The current BetMGM Kentucky bonus code TRIBUNEMGM gets new users in the Bluegrass State $100 on launch day.
Currently, online sports betting is slated to go live in KY on Sept. 28, so users still have some time to claim this offer.
In other BetMGM states, except NY and Washington D.C., users can claim a 20 percent deposit match of up to $1,500. Thus, a new users in those states would need to wager $7,500 total to get the full deposit match value. Use bonus code TRIB1500 for that offer.
Tons of sportsbooks offer new users some kind of welcome promotion as a way of enticing new customers. Typically, those offers are structured in one of two ways: either as First Bet Insurance promotion or as a Bet and Get offer.
This BetMGM Kentucky promotion is not exactly either but it is closer to the latter. As expected by the name, Bet and Get’s require new users to actually place a wager before they collect any bonus bets — notably, the status of that wager is irrelevant.
With this Kentucky exclusive, new users don’t actually need to place a bet, they simply need to sign up for an account with BetMGM using the bonus code TRIBUNEMGM.
The deposit match promotion is closer to the structure of a First Bet Insurance promotion with a key difference. With First Bet Insurance offers, a new user’s initial wager is required to settle as a loss for them to collect any bonus bets.
However, in this instance, a new user will get 20 percent of their deposit matched — up to $1,500 — before they even wager. As noted, since this is a 20 percent deposit match players would need to wager a total of $7,500 to get the $1,500.
New players outside of Kentucky, New York or Washington D.C. can claim this promotion by clicking the module below and deploying the bonus code TRIBUNE1500.
In addition to these two promotions, BetMGM has a standard Bet and Get offer that is available for all the same states as the deposit match promotion.
New players can click the module below and sign up for an account with the bonus code TRIBUNEGET to unlock this offer.
New users who bet at least $10 on any market will get $200 in bonus bets.
We’ll go into more detail about the current BetMGM promotions, and highlight the important sign-up conditions in the ensuing paragraphs.
BetMGM Kentucky pre-launch offer, explained
