UFC 290 features an epic card that has a bit of everything — two title fights, rising superstar Bo Nickal as a huge favorite once again, and many fan favorites littered throughout the night.
Sportsbooks across the country are offering promotions for both existing and new users to celebrate UFC 290. Most of the new-user promos aren’t specific to UFC, and are standard offers that can be applied to any of the fights on Saturday night’s card.
Then there are a handful of promo offers for existing users, like odds boosts on specific bets and profit boosts on any kind of bet you’d like to make.
New-User Promos

DraftKings, the official sponsor of the UFC, is offering a 20% deposit match up to $1,000. That means if you put in $5,000, you’ll get $1,000 in bonus bets. If you deposit $500, you’ll get $100.
Bonus bets at DK work like they do at most other sport🍸sbooks. You keep any profit from winning bonus bet wagers, but not the bonus bet itself.
So say you take $10 in bonus bets and put it on Val Woodburn to beat Bo Nickal at +1000. If Woodburn wins, you’ll win $100. If he loses, your bonus bet just goes away.
FanDuel
- States Available: AZ CO CT IL KS LA IN IA MA MD MI NJ NY OH PA TN VA WV WY
- Offer: Bet $20, Get $200 in bonus bets
To claim, new users need to register, make a first-time deposit, and then simply place their first real-money wager on any FanDuel Sportsbook market that is live on platform. All users will re💛ceive their $200 in bonus bets within 72 hours of the bet placement.
- Super competitive bonuses
- Offer same-game parlays
- Access anywhere, Easy to Use
FanDuel has moved away from its typical “no sweat first bet” offer and is instead giving new users a “10x bonus” up to $200. That means whatever your first wager is, you’ll get 10x that in bonus bets.
If you bet the max $20, you’ll get the max of $200 in bonus bets.
BetMGM
- States Available: AZ CO IN IA IL LA MA MD MI NJ OH PA TN VA WV WY
- Offer: $1,000 first bet on the house
- Promo Code: BLEACHNEWS
Exclusive Offer: Get♔ Your First Deposit Matched up to $1,500 🌌in Bonus Bets!
BetMGM is back to its first bet on the house offer, meaning you’ll get refunded in bonus bets equal to whatever you lose, should your first wager on the platform lose.
Let’s say you deposit and bet $100 on Alexandre Pantoja to beat Brandon Moreno at +175. If he wins, you’ll pocket $175 ($100 x 1.75), keep the $100 you wagered, and you’ll have $275 cash in your account. The promo is effectively over.
If Moreno wins, however, you’ll get refunded $100 in bonus bets, and have to wager those to turn them into cash.
Caesars
- States Available: AZ CO IL IN IA KS LA MA MD MI NJ NY OH PA TN VA WV
- Offer: $1,250 first bet on the house
- Promo Code: BLEACHFULL
$1,000 First Bet on Caesars
If the player's Qualifying Wager is graded as a Loss by Caesars, the Participant will earn a one-time Bonus Bet token equal to the lessor of (1) the full value of the Quali𝔉fying Wager or 2) $1,000 (the “Bonus Bet”)
- Strong VIP Rewards Including Bonus Bets
- Tier Credits Earned For Every Bet Placed
The Caesars offer is the same as the BetMGM offer, but up to $1,250. So if your first wager loses, you’ll be refunded in bonus bets up to $1,250. But if you only bet $200 and lose, you’ll get $200 back in bonus bets if it loses.
bet365
- States Available: CO IA NJ OH VA
- Offer: Bet $1, Get $200 in bonus bets
- Promo Code: BLEACHNEWS
bet365 has one of the simplest offers available — deposit $10, bet $1, get $200 in bonus bets.
The $1 or more first wager must be at odds of -500 or longer, me🌞aning a bet a🍨t -400 would be OK, but -600 is not.
bet365’s bonus bets work like any other bonus bets — you keep the profit, but the not the bonus bet itself.
Barstool Sportsbook
- States Available: AZ CO IL IN IA KS LA MA MD MI NJ OH PA TN VA WV
- Offer: Promo entries

Existing User Promos
DraftKings
DK has two pr🧸omos for existing users for UFC 290, including:
- 50% same game parlay profit boost
- “Stepped up” 100% parlay profit boost
The 50% SGP boost is꧂ pretty straightfo🍒rward. Just bet an SGP with at least two legs with each leg at -500 or longer (so -400, -150 are OK) and DK will boost the price 50%. That means if you bet an SGP at +100, it will be boosted to +150. If you bet one at +1400, it will be boosted to +2100.
The only downside is that DraftKings’ UFC same game parlay offerings are a bit limited, so it’s hard to get too creative.
The “stepped up” offer is a little more involved, as you’ll get a different-sized parlay boost depending on how many legs you add. If you three legs in a parlay, you’ll get a 20% boost, up to 10 legs, which gives you a 100% boost.
FanDuel
Not abnormal for these events, FanDuel has gone wi💙th an odds boost instead of a profit boost like DK.
They have one boost available — Bo Nickal to Win by Submission in Round 1 v Val Woodburn, boosted from -160 to +100.
We have the fair value around -1♔35, giving this promo 15% expected value at +100. .
BetMGM
BetMGM has a few boosts, but they’re usually not worth betting (and if you do want to bet the same wagers, you can find better prices elsewhere).
For example, BetMGM has Robert Whittaker to 🌳win in Round 1 boo𒅌sted to +250, but you can find the same bet at Caesars at +300.
Or 💛they have Volkanovski, Pantoja and Price to all win boosted to +400, but bet365 has the same parlay at +402.
bet365
bet365 has a similar “stepped up” parlay to DraftKings for multi-sport parlays, meaning you’ll get a bigger boost on your parlay depending on how many legs it is. For UFC, only “to win fight” and “fight outcome” markets apply.
For UFC, you’ll get 5% additional profit boost for every leg you add. So your parlay needs 14 legs to get to 70%.
There are no “super boosts” available for UFC 290 like normal. There is one instead for tonight’s Angels-Dodgers game.
SuperBook
SuperBook has one boost listed right now, Dan Hooker and Jalin Turner to go the distance. It’s boosted to +265.
Using other books, we have the true value at around +25🌊7, giving it just about 2% EV when boosted🌳 to +265.
