North Carolina is now among the elite collection of states that allows online sports betting and as such, it should be no surprise that FanDuel and DraftKings— two of the biggest operators in the country — have a foothold in the Tar Heel State.
Both sportsbooks currently offer $200 bet and gets in state, with one notable wrinkle. New players who sign up with DraftKings can also get a Same Game Parlay everyday for the NBA Playoffs. While each of these offers is distinct, the structure and value in each of these instances is the same: bet $5, get $200 in bonus bets.
Neither offer requires an actual promo code so you can easily get started with the links below.

About the FanDuel & DraftKings North Carolina offers
We’ll get into the specifics of each of the offers in the paragraphs below but there are some key principles to keep in mind, that we’ve listed below.
Both offers are only for new customers
Only players who are 21 or older are eligible
You’ll need to make a cash deposit to register your account for either FanDuel or DraftKings
Any bonus bets earned from FanDuel will be valid for seven days, DraftKings bonus bets will be valid for 14 days
Cash offer of at least $5 will trigger either of these offers
You are able to claim both offers, thus equaling a $400 value
Both of these promotions have the same structure and value. Place a cash bet of $5 to trigger the offer, and you’ll collect $200 in bonus bets when it settles regardless of whether you win or lose.
Bet and gets of this nature are an excellent entry point into sports betting as they have small wagering requirements — just $5 in either case here — and you’ll collect bonus bets regardless of whether you win.
One notable difference, the DraftKings welcome offer includes daily Same Game Parlays for the NBA Playoffs.
Say, for example, you sign up with FanDuel in North Carolina. You place a $5 cash wager on the Heat moneyline (+170). A win would garner you $8.50 in profit, a loss would result in forfeiting the cash but either way, you’d collect 40 times the cash value in bonus bets.
Any bonus bets you earn from the FanDuel North Carolina promotion will be distributed to your account within an hour or so of bet settlement.
Similar principles apply if you claim the DraftKings North Carolina exclusive. That said, there is the additional bonus of the Same Game Parlays for the NBA Playoffs.
For example, you could claim that offer and set up a three leg parlay with Bam Adebayo going over on points and rebounds (-115), the Heat covering the +5.5 (-115) and Miami on the moneyline +170.
A hit on all three legs would garner a significant profit and, with the DK North Carolina welcome offer you’ll have an SGP for everyday of the NBA Playoffs.
