bet365 Sportsbook bonus code SHNEWS works with any of their current introductory deals in Kentucky, Iowa, New Jersey, Ohio, Virginia or Colorado. If you are located in a different legal sports betting state, check out our list of top sportsbook offers across the country.

Here are the two deals available for any new bet365 customers other than Kentucky (where you’ll deposit $10, bet $1 and get $365 in bonus bets).

1. $1K First Bet Safety Net: Recoup a first bet miss up to a maximum $1,000 in bonus bets
2. Bet $5, Get $150 in bonus bets: Make at least a $10 deposit and $5 wager on odds -500 or greater to earn $200 in bonus bets

The safety net requires a cash wager of any size and has no odds requirement. As long as the prerequisite deposit is made, your first wager is covered by bet365.

However, the Bet $5, Get $150 requires at least a $5 wager and the bet must be on odds -500 or greater. This means odds such as -120 qualify while -525 wouldn’t be eligible.

First bet using bonus code SHNEWS

Let’s say you choose the safety net offer. It works best on a plus money wager because you either win a higher proportion of cash for the stake or you’re covered by bonus bets if it misses.

After making at least a $10 deposit, an example would be to place $100 on the Detroit Lions +130 vs. the Baltimore Ravens. A win would profit $130 and the stake returned while a miss would be covered by $100 of bet365 bonus bets.

The Bet and Get deal works a little differently. Alternatively, you believe the Ravens can make a splash this year, and place at least $5 on the Ravens moneyline -155.

Whether the Ravens win or lose, you earn the $150 in bonus bets within an hour of bet settlement.

How to activate the bet365 bonus code

$1K First Bet Safety Net

The $1K promo works similarly to other deals in that a miss earns bonus bets while a win profits the cash winnings and stake just like a normal wager. Your first bet is covered up to a maximum $1,000 in bonus bets and has no odds restriction or minimum wager requirement.

If you earn bonus bets, these deposit within an hour of the first bet settlement. bet365 bonus bets may have an odds restriction and are valid for 90 days.

Bet $5, Get $150 in bonus bets

This deal is available as an alternate offer for customers in all bet365 locations besides Kentucky. The Bet and Get deal is straightforward and requires a minimum $10 deposit and $5 wager on odds -500 or greater, such as +150 but not -510.

The wager alone is rewarded with bonus bets whether it wins or not. This means a novice bettor can potentially nail their first bet to win cash, the stake and bonus bets within an hour.

This is an extremely quick turnaround meaning a wager on the early slate of NFL action could provide bonus bets for Sunday Night Football, MLB playoffs or any action throughout the busy sports week.
