soon as they place their qualifying wager.

After a new user places their qualifying wager, they’ll get $150 in bonus bets that can be used for any additional wager on the platform. Critically though, bonus bets cannot be withdrawn or cashed out.

In other words, if a new user places a $100 bonus bet on the White Sox at +110 against the Orioles and the Sox win, the user will pocket $110. This is because users will keep their winnings from a successful wager but will not get their bonus bet stake back.

This promotion does not require a promo code, so new users can claim this offer by simply clicking the module above and inputting the relevant information. Critically though, this promotion is limited to new customers who are at least 21 years old.

Chicago Bulls vs. Miami Heat

The Bulls face off against the Heat in Miami for a win-or-go-home play-in matchup on TNT Friday night.

The winner of this one will square off against the Bucks for a first-round series.

Chicago has all the momentum as they come into this one in the wake of a 19-point comeback victory over Toronto on Wednesday. Meanwhile, the Heat suffered a surprising loss at home against the Hawks on Tuesday night.

That home loss was virtually all Atlanta. The Hawks jumped out to a nine-point lead to end the first quarter and kept the pressure on throughout. Miami controlled the turnover battle, forcing Atlanta into 12 turnovers throughout the game, but got absolutely demolished in the key, giving up 64 points in the paint and 22 offensive rebounds.

This is especially glaring for a couple reasons. First, the Heat have been very bad at defending within the arc this year, which is a bit surprising given the team’s defensive prowess overall. Conversely, the Bulls finished in the top five percentage for two-point shots.

Adding insult to injury for Miami, Chicago has multiple defenders who match up well with Jimmy Butler. Alex Caruso and Patrick Beverly are physical defenders who can disrupt Butler’s offensive flow.

Additionally, the Heat have been on a downswing since the All-Star break, with a 12-11 record since the break.

During that same period, the Bulls were 14-9 and posted the league’s second-best two-point field goal percentage.

Overall, Miami is a 5.5-point favorite here which is pretty generous given how they’ve played lately and the matchups here. With that in mind, back the Bulls to cover that as they ride the comeback momentum into the playoffs.

Prior to signing up with FanDuel, new users should review the relevant conditions outlined below to get the most out of this new customer offer.

First, since this promotion is limited to new customers who are at least 21 years old, the initial step to claim this promotion is to sign up for a FanDuel Sportsbook account by clicking the module above.

Second, new users need to deposit at least $10 into their newly created account and place a $5 wager. Only real-money wagers will qualify for this promotion as any wagers placed with credits or other bonus bets will not initiate this offer.

As soon as users place their qualifying wager, their account will be credited with $150 in bonus bets.

Bonus bets can be used for any additional wager on the FanDuel platform but cannot be withdrawn or cashed out. As noted above, if a new user’s bonus bet wager does hit they will collect their winnings but will not get their bonus bet stake returned.

Any bonus bets earned will remain valid for up to seven days after distribution.
