"FanDuel Offers $100 to Ohio Sports Bettors via Promotional Code"
As the college football season reaches its climax, sports betting enthusiasts in Ohio are getting ready for the launch of FanDuel Sportsbook on January 1, 2023. To celebrate the upcoming arrival, FanDuel is offering a special welcome bonus for new users in the state.
FanDuel Sportsbook Pre-Registration Bonus for Ohio Residents
New customers in Ohio can take advantage of FanDuel Sportsbook's pre-registration offer, which grants $100 in free bets upon account opening. To claim this bonus, simply sign up using a specific link and complete the registration process. The free bets will be credited to your account upon launch, and they will expire 30 days after account opening.
MACtion Highlights
In the ongoing MACtion, several teams are making headlines. Ohio, led by electric quarterback Kurtis Rourke, has been on a roll, beating four straight MAC opponents and covering in all five MAC games. With 16 to 1 odds to win the MAC, a win tonight would put them in the driver's seat to make an appearance at Ford Field for a conference title.
Meanwhile, Toledo and Ball State are the top two teams on the MAC West side, but Dequan Finn's status is uncertain for tonight's game against Ball State. On the other side of the conference, Eastern Michigan is playing against Akron tonight. Despite a 1-8 record, Akron has been competitive in several games this season, and DJ Irons' strong performance as their quarterback (averaging 279 yards per game through the air) could pose a challenge to Eastern Michigan.
Akron's ground game, however, has been struggling, ranking second to last in FBS for rushing offense. This could be an opportunity for Eastern Michigan, who has been bowl-eligible for the fourth time in the last five seasons.
Ohio's Defensive Struggles and Miami (OH)'s Changing Expectations
On the defensive side, Ohio allows 31 points per game. This could potentially open up opportunities for teams looking to score against them.
In the MAC East, Miami (OH) was the preseason favorite to win the division, but expectations for this season have changed due to an injury to preseason All-MAC quarterback Brett Gabbert. Despite this, Gabbert has returned to the lineup for the last two weeks, which could impact their performance moving forward.
FanDuel Sportsbook's Standard No Sweat First Bet Offer
New players also qualify for FanDuel's standard $1K No Sweat First Bet offer. To qualify, just sign up, deposit, and place your first eligible bet. If you win, you receive your winnings in cash as usual. If you lose, you receive bonus bets equal to your stake, up to the maximum specified by the offer. Bonus bets must be used within seven days after issuance or they will expire.
Remember, always confirm the most current terms directly with FanDuel, as promotions and requirements can change based on state regulations and promotional events.
With the launch of FanDuel Sportsbook in Ohio just around the corner, now is the perfect time to sign up and take advantage of these exciting offers.
Eligibility and Activation
- New Users Only: The No Sweat First Bet offer is available exclusively to new customers who have not previously registered with FanDuel Sportsbook.
- State Restrictions: You must be physically located in an eligible state where FanDuel Sportsbook operates and is licensed.
- No Promo Code Required: There is no need to enter a promo code to claim this offer—just follow the sign-up process and place your first eligible bet.

- Minimum Bet: There is typically a minimum first bet requirement.
- Qualifying Bet: The first eligible bet must be placed on a qualifying market (e.g., specific game, sport, or event) as specified by the promotion.
