As one of the largest betting companies in the U.S., it’s no surprise that BetMGM has two of the most unique welcome offers in the country. You can use the BetMGM bonus code TRIB1600 to unlock a 20 percent deposit match with a $1.6K cap. Additionally, you can use the BetMGM bonus code TRIBUNENEWS to grab a $1.5K bet insurance offer. And finally, if you’re in North Carolina, you can use TRIBUNENEWS for $150 in bonus bets with just a $5 wager.
Both of these offers are now available in 18 states (AZ, CO, IL, IN, IA, LA, KS, KY, MA, MD, MI, NJ, OH, PA, TN, VA, WV, WY).
Since it’s a fractional deposit match offer, you’ll get 20 percent of whatever cash you deposit. So if you put down $1,200 in cash, you’ll get $240 as sports bonuses. This offer has a 10x wager requirement as well so, in keeping with that example, you’d need to bet $2,400 over the next 30 days to maintain your eligibility.
You can activate the deposit match offer with this link and the TRIB1600 bonus code.
The bet insurance offer is more direct, place a cash wager of $1,500 or under and get that full value back if it settles as a loss.

Wagering with BetMGM
Since these BetMGM offers all have different structures, each one has different uses. The bet insurance promotion is a solid option for a wager on an underdog because a win would garner a substantial profit while a losing would wager would still earn you bonus bets.
Conversely, the deposit match lends itself to multiple smaller wagers because it has an extended wager requirement and is a fractional match.
Say, for example, you claim the deposit match and put down $650 in cash. You’d then get $130 (650 x 0.2) credited to your account as sports bonuses. From that point, you’d have 30 days to wager $1,300 (130 x 10) before your eligibility expires.
If you chose to place that full $130 as sports bonuses on the Lakers moneyline at -120, you could potentially get $108.33 in profit if you win.
That bet insurance offer lends itself to a larger cash wager. If you put down $520 at the same odds, you could earn $433.33 in profit with a win. That said, even if you lost, you’d collect $520 as bonus bets. Thus, it’s more effective to take a shot on an underdog.
