New users can claim a BetMGM bonus code offer worth up to $1,500 in bonus bets for Friday's playoff action. Use code SIBONUS50 when betting on Lakers-Rockets, Lightning-Canadiens, or other exciting matchups. BetMGM offers comprehensive sportsbook promos for Apr. 24 playoff games.

How the BetMGM bonus code works for Friday's playoff games

The BetMGM bonus code SIBONUS50 provides new customers with first bet protection up to $1,500. If your initial wager on Friday's playoff action loses, BetMGM returns your stake as bonus bets. This offer applies perfectly to high-stakes games like Lakers visiting Houston or Lightning traveling to Montreal.

Key terms for this promotion include:

  • Minimum $10 deposit required to activate the offer.
  • Bonus bets expire seven days after issuance.
  • Wagers over $50 receive five separate bonus bets worth 20% each of the original stake.
  • All new users receive $50 MGM Rewards Points regardless of bet outcome.

For example, if you bet $500 on the Lakers to cover the spread against Houston and lose, you would receive five $100 bonus bets totaling your original $500 stake. If you bet $1,500 on the Lightning to win in regulation and lose, you get five $300 bonus bets. These bonus bets give you additional chances to profit from the remaining playoff games.

This BetMGM promotion is available to first-time users in the following states: AZ, CO, DC, IA, IL, IN, KS, KY, LA, MA, MD, MI, MS, NC, NJ, OH, PA, TN, VA, WV, WY. It is not available in NV, NY, or Ontario, Canada.
