International betting giant bet365, one of the most popular sports betting sites in the world, now offers new players in 10 states (AZ, CO, IA, IN, KY, LA, NC, NJ, OH, VA) a dual offer structure. You can use the bet365 bonus code CTNEWS to access the bet365 landing page and select either a $1K First Bet Safety Net offer or a bet $5 get $150 in bonus bets promotion.
bet365 is one of the only sportsbooks that offers players a selection of two different promotions. If you claim the bet insurance offer you’ll get the value of your first cash stake back as bonus bets if you lose — up to $1K. The bet and get, on the other hand, has a $5 minimum wager requirement and you’ll earn bonus bets regardless of how that first bet settles.
You can review the important terms and conditions below and get started with either the hyperlinks or the modules.

Wagering with bet365
Since you’ll get your selection of offers with bet365, it’s important to assess the best possible uses before claiming either one.
With the bet insurance offer, you can maximize your potential profit with a wager on an underdog market. If it hits, you’ll get a nice payout and if you lose, you’ll recoup the value of your cash stake as bonus bets. The bet and get, conversely, has a low wager requirement of just $5 and you’ll earn bonus bets regardless of whether your wager wins or loses, thus you can play it safe and still collect.
$1K First Bet Safety
Say you claim the First Bet Safety Net and put up a $320 cash stake on the Windy City rivalry series, with a moneyline wager on the White Sox at +177 against the Cubs.
- If your bet hit, you’d get $566.40 in profit and keep your original cash stake
- If your bet lost, you’d forfeit the cash stake but would get $320 in bonus bets credited to your account within an hour or two of bet settlement
Bet $5 Get $150 in bonus bets
This offer is structured quite differently. As opposed to the bet insurance offer, you’ll earn bonus bets regardless of whether you win or lose. Somewhat similarly, all you need to do is put down a $5 cash bet and you’ll qualify for the bonus bets.
So, let’s say you play it safe and put down a $5 cash wager on the Mavericks moneyline (+200) in Game 1 of the Finals. With a win, you’d earn $10 in profit and keep your cash stake, plus you’d get $150 in bonus bets just for placing the wager.
If you upped your original cash stake to $10, you’d get $20 in profit with a win. Again, you’d collect bonus bets regardless of how your wager settles.
