bet365 Sportsbook currently offers a choice between two introductory promos for new customers in Kentucky, New Jersey, Ohio, Virginia, Iowa or Colorado. If you are located in one of these six sports betting states and new to bet365, use bet365 bonus code NYPNEWS to be eligible for one of the following deals.
- $1K First Bet Safety Net — A first bet miss is covered by bonus bets up to the maximum $1,000
- Bet $5, Get $150 in bonus bets — Place $5 on odds -500 or greater to earn the $150 bonus
The main difference to note is that the $1K promo can be a cash wager of any size while the Bet/Get offer requires at least $5. Additionally, the second offer listed requires the bet to be on odds -500 or greater meaning odds such as -250, but not -650.
Select your preferred offer below and use the bonus code NYPNEWS to unlock a bet365 welcome promo.
What sports can I bet on with bet365?
Thursday night features a plethora of sports offered for new and existing bettors alike. One of the ways to activate either offer from bet365 is through an NBA wager.
Thursday night features two matchups including a later game between two playoff hopefuls in the Oklahoma City Thunder and the Golden State Warriors. The Thunder are one of the most improved teams in the league thus far and are favored -3.
While it’s too early in the season to make judgments, the Western Conference has some newcomers to the standings this season in the Houston Rockets and the Oklahoma City Thunder. It will be fun to see how these young teams continue performing through an arduous NBA season.

First bet with bonus code NYPNEWS
$1K First Bet Safety Net
This offer provides new customers the chance to place a first wager, knowing it’s covered if it misses up to a maximum $1,000 in bonus bets. Meanwhile, if your bet hits, you still profit the cash winnings and return your stake.
Let’s say you placed a $100 future on the Oklahoma City Thunder to win the NBA Finals at +7000. This safety net offer has two outcomes:
- A winning bet pays $7,000 and returns the $100 stake
- If you miss, bet365 recoups the $100 stake with bonus bets
Bet $5, Get $150 in bonus bets
bet365’s Bet/Get deal works similarly to other major sportsbook offers, but you’ll need to navigate the odds requirement. Let’s use the Oklahoma City Thunder vs. Golden State Warriors matchup on Thursday night.
While any game can qualify for this deal, note that many of the odds for this game qualify for bonus bets. For example, the Warriors moneyline as an underdog at +124 is eligible and even the Thunder at -149 can be a favored pick that meets the odds requirement.
If you made a minimum $10 deposit and placed at least $5 on the Thunder to cover -3 (-112), the bonus bets are yours whether the Thunder cover or not.
