So, let's get into this, and find out more about the wide range and types of bonuses available at sports betting operations in Michigan including the signup bonuses you have arrived here looking for.
Bet and Get Offers in MI
Bet & Get offers in Michigan usually refers to a bonus that matches your first bet stake amount, EG, if you make a wager and stake $500 on your first bet the sportsbook will match that with $500 of bonus funds or a free bet. In some cases you will need to make another bet for the full amount of the bonus claimed, in other cases, the bonus funds can be used to create several bets to the total amount.
Check what Types of bets are permitted and if deposits by electronic wallet methods are affected. Generally, debit card deposits from Visa or Mastercard qualify in most cases.
In addition, there may also be a turnover or rollover requirement. This may range from having to make the total bonus fund stakes at least once to then turn any profit into real money, or in other cases, you may have to roll over the bonus amount several times before the profit becomes withdrawable.
Be sure to check terms and understand to avoid disappointment, remembering the more times you have to roll over the bonus funds, the harder it is to retain profit to withdraw and usable cash.
Michigan Risk-Free Bets
An ambiguous term in some cases, a risk-free bet is often offered if your first wager is lost. But if you have lost your first wager how does a risk-free bet work?
So the rule of the risk-free bet is that, if your first bet loses, you get the value of the stake back, thus making it a no-lose bet. However, this may not be the end of the story because there are two potential outcomes.
- Stake back in cash
- Stake back in credits, or bonus bets
Scenario 1 is all great. You made a bet with cash, you lost and the Michigan sportsbook has given you back your money in cash
Scenario 2 is very different. If you get your risk-free bet stake back in the form of free bets or bonus credits you will have to wager them once again before you can turn them back into the original cash you staked in the first place.
Plainly, if you can find the most simple form or risk-free bet in Michigan whereby you get cashback, then that is the offer to select.
Example: If you make a $250 wager as your very first bet with a sportsbook and the bet loses, you are offered a further $250 bet to make on an event and market of your choice at no further cost to you. So in the terms of this offer, this is what would be classed as a risk-free wager in the MI promo code sphere.
- $500 Risk-Free Bet
- $250 Risk-Free Bet
- Risk-Free Wagers
There are many ways these can be described and advertised
Be aware that there are often conditions to this free bet such as minimum odds or limited events and markets they can be used on. If the bet wins, you receive only the profit, not the $250 wager stake.
The ambiguity in the term comes in the fact that, if your first wager is a winner, you do not get the risk free bet at all, and of course, you have to risk some of your own money and LOSE to get the risk free bet reward.
Again, check all terms and conditions of this type of Michigan free bet offer carefully, but yeah, if you can find a $500 Risk-Free Bet as a welcome offer, I'd be all over it.
Remember, the mobile sportsbooks will only match the first bet here. It is often the first wager to be settled too. So don't make the mistake of depositing $500 then making a $450 wager on an event as your first bet, then place another bet of $50 after placing the first on an event that will finish first. You will only get a $50 bonus.
This has caught out many new sports wagering customers and will do in Michigan state, so don't forget.
First Deposit Offers for Michigan
With a first deposit offer, no bet has to be made to qualify for a free bet.
Instead, the amount you deposit into your Michigan online betting account in the first instance will be matched by the same amount in free bet credits or bonus funds.
Example: If you deposit $500 as your first transaction, the sportsbook will match that amount and credit your new account with $500 of bonus funds to be used. Again, there may be some conditions as to how you can use these free bets including minimum odds, or specified events or markets, so always check the full terms. Take a look at the list of offers above, select a first deposit match offer, click it and find out more.
Michigan No Deposit Offers
No deposit offers are quite common in Michigan right now, but if the trend across Europe is followed they may not be available for long.
A No Deposit offer literally offers you bonus funds to wager just for creating a new online account with a sportsbook app.
The one downside, if there is one, is that there are likely to be larger turnover requirements on those funds before they become real cash you can withdraw from your online account.
The larger the turnover requirement, the harder it will be to retain any real money profit at the end, but if you do, it' is free dollars for you.
It is imperative that you fully read the terms and understand what you have to do to win real money with this type of offer, as often, deposit match or bet and get offers are better value for you
