BetMGM recently launched in North Carolina among other top sports betting sites and provides new customers with a welcome promo. You can use the BetMGM NC bonus code NYPNEWS with a $5 bet to instantly earn $150 in bonus bets.
All other BetMGM sports betting states have the choice between two other introductory promos:
NYPNEWS1600 — 20% deposit match up to $1,600 in sports bonus
You’ll trigger the bonus starting with at least a $10 deposit, earning the minimum $2 in bonus up to a maximum $1,600 bonus with an $8,000 deposit. As long as it’s $10+, it’s entirely up to you on how much to deposit.
Also, this promo is unique with no first bet required to start earning the sports bonus. However, BetMGM has a few requirements to navigate once you make the deposit.
You’ll need to bet 10x the bonus earned in total cash bets within 30 days to access any cash winnings in your account.
NYPNEWS — First bet on the house if it misses up to $1,500 in bonus bets
This works as a first bet insurance offer and is currently the highest first bet insurance you’ll find among top sports betting sites.
Make sure to make at least a $10 deposit and a cash bet of any size on anything to qualify. If your bet wins, you can’t earn the bonus but profit cash and keep your stake.
If you’re located in New York, unfortunately you are excluded from any BetMGM welcome offers.
What can I bet on Thursday with BetMGM?
Thursday marks the start of the Sweet Sixteen round with four games starting at 7:09p.m. ET. This is one of the most exciting times of the year with basketball almost every day, hockey closing in on the playoffs and a multitude of other sports available.
One of the games that could be advantageous for the North Carolina offer specifically is UConn vs. San Diego State. While the moneyline may not provide that much value, we can bet on any market or odds to earn the $150 bonus.
BetMGM bonus codes by location
North Carolina — NYPNEWS
The North Carolina promo is extremely easy to navigate and is one of two offers in North Carolina that earn the bonus bets instantly. Let’s say I bet $10 on UConn -11 (-114).
First, the bet alone earns $150 of bonus bets. Next, depending on how your bet plays out, you can profit cash that can be withdrawn or used on another wager.

The deposit match can get tricky for new bettors. Imagine you made a $100 deposit which would earn $20 in sports bonus.
- The $20 bonus is valid for seven days and must be used to fund a wager
- Next, you’ll need to wager $200 in total cash bets within 30 days to meet the 10x betting requirement. Otherwise, you cannot access your cash winnings from your account.
NYPNEWS
Finally, the first bet insurance is easy to activate and the promo depends on the outcome of your first bet.
If I bet $500 on Illinois +104 and it hit, I profit $520 and keep my $500 stake. I now have $1,020 in my account which can be withdrawn or used on another wager.
A miss means BetMGM would deposit $500 in total bonus bets to recoup my stake loss. These bonus bets are valid for seven days and can profit cash if you win a bonus bet wager.
Must be 21+ and present in North Carolina. Full T&C apply. Gambling problem? Call 877-718-5543 or visit morethanagame.nc.gov
