PointsBet Sportsbook is offering you a chance to make your first sports bets risk free.
Online sports bettors who open a new PointsBet account can make a pair of risk-free bets totaling up to $2,000.
If you win? Congratulations, take your money. Lose? PointsBet will refund your loss with a free bet of equal value.
PointsBet Sportsbook sign-up bonus
Claim your PointsBet welcome offer here, and register your new account with the promo code BETBONUS.
You’ll receive a risk-free bet up to $500 on your first fixed odds bet, and a risk-free bet of up to $1,500 on your first PointsBetting wager.
PointsBetting allows bettors to add some more action to their action, as the score difference in the game you wagered on will multiply your winnings. If your team wins by 10, your wager wins by 10-times. But be careful, as a loss will cost you at the same rate.
Refunds for losing risk-free bets will be processed as free bets within 24 hours of bet settlement.
How to create a PointsBet account
Creating a PointsBet account is relatively simple, as you will only need a minimal amount of personal information.
Be prepared to provide the following:
- Name
- Email address
- DOB
- Last four digits of your Social Security number
- Cell number
- Address
PointsBet also asks you to provide a username and a password.
In addition, you must check various boxes acknowledging the Privacy Policy and Terms and Conditions, that you are 21 or older, and that you are prohibited from allowing anyone else to access or use your account. If all the statements you have made are true, there’s no reason why you shouldn’t be allowed to bet on sports in the state.
Finally, PointsBet uses geolocation technology to ensure you’re inside the borders of a state or province where it legally operates.
PointsBet Sportsbook now live in Ontario
Our neighbors to the north can also get in on the action at PointsBet, as Ontario expanded its betting market on Monday, allowing commercial online sportsbooks to launch in the province.
PointsBet Canada is one of Ontario’s regulated sportsbooks and has attempted to be uniquely Canadian. It features plenty of options to bet on curling and has struck a marketing deal with the Trailer Park Boys.
There are also the typical markets Michigan sports bettors can access, so Canadians can add some action while they watch the Maple Leafs and Raptors make their playoff pushes. Or maybe place a bet on Maple Leafs forward Auston Matthews to win the Hart Trophy.
Ontario bettors can also take a chance on the Blue Jays to win the AL East, which they are the favorite to do.
