FanDuel & DraftKings welcome offers: $350 value in 15+ states, $400 in NC
FanDuel and DraftKings are two of the best sports betting companies in the country, so it’s no surprise they have two of the most robust welcome offers nationally, and specific to North Carolina. If you’re a new customer with FanDuel and DraftKings, you can claim two different offers and maximize your value: get $350 in bonus bets across more than 15 states or $400 in bonus bets in North Carolina specifically.
Both sportsbooks have bet and gets for new customers that only required a $5 minimum wager requirement. Thus, you could earn up to $350 in bonus bets ($400 in NC) with a cash wager of just $10 total.
You can activate the FanDuel offer with this link or the module below, no promo code required.
Currently, FanDuel is operational with this offer in 21 states (AZ, CO, CT, IL, TN, IN, IA, KS, KY, LA, MA, MD, MI, NJ, NY, OH, PA, VA, VT, WV, WY). As noted, there is an exclusive FanDuel offer in the Tar Heel State with the same offer structure, but a $200 value rather than a $150 value.

As of April 22, DraftKings is operational with this offer in 23 states (AZ, CO, CT, IA, IL, IN, KS, KY, LA, MA, MD, ME, MI, NC, NJ, NY, OH, PA, TN, VA, VT, WY, WV) including North Carolina.
Regardless of which offer you claim, you’ll need to make a cash deposit to register your account and place an initial cash bet of at least $5 to trigger any of these offers.
FanDuel & DraftKings North Carolina promo code offers
As noted above, the potential value of both offers is a bit different in North Carolina. The structure of both promotions is the same in the Tar Heel State but you can potentially get $200 in bonus bets instead of the standard $150 with FanDuel.

How to wager with FanDuel & DraftKings
While these offers are generally structured the same, there are some key points to keep in mind when signing up with either sportsbook.
- Only new customers are eligible
- 21+ only
- Must make a cash deposit to register your account
- Place $5 cash bet to trigger one of the offers
Keeping all that in mind, we’ve outlined some potential wagers for either welcome offer in the paragraphs below.
If you claim the FanDuel offer, there’s $5 minimum wager requirement. Thus, there’s no need to break the bank with a hefty cash stake. You can place the minimum and, since it’s a bet and get, collect the bonus bets.
Say you put $5 in cash down on the Lakers moneyline at +242. A win would garner you $12.10 in profit and you’d keep the cash stake while a loss wouldn’t earn you any profit plus you’d forfeit the cash.
That said, you’d collect $150 ($200 in NC) in bonus bets regardless.
The DraftKings offer is set up the same way so even if your cash wager loses, you’ll be covered and will collect bonus bets. Additionally though, the DK offer includes Same Game Parlays for the NBA Playoffs so you could pair LeBron going over 25.5 points (-110) with Austin Reeves getting under 3.5 rebounds (+115) and the Lakers to cover the +7.5 spread (-108) as a way of maximizing the value of your offer.
Signing up with FanDuel & DraftKings
The sign up process for both books is basically the same but there are some key distinctions to keep in mind. With FanDuel, you’ll get your bonus bets within 72 hours of your qualifying wager settling, with DraftKings they’re distributed immediately.
Additionally, you’ll need to make a cash deposit of at least $10 to register your FanDuel account while a deposit of just $5 registers your DraftKings account.
As we’ve mentioned above, you can claim both offers at the same time as long as you’re a new customer with both sportsbooks. Doing so is the best way to maximize your profit with these welcome offers.
- Use the links or modules above to initiate the sign up process, no promo code required for either
- Input the relevant personal details to establish your account (home address, birth date, etc.)
- Review and approve the T&Cs for your specified promotions
- Make a cash deposit to register your account ($10 for FD, $5 for DK)
- You’re ready to wager, a $5 cash bet activates any of the offers
- Collect your bonus bets!
