DraftKings sportsbook app offers a Bet $5 Get $150 welcome bonus to new players. The $150 is credited as six $25 Bonus Bets and requires a minimum $5 deposit and bet.

The Bonus Bets are single-use non-cashable non-withdrawable and must be wagered 1x and the stake is not included in winnings. They also expire seven days after being awarded. No DraftKings bonus code is needed to claim the welcome bonus.

New players also automatically get a No Sweat NBA same game parlay (SGP) token every day of the NBA playoffs. Every day they can use this token on any 3+ leg SGP relating to the NBA playoffs and if the bet loses it is credited back as a bonus bet.

DraftKings doesn’t disappoint when it comes to offers for new players but as a seasoned punter — I expect a bit more.The $150 in Bonus Bet is not bad but DraftKings is on a trend of decreasing the bonus amount. The 1x wagering requirement is also a massive plus in my book which puts DraftKings ahead of the competition (clocking in an average of 20-30x). All in all it’s the bonus offer is a great start for first-time punters but DraftKing could do with improving variety for existing customers. At the time of writing the ‘Promotions’ page runs rather dry.

DraftKings sportsbook offers 10 depositing methods. You’ll find major credits Play+ online banking options PayPal and more. 10 payment methods is a fair number – of course there are always far fewer ways to withdraw than pay. But with some methods (like PayPal) you can do both.

Here is the complete list of depositing methods for DraftKings sportsbook: Online banking Visa Mastercard Discover DraftKings gift card PayPal Play+ cash at a retail location (Family Dollar CVS Pharmacy Dollar General and 7-Eleven) Wire transfer and VIP preferred e-check.

The following is a list of withdrawal methods: online banking PayPal VIP Preferred e-check Play+ Wire Cage and Checks.

At DraftKings sportsbook depositing methods are instant (or should be). With withdrawals some methods you might think would be instant aren’t instant at all. For example PayPal shouldn’t take 3-5 days (it should be instant after processing). Same with Play+ which DraftKings sportsbook puts at 2-4 withdrawal time.

DraftKings sportsbook offers a solid set of betting features. The bet builder (bet slip) is easy to use and pops up even for non-registered users entering the site. Live betting is also available with multiple betting options as the games and events progress. Regarding betting the DraftKings sportsbook app is a user-friendly site with plenty of guides on various bet types and sports to help beginners.

Live betting is available at DraftKings – although it lacks live streaming options. The filtering system is easy to use allowing you to choose your favorite sport team and event. The odds are updated rapidly along with changes in the score. The downside is that there isn’t even graphics to show you what’s going on at the game (Bet365 sportsbook offers this for example).

DraftKings sportsbook odds are around the standard for the industry: 95.1%. Around 97% is usually the average on the high end. For football odds they’re on average about 95.4% and for basketball they’re a little higher. If you compare that to Golden Nugget sportsbook which offers 95.16% and FanDuel’s 95.30% there really isn’t much in it. 

Live betting payouts are a bit lower at 93.4% than other payouts (like football) but that’s also pretty standard. That number is nothing special compared to other sportsbooks like FanDuel Golden Nugget and BetMGM – which all hover around the 93-94% mark. 

DraftKings comes into its own when it comes to sports you can bet on. As an official partner of the NFL it’s a given that the NFL sports markets at DK are huge. Ditto for college football. But you can also bet on other sports like darts and volleyball. Also if you’re a soccer fan all the major leagues are available (The Premier League Serie A and the Bundesliga). In total you’ll find over 20+ different types of sports to bet on – that compares favorably to Golden Nugget (17 sports) which beats out its big rival FanDuel which offers 19.

There’s a lack of entertainment and politics (and current events) betting options. Esports (a growing market) is missing too. But for all the major US sports DraftKings sportsbook app is solid. 

NFL and College Football fans will be happy with DraftKings sportsbook – it has 200+ markets and every NFL division College team and major event to bet on. Want to try your luck with a same game parlay on your favorite college teams like Florida State? It’s got you covered. It’s got strong offerings for NBA and division one College Basketball too.
