The operator is leveraging a low-entry $5 wager requirement to attract new customers ahead of a Monday MLB slate.
DraftKings has launched a promotional offer for new users that provides $150 in bonus bets following an initial wager of $5 or more, according to reporting from CBS Sports.
The promotion coincides with a Monday MLB schedule featuring matchups between the Washington Nationals and Toronto Blue Jays, the Cincinnati Reds and Cleveland Guardians, and the Chicago White Sox and New York Yankees. CBS Sports noted that combining specific picks for these games—including a C.J. Abrams over 1.5 total bases prop, a Cincinnati -1.5 spread, and a Chicago +1.5 spread—into a parlay at DraftKings would result in a payout of +599, risking $100 to profit $599.
This "bet-and-get" style incentive is part of a broader competitive landscape among national sportsbook brands. As detailed by CBS Sports, other current market offers include a "Bet $20, Get $100" promotion from Borgata Sportsbook for New Jersey residents, a $150 bonus bet offer from bet365 for a $10 wager, and a "first bet offer" from BetMGM that returns up to $1,500 in bonus bets if the initial wager loses.
