During this point of the year, U.S. sports bettors can wager on almost every major U.S. sports league. That includes the NFL, MLB (playoffs), NCAA FB, NBA, and the NHL. Throw in access to European soccer leagues and this is the perfect time for Illinois residents to open a new sportsbook account at BetMGM. When doing so, they will earn the right to maybe claim the operator's Welcome Bonus offer. Here are a few of the key terms and conditions connected to this promo.
The current BetMGM Welcome Bonus promotion in Illinois was posted on August 29, 2023. Assuming nothing changes, the offer will remain open to new customers until February 4, 2023, at 11:59 p.m. EST. This promotion is available to IL residents who have completed the operation's registration process and continue on to make an initial cash deposit of $10 or more.
After addressing those conditions, new customers can go ahead and make their first sports bet. The bet can be on any available market with no restriction related to the final odds. If their initial bets are losing bets, new customers will become eligible to receive a 100% rebate of that first wager amount. The bonus maximum on this promo is $1,500.
All bonuses for this promo will be given as bonus bets. Bonus recipients can expect to get access to their bonus bets soon after their losing wagers have been settled. For this offer, bonus bets will be awarded in five (5) equal 20% increments. If the bonus falls under $50, the recipient will get one bonus bet token.
Bonus bet tokens must be used within the following seven (7) days. Unused tokens will expire and have to be removed with no value. Bonus bets can be used to bet on any sports market as long as the odds are -200 or higher. Net winning bonus bets are paid out with cash into the customer's account. That cash can be wagered or withdrawn at any time.
According to IL law, registering online gamblers in Illinois must meet the minimum age requirement of 21 years old when going through the registration process.
