UFC 288 is here, and with it comes plenty of betting excitement thanks in part to two main event fights that the betting market sees as close to even. Gilbert Burns is a slight favorite over Belal Muhammad, and Henry Cejudo is a slight favorite over Aljamain Sterling.
There are two main types of promotional offers for traditional sports betting sites — sign-up offers only for users new to that sportsbook, and promos for existing users on a specific event. We'll cover five new user promos below. If you're unsure of how the mechanics of these promos work, check out our guide to every type of sign-up bonus.

We've covered five sports betting offers that can be used on UFC 288 below. If you're not in a legal betting state, you can check out PrizePicks, which offers DFS selections on UFC 288.
Best UFC 288 Betting Sign-Up Offers
1. FanDuel
- Promo Code: Use the link
- States Available: AZ CO CT IL KS LA IN IA MA MD MI NJ NY OH PA TN VA WV WY
- Offer: Bet $5, Get $150
FanDuel's offer is quite simple — just bet $5 on anything after you sign up, and you'll get $150 in bonus bets. The bonus bets are like a credit in which you keep any profit, but don't keep the bet amount itself.
If you put $10 in bonus bets on Belal Muhammad at +110 against Gilbert Burns on Saturday night, you'd keep $11 in cash if he wins, but not the $1o in bonus bets.
2. BetMGM
- Promo Code: TOPTAN1100
- States Available:AZ CO IN IA IL KS LA MA MD MI NJ NV NY OH PA TN VA WV WY
- Offer: 20% deposit match up to $1,100
With this offer, you can pad your bankroll with a deposit match — the only deposit match available right now. It means whatever you deposit, you'll get 20% of that as a bonus. So if you put in $1,000, you'll get $200 in bonus bets (though it comes with a 10x rollover on the bonus amount, so you must wager $2,000 within the first two weeks of having your account).
3. bet365
- Promo Code: TOPACTION
- States Available: CO NJ OH VA
- Offer: Bet $1, Get $200
All you have to do to sign up at bet365 is deposit $10, bet $1 on any market that has odds of -500 or greater (meaning -499 is OK, but -501 is not) and you'll get $200 in bonus bets. Those bonus bets can then be used on anything you'd like.
4. Caesars
- Promo Code: ACTION4FULL
- States Available: AZ CO IL IN IA KS LA MA MD MI NJ NV NY OH PA TN VA WV
- Offer: $1,250 first bet on the house
Caesars is offering all new users a first bet on the house up to $1,250, meaning if your first wager loses, you'll be refunded in bonus bets equal to whatever you lost.
So let's say you put $200 in bonus bets on Aljamain Sterling at +105 against Henry Cejudo in Saturday night's main event.
- If Sterling wins, you'll profit $210, but you don't keep the $200 in bonus bets. So you'd now have $210 cash in your account, plus whatever you deposited.
- If Sterling loses, the bonus bets just go away, and you're only left with your cash deposit.
The bonus bets don't have to be used all at once, so you can split them up into smaller increments.
5. PrizePicks
- Promo Code: ACTION
- States Available: AK, AR, AZ, CA, CO, DC, FL, GA, IL, KS, KY, MA, MI, MN, NE, NM, NY, NC, ND, OK, OR, RI, SC, SD, TX, UT, VA, VT, WI, WY
