The current bet365 bonus code CTNEWS unlocks three offers for new users across the country: an enhanced, $365 bet and get in Louisiana, or a bettor’s choice of either a $1K bet insurance offer or a $150 bet and get for players in Colorado, Iowa, Kentucky, New Jersey, Ohio and Virginia.
All of these promotions are limited to new users in these seven bet365 states. New players in Kentucky who are 18 or older can claim either promotion, while bettors in all other states must be at least 21 to take advantage of any bet365 offers.
Again, all three offers use the same bet365 bonus code CTNEWS -- in Louisiana you’ll automatically be given the $365 offer, and in the other six states you’ll be brought to a landing page to choose your offer.
For the First Bet Safety Net offer, new users can place an initial wager up to $1,000, as long as it’s made in cash, they’ll be eligible to get their complete stake back in bonus bets if their wager settles as a loss.
The bet-and-get offer is structured a bit differently as new users will need to place a cash wager of at least $5 to trigger that promotion. However, new bettors will get $150 in bonus bets regardless of how that initial wager settles.
bet365 also offers new users in Louisiana an exclusive, $365 bet and get that can be claimed with the bonus code CTNEWS.
The module below will get bettors in the Bayou State started with bet365.
All three of the bet365 offers below are accessible with the bonus code CTNEWS.
- No Sweat First Bet: First bet insurance with a cap of $1,000; available in CO, IA, KY, NJ, OH and VA; 21+ only (18+ in KY), new customer only.
- $150 Bet and Get: New users who place a cash wager of at least $5 will get $150 in bonus bets regardless of how that wager settles; available in CO, IA, KY, NJ, OH and VA; 21+ only (18+ in KY), new customer only. Must deposit $10 or more, and your first bet must be -500 or longer (meaning -150 is OK but -550 is not).
- $365 Bet and Get: Players in Louisiana who place a cash wager of at least $1 will get $365 in bonus bets regardless of how qualifying wager settles, 21+, only available in LA. Must deposit $10 or more, and the first bet must be -500 or longer.
bet365 T&C’s
Both bet365 promotions, the $1K bet insurance or the $150 bet and get, are available in six states total: Colorado, Iowa, Kentucky, New Jersey, Ohio and Virginia.
With the exception of Kentucky, where any player who is 18 or older can claim either promotion, all of these offers are limited to new players who are at least 21 or older.
That module and the bet365 bonus code CTNEWS will direct new users to the bet365 landing page where they will choose their preferred promotion.
From there, new users will need to make a cash deposit and place their first wager in cash. The bet insurance offer doesn’t have a wager threshold, but new users will need their first cash wager to settle as a loss to earn bonus bets from that promotion.
New users claiming the bet and get offer will need to place a cash wager of at least $5 to trigger this promotion. Regardless of how that bet settles, new users will get $150 in bonus bets that can be used for any additional wager on the platform.
bet365 Louisiana enhanced bet and get
In addition to those two offers, bet365 has an enhanced bet and get for users living in or visiting Louisiana: $365 in bonus bets with any cash wager of at least $1.
Win or lose, new users will get $365 in bonus bets.
New users can claim this promotion by clicking the module below and using the bonus code CTNEWS at sign up.
This offer is only available for new players who are at least 21 or older and present in Louisiana.
Wagering with bet365
Georgia Bulldogs (-218) vs. Alabama Crimson Tide (+180)
Georgia and Alabama face off in Atlanta again for the SEC Championship.
Both teams have had some success on both sides of the ball this year, with Georgia’s offense ranking in the top 10 in Success Rate and led the FBS in offensive momentum killer.
The Bulldogs’ defense, which was arguably the linchpin of the national title last year, has taken a slight step back, dropping Success Rate a bit and falling out of the top 50 for Havoc outside. A big slip has come when Georgia has its back to the wall, they’ve been allowing 3.5 points on average per 50 opponent possessions over the Georgia 40-yard line.
‘Bama’s secondary has been getting it done all year, ranking second in coverage, according to PFF. In addition to the staunch coverage on receivers and tight ends like Dominic Lovett and Brock Bowers, the Alabama rush defense has a 60 percent success rate against offenses running the inside or outside zone.
Both offenses have displayed a lot of explosiveness but in slightly different ways. The Bulldogs have been successful in part by getting the ground game going early and using the play-action to open up holes for QB Carson Beck downfield.
Alabama’s Jalen Milroe, meanwhile, has taken a lot of sacks this year (more than 30 coming into this week) and has been under pressure a lot. Despite that, he’s been able to find receivers down field, posting an impressive 15 touchdowns to just one pick on throws beyond 20 yards.
Overall, the Bulldogs are a five and a half point favorite with a 54.5 total here. The spread tends to go wide in these matchups but the real money will be on the totals wager, specifically in the first quarter.
In the four meetings since 2018 between these two teams, they’ve scored a combined 13 points in the first quarter. With that in mind, bet the under on the first quarter as both teams will start slow.
How to sign up with bet365
New users should review the conditions outlined below before signing up with bet365.
All of these promotions are restricted to new users in legal sports betting states who are, with one notable exception, 21 or over. Players in Kentucky who are 18 or older can claim either bet365 promotion.
If new players meet all of those criteria they can use the relevant module to initiate the sign-up process. From there, new users will need to deploy the bonus code CTNEWS to earn any bonus bets.
After that, they’ll need to meet the respective wager and deposit requirements. The bet and get offer requires new users to make a cash deposit of at least $10 to register their account, regardless of what promotion they claim.
From there, they’ll need to place a cash wager of at least $5 to initiate this promotion.
The first bet safety net offer does not have a wager requirement so as long as players place an initial wager in cash and its under $1,000 they’ll get their full stake back in bonus bets if their initial wager loses.
The enhanced Louisiana offer requires new users to place an initial cash wager of at least $1. Players will get $365 in bonus bets regardless of how that first wager settles.
Both the initial deposit and the initial wager must be made in cash to qualify.
Any bonus bets earned from any of these promotions cannot be withdrawn or cashed out without being wagered first. Any bonus bets earned from this offer are only valid for one wager a piece.
