BetMGM, one of the leading sportsbooks in the country, currently has two unique promos that you can access using the relevant bonus codes.
Sign up with the BetMGM bonus code TRIB1600 to claim a 20 percent deposit match capped at $1,600. This offer is now available in 17 states (AZ, CO, DC, IL, IN, IA, LA, KS, KY, MA, MD, MI, NJ, NC, PA, TN, VA, WV, WY).
With that first promo, you’d need to deposit $8,000 in cash to max out at $1,600 in sports bonuses. Additionally, you’ll need to meet at 10x wager requirement within 30 days. So if you deposit $100 in cash, you’d get $200 in sports bonuses and would be expected to wager $200 in cash over the following 30 days.
You can activate the deposit match promotion with this link or the module below and the corresponding BetMGM bonus code.

Conversely, you can use the BetMGM bonus code TRIBUNENEWS to claim a $1.5K bet insurance offer in 18 states (AZ, CO, DC, IL, IN, IA, LA, KS, KY, MA, MD, MI, NJ, NC, OH, PA, TN, VA, WV, WY).
For the bet insurance promotion, you’ll only earn bonus bets if you don’t win your initial cash wager. In that event, you’ll get the value of your first cash stake back as bonus bets, up to $1,500.
Activate that promotion with this link or the relevant module and BetMGM bonus code.

How to use the BetMGM bonus codes
Given the varied structure of both offers, we’ll go over some example markets in the subsections below.
20% deposit match
With this offer, you’ll need to meet a 10x wager requirement based on the value of your first deposit. Thus, you can keep that initial deposit low and knock out the wager requirement with one bet or chip away at it over the 30 days.
For example, if you deposited $120 in cash, you’d get $24 in sports bonuses credited to your account. From that point, you’d need to wager $240 in cash over 30 days to maintain your eligibility. So you could place a $240 cash wager on a hypothetical White Sox moneyline at +140 and potentially collect $336 in profit. Even if you lose, you’ve already met your wager requirement.
On the other hand, if you deposit a higher value like $500 in cash, you’d get $100 in sports bonuses and would then be required to wager $1,000 in cash over the ensuing 30 days. Thus, you could chip away at it over the course of multiple weeks.
$1.5K bet insurance
Very different offer structure here and since you’ll only win bonus bets with a losing wager, you can maximize your potential value with a cash bet on an underdog market. If it hits, you’ll get a nice profit and if you lose, you’ll recover the value of your first cash stake as bonus bets.
Say, for example, you wager $320 in cash on the White Sox moneyline at +140, you’d either:
- Win the bet, collect $448 in profit plus you’d keep the original cash stake
- Lose the bet, forfeit the cash stake but get $320 in bonus bets credited to your account
