BetOnline is a great online sportsbook for bettors from anywhere in the world, including the United States. They offer a large sign up bonus and take bets on a wide range of sports. They also offer very competitive odds, with me often placing my bets at BetOnline after extensive line shopping.
BetOnline has grown into one of the biggest and most respected betting sites online over the past several years. I advise everyone to open a BetOnline account because they often have the best betting lines available, are one of the most popular and trusted betting sites serving the US market (while accepting players from around the world), and they’ve improved their sportsbook UI to become one of the cleanest and easiest to use betting sites online.
Bonus Details
Welcome Bonus
BetOnline has a simple free bet bonus for new players with no rollover requirements. Your first deposit is eligible to receive a 50% matching bonus up to $250 in free bet credits. Use promo code FREE250 when making your first deposit to claim this bonus.
A minimum deposit of $50 is required to qualify for the bonus. There are no rollover requirements associated with the free bet bonus, but there are Free Bet rules that dictate how you can use the free bet credits. For example, you cannot use Free Bet credits on parlay bets or bets with odds longer than +150. There are a few other Free Bet rules you can check out in the BetOnline help center.
Ongoing Value Added Promotions
$50 Live Betting Free Play
If your first bet using BetOnline’s live betting option loses then you will be refunded the bet amount up to $50 as a free play. You will need to email freeplay@betonlinecs.ag with your account number and the bets ticket number within 24 hours of the bet being settled in order to receive the free play.
$50 Risk-Free Player Prop Free Play
Your first bet using the BetOnline.ag Props Builder software works much the same way as the live betting free play. If your first Props Builder bet is a loser then you will be refunded the bet amount in free play dollars up to $50. Once again, you have to email freeplay@betonlinecs.ag with “$50 players prop free bet” in the subject line and your account number and the bets ticket number in the email to receive your free play.
Horse Racing Risk-Free Bet and Rebates
Similar to the above two promotions, BetOnline also wants players to try out their Racebook. If your first bet at the racebook loses you will receive a free play of up to $25 as a reimbursement. This offer is only available on your first horse racing bet and you will need to email freeplay@BetOnline.ag our account number and the ticket number of the horse racing bet within 24 hours of the completion for the race. Put “$25 Horse Free Play” in the subject of the email to quickly receive the free play.
Internet horse racing wagers receive a daily 9% rebate for any daily losses at the racebook.
Picks Contests
BetOnline will often offer free-to-play contests with cash prizes on their ‘Contest’ page. At the time of the update to this review some recent contests have included an NBA Playoff Bracket, NHL Playoffs Predictor Challenge, UFC Props Predictor, and NFL Playoffs Pick’em. The prize pools can range from $10,000 to $100,000 and some contests require you to bet on the sport for your entry to be valid, while others do not. I suggest checking the ‘Contests’ page at BetOnline periodically to enter their value-added contests.
Sports Offered
BetOnline offers a wide variety of betting lines on the popular American sports such as baseball, basketball, football, golf, hockey, MMA, soccer and tennis. BetOnline offers very competitive lines for all of these sports and I often find myself placing wagers at BetOnline after extensive line shopping.
They have also increased their bet offerings for less popular sports and leagues in the last few years, and they now rival the biggest betting sites online in terms of the amount of bets they will take action on.
Poker/Casino
BetOnline is a great site for poker and casino play as well. That said BetOnline is part of the Chico poker network, which is quite small compared to the bigger online poker rooms. This means it may be hard to find tournaments and cash games of different types and limits at all hours of the day. The casino is great though, with a good variety and some great bonuses.
The poker room offers a 100% sign up bonus up to a maximum of $1000, several free tournament tickets when you sign up, and more. Head over to BetOnline.ag to learn more about the poker and casino options direct from the site.
