What's on tap
Among the most notable additions is BetDefense, which provides first-quarter injury protection on eligible NFL player prop wagers. If a player is sidelined by an injury during the opening quarter, eligible bettors receive their stake back in cash.
BetMGM is also expanding its Cash Out capabilities, allowing customers to settle eligible wagers before the outcomes are determined. The new Odds Flash feature adds premium spread pricing on college football and NFL markets, with real-time notifications when odds move.
The sportsbook is also introducing Legendary Thursdays, which will offer exclusive bonuses and special odds tied to Thursday Night Football games.
Ultimate Teams gives eligible customers another way to interact with BetMGM during the football season. Players can log in Monday through Friday to reveal daily cards and potentially earn a share of a weekly $50,000 Bonus Bets jackpot.
BetMGM is also expanding its football-themed casino offerings, including 20 team-branded casino titles, depending on the customer's jurisdiction.
The BetMGM Rewards program will continue offering customers opportunities to redeem gameplay for travel, entertainment, hospitality, and other experiences. The recently launched Rewards Hub gives customers a way to track tier status, access promotions, and manage rewards across the BetMGM ecosystem.
Eligible new customers can receive up to $1,500 in bonus bets if their initial wager does not win. The offer is subject to eligibility requirements, and the bonus bets are non-withdrawable and expire after seven days.
New users can also use a BetMGM promo code to unlock up to $1,500 in bonus bets when placing a first wager.
