BetRivers bonus codeBONUSBET offers a second-chance bet of up to $500, depending on which state you live in, for Week 1 of the college football season.

Everyone likes second chances, and that’s exactly what BetRivers is offering with this week’s new-user offer.

Here is how it works:

Place your first bet at BetRivers. If you win, then you’re off to a great start! Your winnings will be placed into your account and will be available to be withdrawn. If that happens, there is no bonus, but that’s OK because you’re already a winner.

If you lose your first bet, then BetRivers will award your account with a bonus bet equal to the one you lost. The maximum amount of the bonus bet will vary depending on your state. Although you cannot withdraw this bonus bet, you can use it on any other betting market offered by BetRivers.

The bonus bet will be in your account within 24 hours of when that first wager settles as a loss. Once you have it, you’ll have 30 days to use it before it expires.

Now that you’re ready to take advantage of the offer, here is how to register for your new account.

• Choose your state and fill in the other required fields.
• Enter the bonus code BONUSBET in all states except New Jersey. In New Jersey, use code BETBONUS.
• Deposit a minimum of $10.
• Wager $10 or more on a qualifying market and get the entirety of your stake back in bonuses if you lose, up to $500.

Because the maximum return varies by state, make sure you understand exactly how much you can get before you place your first wager. Click on any of our BetRivers bonus code links for full terms and conditions.
