Boom Fantasy and Underdog Fantasy are two major players in the Daily Fantasy Sports (DFS) industry — both of them are offering up to $100 in value for those signing up this weekend.
Underdog Fantasy can be signed up for with the promo code ACTION for a deposit match of up to $100. The Boom Fantasy promo code, on the other hand, offers a $100 no-sweat first entry.
Unlike the traditional sportsbooks, these platforms feature DFS Pick’em style formats. These are fantasy style contests in which the user chooses a selection of players they think should either net a higher or lower point total than the posted stats.
You must be 18+ to play on either of these sites. Both are available in more than 30 states.
How Does Boom Fantasy's Offer Work?
When playing DFS Pick’ems, you want to select more players than less — doing so will boost your potential payout.
An example would be I select Justin Verlander to eclipse his strikeout total and Bryce Harper to do so with his hits stat. I would win double my money if both players exceed their respective totals.
Say I wanted to throw a third player into the mix: I'd get 5x my payout plus my stake back.
With $20 on a 3-leg pick'em, I would see a payout of $100, plus the $20 stake back.
Boom's "no-sweat" entry worth up to $100 means if your first entry results in a loss, you'll be reimbursed in site bonuses equal to your losses.
So, if you decide to make your first entry with $100, you will get $100 back if you lose. You can put in any amount under $100 and it will work the same way.
Boom Fantasy is live in these 25 states: Alaska, Arkansas, California, Washington D.C., Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Kansas, Kentucky, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Nebraska, New Mexico, North Carolina, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Maine, Oregon, Rhode Island, South Carolina, South Dakota, Texas, Utah, Virginia, and Wisconsin.
How Does Underdog Fantasy's Offer Work?
Underdog Fantasy's $100 offer works a bit differently. Theirs is a deposit match, which means whatever amount you put in, Underdog will match it.
If you put in $100, you'll get $100 in bonuses that you can apply to any games and contests.
