1. BetMGM

  • States available: AZ CO IN IA IL KS LA MI NJ PA TN VA WV WY
  • Bonus code: ACTIONCUP

BetMGM is offering new users $200 in free bets when they bet at least $10 on any World Cup match.

For some reason, the offer says there needs to be a goal scored, but there doesn't. You'll get the free bets even if the match you bet ends 0-0.

Use this link and then enter bonus code ACTIONCUP to activate it.

2. FanDuel

  • States available: AZ CO CT IL KS LA IN IA MI NJ NY PA TN VA WV WY
  • Promo code:Use this link

We have a FanDuel offer exclusive to Action Network — bet $5, get $125 in free bets. It can be used on the World Cup on Sunday or this week.

  • Claim it here.
  • Bet $5 on any game
  • If it wins, you keep the winnings.
  • Either way, you get $125 in free bets.

We already did a full breakdown of how the no-sweat bets work here.

3. Caesars

  • States available: AZ CO IL IN IA KS LA MI NJ NV NY PA TN VA WV
  • Promo code: ACTION4FULL

Caesars will refund your first bet in free bets if it loses, up to $1,250. That means if you bet $200 the USA moneyline and it loses on Monday afternoon, you get $200 back in free bets. But it must be your first bet on the platform.

Claim it here or use promo code ACTION4FULL at checkout.

4. PointsBet

  • States available: CO IL IN IA KS MI NJ NY PA VA WV
  • Promo code:Use this link

New PointsBet users can get up to $500 in free bets using this link. Starting Monday, you can make your first bet up to $100 to receive $100 in free bets if it loses.

The offer is a bit confusing, but here are the basics.

  • If your first bet of the day loses in any of your first five days as a PointsBet user, you'll get a free bet back, up to $100. Say you bet $50 on USA moneyline vs. Wales and it loses — you'll get $50 in free bets.
  • Then if your first bet on day two is $100 on Argentina -2.5 vs. Saudi Arabia and they don't cover, you'll get another $100 free bet.

5. Barstool

  • States available: AZ CO IL IN IA KS LA MI NJ PA TN VA WV
  • Promo code: ACTNEWS1000

Barstool new users can use promo code ACTNEWS1000 or follow this link to get a $1,000 risk-free bet.

It can be used on the World Cup or any other game.

6. WynnBet

WynnBet has some of the strongest pricing on moneylines and spreads of any sportsbook in the legalized American market.

If you care at all about price, Wynn is a must-have. And you'll get $100 in free bets if you sign up now and bet $50.

Just follow this link and/or use code XACTIONBET at checkout.

How to Use Free Bets & Sign-Up Bonuses

We've covered this in-depth before, but it's worth repeating — you should always use free bets and sign-up bonuses on plus-money wagers.

There's much more expected value in plus-money wagers on free bets.

Not in a Legal State?

1.  PrizePicks

PrizePicks allows you to choose player statistical outcomes and put them together to create a high payout.

Click here to sign up or use promo code ACTION at checkout to get $100 free.

PrizePicks lists an absurd amount of statistical props for the World Cup.

Here's an example. You can bet Harry Kane under 0.5 goals vs. Iran and Harry Kane/Neymar to combine for under 1.5 goals for a 2/1 payout.

So how does it work, exactly? You need to combine anywhere from 2-5 stats — picking either more or less — and get them all right to win big.

For a two-player entry of Hendon Hooker over his rushing + passing yards, and Stetson Bennett over 22.5 completions, I'll 3x my bet amount.

2. Underdog Fantasy

Underdog has a great fantasy football product, but it also has "pick'em games" that operate kind of like PrizePicks.

Use this link or promo code ACTION at checkout.

You can choose more or less on a bunch of player statistics, and multiply your winnings by adding more. They'll have plenty posted for the World Cup.

3. Fliff

Fliff is "sports betting reimagined as an interactive game" in which you can earn coins by picking games — including moneylines, spreads and totals.

The coins can be redeemed for gift cards at your favorite restaurants and stores, among other things.

Use this link to sign up for a $25 bonus.
