About Us
You must be 21 or older to use the sportsbooks we cover. If you or someone you know has a gambling problem, call the National Problem Gambling Helpline at 1-800-GAMBLER. In Texas, you can also use the state-specific resources listed on our Responsible Gambling page.
Sports Betting Bonuses is an independent comparison site for sportsbook promotions. We explain what a welcome bonus is worth once you read the fine print. We look at rollover, minimum odds, expiration dates and payment restrictions. This page explains who we are, how we work, how we earn money and where our information has limits.
What we do and who we do it for
Our readers are mostly US sports fans who want to compare sportsbook bonuses before they sign up. Some are casual bettors looking at a first-bet offer. Others already know their way around rollover and want to see which offers have the least friction. Some are newly eligible in a recently regulated state and want a plain walkthrough of how a promo code works.
We don't sell picks. We don't promise that a bonus will make you money. A promotion is a marketing incentive with conditions attached, and we treat it that way.
How we review and rank promotions
Our rankings are editorial. Each sportsbook is reviewed from its published promotion terms, its site information and other publicly available material. We haven't claimed to deposit, wager or withdraw at any sportsbook for these reviews. When we cite an offer, it is the sportsbook's own advertised offer as of the fact-check date, September 29, 2026. Offers change often, so confirm the current terms on the sportsbook's own page before you act.
The factors we weigh are:
- The headline offer size and its structure, such as a deposit match versus free bets.
- Wagering requirements and how many times the bonus must be played through.
- Minimum odds, time limits and expiration dates.
- Which payment methods qualify for the offer.
- Clarity of the terms and how easy they are to find.
- Range of sports and markets, from NFL and NBA to soccer, golf and MMA.
The ratings you see beside each sportsbook are our editorial scores. They are not customer-review scores and they don't measure your likely results.
How we make money
We may earn a commission when you sign up through some links on this site. That commission does not buy a higher ranking, and commercial relationships don't decide our order. It does mean you should read our pages as independent reviews written by a publisher with a financial interest in clicks. Read the sportsbook's full terms before you deposit anything.
The sportsbooks we currently cover
The current list, in editorial order, is Lucky Rebel, Bovada, BetOnline, BetNow, Everygame, BetUS, Sportsbetting, Xbet, MyBookie and ApuestaHoy. Their offers are in the cards on our pages. They are advertised offers, and the wagering conditions that apply to them sit in each sportsbook's terms.
Here is a summary of what those headline offers look like. It is not a substitute for the terms.
| Sportsbook | Advertised welcome offer |
|---|---|
| Lucky Rebel | 125% up to $1,250 + 50 FreeBet |
| Bovada | 50% up to $250 |
| BetOnline | $250 in free bets |
| BetNow | 125% up to $2,500 |
| Everygame | 100% up to $500 |
| BetUS | 100% up to $2,000 on sports, plus 25% on casino |
| Sportsbetting | 50% up to $250 in free bets |
| Xbet | 50% up to $200 when using a credit card |
| MyBookie | 100% up to $1,000 for new players |
| ApuestaHoy | 200% welcome offer |
Every figure above carries conditions. A match bonus usually requires a deposit and a rollover before winnings can be withdrawn, and a "free bet" often can't be cashed out as bonus funds. We don't display a bonus number without telling you to check the rollover.
Licensing, state rules and offshore risk
Sports betting is legal state by state in the US, and rules on age, eligibility and permitted products differ. We have not verified or claimed any specific license or registration for the sportsbooks we list. Before you sign up, check where the operator is licensed and whether it is authorized in your state.
State consumer protections may not apply if a sportsbook operates outside your state's regulated market. That includes offshore operators. With those, there is an added risk that you may have trouble getting a dispute resolved or being paid. Only wager money you can afford to lose. Treat anything on this page about tax or legal matters as general information, and consult a qualified professional.
What you can and can't expect from us
- We do: explain terms, compare offers on the factors that matter and date the information we publish.
- We don't: guarantee winnings, offer "locks," or suggest betting is a way to earn income or fix money problems.
- We can't: promise that an offer is still live or that a sportsbook will accept you. Availability depends on your state and the sportsbook's own eligibility checks.
Betting responsibly
Betting is entertainment and it carries a real risk of loss. Never chase losses, never bet to escape stress or money worries, and never treat a bonus as a reason to wager more than you planned. Use deposit limits and time-outs where a sportsbook offers them. Our Responsible Gambling page lists tools and support. Free, confidential help is available at 1-800-GAMBLER at any time.
