BetMGM Bonus Code

BetMGM Sportsbook Bonus Details

New customers can use the latest BetMGM bonus code BUSABONUS when signing up for accounts to get up to $1,500 in bonus bets if their first wager doesn’t win.

Unlike many online betting bonuses, the BetMGM welcome offer has zero wagering requirements. That means bettors may immediately withdraw any winnings from their bonus bets with no further obligations.

Claiming the offer is straightforward:

• Sign up for an account with the bonus code BUSABONUS
• Make a first deposit of $10 or more
• Place your first wager on any sport
• If your first wager loses, you will receive a refund paid as bonus bets worth up to $1,500
• If your first wager wins, BetMGM will pay your winnings as normal, and the promotion ends there

The size of your first wager determines whether you receive a single-use bonus bet or five bonus bets of equal value:

• If your first bet is less than $50 and loses: BetMGM will issue the refund as a single-use bonus bet.
• If your first bet is $50 or greater and loses: BetMGM will issue the refund as five bonus bets, each worth 20% of the losing wager.

Other BetMGM Sports Betting Promotions

BetMGM boasts higher than average promotional volume, with regular offers for new and existing customers alike. BetMGM promo offers change frequently, but the following examples show the types of offers users can expect:

• Money Mondays: BetMGM Sportsbook users who bet $50 or more during the week receive a $10 bonus bet the following Monday.
• Get $3 for Every Three-Pointer: Place a $50 wager on the NBA Finals and receive $3 in BetMGM bonus bets for every three-pointer scored by select key players.

• Bet $10 Get $10: BetMGM gives $10 to every customer who bets $10 on any sport during the promotional period.
• Golf Betting Mulligan: Betting on any golfer to win qualifies for a refund worth up to $25 in BetMGM bonus bets if their selection loses (but still places in the top five).
• Hit the Cycle MLB Challenge: Bettors could “run the bases” in this promo by completing four consecutive missions, with a reward for each. The promo began with customers placing a $10 moneyline wager on any MLB game for a parlay boost token and ended with them placing a $10+ live MLB bet to receive a $10 bonus bet.
• Hometown Super Boosts: BetMGM often promotes its partnerships with professional teams through super boosts for hometown teams for customers in select states. For example, BetMGM recently issued 50% odds boost tokens to customers located in any state where it has an official NFL team partnership.
• Super Bowl Offers: Each year, BetMGM invites customers to bet on the Super Bowl with bonus bets, enhanced parlay payouts, and more. Some Super Bowl promotions include no-brainer odds boosts, like getting 20-1 on either team to score a touchdown.
• March Madness Offers: BetMGM offers numerous college basketball betting promotions to celebrate March Madness. BetMGM March Madness offers vary every year, but some popular past offers included a no-brainer “bet $10 to win $200” if any team hit a 3-pointer or a simple “bet $10 to get $160” just for wagering on any team during the first round.

BetMGM Rewards Program

All BetMGM customers become automatic MGM Rewards members upon registration. MGM Rewards is the official loyalty program of MGM Resorts and BetMGM Sportsbook.

As MGM Rewards members, BetMGM customers enjoy benefits including custom bonus offers, dedicated betting windows at BetMGM sportsbooks, hotel comps, birthday and betting anniversary bonus bets, and more.

The value of BetMGM Rewards perks varies based on each customer’s activity level. The more bets a customer places, the better the rewards.

Overall, the BetMGM Sportsbook rewards program offers a lot to like. Converting BetMGM Rewards Points to bonuses offers slightly above average cashback equivalence rates, but all the additional perks elevate MGM Rewards above most sportsbook loyalty programs.

BetMGM Refer A Friend Program

Bettors who invite their friends and family to join BetMGM Sportsbook can receive a $50 referral bonus.

The steps required to claim the BetMGM referral bonus are as follows:

1. The referrer provides a personal link to their friend.
2. The friend clicks on the link and accepts and BetMGM Refer A Friend terms and conditions.
3. Within 30 days, the friend must sign-up for a BetMGM account. This can be done through the desktop app, or by first downloading and installing the BetMGM app, and registering via mobile.
4. The friend must make an initial deposit, and place at least $50 worth of wagers within 30 days.

There are a couple of additional requirements bettors should be aware of:

First, only wagers with odds of -200 or greater count toward the $50 wagering requirement. Secondly, wagering on both sides of a game will disqualify users from receiving the bonus.

Once the rollover requirement is met, both the referrer and the friend will receive a $50 bonus, subject to a 1x wagering requirement before it converts to cash.

Bettors have 30 days to meet this condition, which we find reasonable.

Note: Bettors are capped at referring up to 20 friends, a significantly higher cap than competing sportsbooks.

BetMGM Deposit Methods

Notes:

• BetMGM offers branded gift cards that customers can purchase in person from thousands of retailers. Bettors can buy BetMGM gift cards in increments of $25 or $50 and receive a $10 bonus with every purchase.
• BetMGM offers free wire transfers (although your bank may charge a separate fee) for deposits and withdrawals. The minimum BetMGM wire transfer deposit is $1,000.

• Online banking by Trustly: Up to $25,000 per transaction

How to Withdraw from BetMGM

To withdraw funds from BetMGM Sportsbook, go to My Account -> Cashier -> Withdraw. Bettors can check their withdrawable balance under the My Balance menu.

Note: customers with active bonuses may not be able to withdraw part or all of their funds until the bonus wagering requirements have been fulfilled.

BetMGM Sportsbook withdrawal options include:

• VIP Preferred
• PayPal
• Online banking
• Cash at the casino cage
• Checks by mail
• Wire Transfer

The minimum BetMGM withdrawal amount is $10, except for checks by mail ($500 minimum) and wire transfers ($1,000 minimum).

PayPal is probably the quickest BetMGM withdrawal method, with funds hitting player accounts in one business day. Online banking and VIP Preferred transactions aren’t far behind, averaging 2-3 day turnarounds.

Paper checks take 7-20 business days to process and should only be used as a last resort.

BetMGM Sports Betting Markets

BetMGM offers a full range of sports betting markets, including all the major pro leagues plus college sports, motor racing, tennis, golf, boxing, MMA, and more.

The types of bets BetMGM offers are similarly diverse.

BetMGM Sportsbook accepts standard wagers including point spreads and money lines, over/under points totals, futures, parlays, same game parlays, same game parlay+ wagers, teasers, and propositions.

Users can also bet on most major sports events live in-play.

For context, the BetMGM NFL betting menu alone includes:

• 450+ betting markets per game
• In-play betting for every NFL game
• Roughly 1,000 NFL futures in total
• Super Bowl futures, division champions, exact conference rankings, player awards, player season-long stat totals, team season totals, and much more

BetMGM’s pregame odds are average compared to other online sportsbooks. BetMGM sometimes has the best odds on the market, but not consistently enough to be considered anything other than an average sportsbook in that regard.

However, its in-game betting odds are always competitive and are frequently the best among all major sportsbooks.

BetMGM Boosted Bets

Visit the “boosted bets” menu to view wagers BetMGM has temporarily price-boosted.

For example, a recent set of boosted odds wagers improved an NHL prop bet from +400 to +500, a soccer future from +160 to +220, another soccer future from +450 to +550, and a golf proposition from +8,000 to +10,000.

Odds boosts at BetMGM can provide significant value to bettors.

BetMGM Easy Parlays

BetMGM has the most efficient parlay building interface on the market thanks to frequent ease-of-use refinements.

Bettors can build parlays from anywhere on the BetMGM app or website by selecting wagers and adding them to the betting slip or via two specialized tools for standard parlays and same game parlays (SGPs).

BetMGM Same Game Parlays Tool

When viewing any major professional sports league’s upcoming games, bettors can hit the “Build Parlay” button under any game listing to open BetMGM’s SGP/SGP+ assistant without leaving the current screen. Instead, a pop-up appears with a list of popular game lines and props from that one game.

Bettors can use the tool to build SGPs quickly and place the bet right there (no need to revisit the betting slip) or save the current selections and add more legs from another game to build an SGP+.

The BetMGM SGP tool is available on mobile and desktop.

BetMGM Easy Parlay Builder

BetMGM’s Easy Parlay builder significantly streamlines the process of placing simple, multi-game/multi-sport parlays. Selecting the Easy Parlay option opens a screen displaying all upcoming games for a particular league and the current odds for each game’s spread, point total, or moneyline.

Switching between the spread, total, or moneyline automatically switches all games to that wager format, so users can compare the odds across every game and add legs to the parlay. For example, bettors can compare the point totals across all upcoming NFL games with two clicks and begin adding legs.

The Easy Parlay tool is especially handy for building larger parlays because bettors can add multiple legs from a single screen instead of clicking back and forth between different games to add legs. The Easy Parlay tool currently supports five leagues:

• NFL
• NBA
• NHL
• College Football
• Soccer

Bettors can find the tool nestled within the main sports menu on the BetMGM website only. The Easy Parlay tool is not yet available on the BetMGM app.

BetMGM App Review

The BetMGM app uses an intuitive mobile betting layout familiar to experienced bettors.

Upon launching the app and logging in, users land on a homepage that lists daily promotions, trending games, and navigation menus for specific sports or leagues.

From the homepage, users can quickly place bets on featured games or view betting lines for specific sports, visit the in-play betting area, see outstanding wagers, and browse the latest BetMGM promotions.

Frequent app updates have incrementally streamlined the user experience, resulting in a highly navigable app despite its wealth of features, markets, and betting tools.

Just a few examples include:

• Search field at the top of every page to find specific teams, players, and events
• Ability to build parlays, same-game parlays, and SGP+ wagers from any page on the app
• Prioritizing popular wagers and each user’s favored bet types on every page
• Live bet tracking to see how your bet is doing in real time, all the time

Overall, BetMGM online sportsbook is a high-quality sports betting app, although we’d like to see more competitive betting odds.

BetMGM In-Play Betting

BetMGM boasts a well-rounded in-play betting platform that ranks above average in several key areas:

• League Coverage: BetMGM offers live betting on a huge number of sporting events daily, spanning all major US sports and dozens of niche international leagues
• In-Play Vigorish: BetMGM’s in-play vigorish varies wildly, but it’s always at least average. However, it surpasses nearly every other online sportsbook on select in-play markets and frequently offers some of the best in-game NFL moneylines bettors will find anywhere.
• Live-Streaming Sports: Bettors can watch live sports streams as they bet on an ever-growing list of leagues, including select MLB, NBA, and NHL games, high-level tennis matches, soccer games, table tennis, darts, and more.

Additionally, BetMGM regularly introduces new in-play betting features and capabilities. For example, BetMGM’s partnership with IMG Arena brought live-streaming of PGA Tour events to customers and introduced extremely granular, shot-by-shot microbetting markets.

BetMGM Sportsbook Customer Service

BetMGM has built an enormous support database and helpful FAQ section where bettors can find answers to the most commonly asked questions, even if it is occasionally outdated.

Access the main support center at My Account -> Support -> Search Help.

There, BetMGM provides the answers to hundreds of frequently asked questions. Everything from personal data, house rules, geolocation, and payment methods are covered in detail.

Bettors can find the BetMGM FAQ section at (My Account -> Support -> FAQ).

Despite the convenience of BetMGM’s support center, sometimes bettors need the assistance of a real person.

BetMGM live customer service options include 24/7 Live Chat, email support, and varying amounts of phone support.

Unfortunately, the BetMGM customer service department uses a different contact email and phone number in each state.

Accessing live BetMGM customer support can be cumbersome. Bettors must first visit the FAQ section, answer questions, and then click “Yes” to the “More Help?” question.

Only then, will they find direct BetMGM support contact information.

BetMGM email support response times can also be frustratingly slow, although it seems to be improving.

A recent support query of ours was adequately answered within 24 hours, while other requests required multiple responses to get clear and direct answers.

BetMGM live chat agents don’t seem to have an in-depth knowledge of the BetMGM product, which is troublesome but unfortunately common in the industry.

Queue and response times are often long, even during off-peak hours. Phone support is better, but isn’t accessible 24/7.

Given the number of quirks with BetMGM software, a large, knowledgeable support team is needed. Sadly, we think there is still room for improvement.

Notable BetMGM Sportsbook Partnerships

BetMGM and Buffalo Wild Wings

BetMGM partnered with Buffalo Wild Wings to bring fans the best aspects of online betting and watching games in person with friends.

The BMGM-Buffalo Wild Wing partnership invites fans to download the Blazin’ Rewards App to participate in pick ’em predictions contests whenever they visit a BWW location.

Once entered, contestants make predictions on the spread, point total, and so on for the day’s games for real money prizes.

BetMGM and X

BetMGM secured a major partnership in 2024 when it reached to deliver live sports betting odds to one of the world’s largest social media platforms.

X is home to a massive sports betting community, so this partnership has the potential to be massively beneficial to BetMGM as X expands its live-streaming video and communication capabilities.
