January 2023 Sportsbook Promotions

In 2023, Michigan sportsbooks continue to offer some of the most generous promotional signup bonuses of any US state. With the college football season behind us, many sports fans are now turning their attention to the few remaining NFL games and other favorite sports, like the Australian Open, which is taking place January 16th – 29th. 

The NASCAR cup series also begins on February 6th, 2022, with the world-famous Daytona 500 taking place on February 19th. With all these exciting events right around the corner, it makes sense sportsbooks are looking for ways to generate new players on their websites.

(Note: players must be 21 years of age or older and within Michigan state lines to legally wager on sports)

Caesars

Caesars Sportsbook continues to offer one of the most enticing offers this new year. New players on the Caesars sportsbook site can receive a risk-free bet of up to $1,250. Caesars is also taking its welcome bonus one step further by offering players an additional 1,000 Caesars Rewards Tier Credits, and 1,000 Caesars Rewards Credits.

Additional notes about promotion:

• First bet must be between $10 – $1,250
• Players only receive a refund if their first bet loses. Reward Credits and Tier Credits are awarded whether your bet wins or loses.
• Players must use the promotion code: PLAYONLINEFULL to receive the welcome bonus.
• Once players receive their refund (up to $1,250), funds must be used within 14 days of receiving (players can expect their refund to be deposited within two days after the wager loses).

BetMGM

The country’s most popular online casino is looking for new ways to bring more players to its sports betting website. This January, BetMGM is offering new online sports betting players a $1,000 risk-free when they sign up for a BetMGM account. While the reward bonus is slightly less than Caesars, it’s still an exciting offer, especially if you’ve already taken advantage of Caesars’ offer. Depending on how you like to play, BetMGM’s offer may even be more appealing, as players can receive their refund credit in as little as 24 hours after their first bet loses. It’s also worth noting, that when you do receive your bonus, it will be broken up into five equal denominations. For example, if your first wager of $1000 loses, you’d receive five $200 credits in your account.

• $10 first bet minimum, $1000 maximum.
• Players will only receive a refund if their first bet loses.
