FanDuel

FanDuel Sportsbook West Virginia welcomes new sports bettors with a terrific offer: Make an initial deposit, and you will be awarded a free bet for up to $500. Once the deposit is approved, players can make their first bet. If they lose, FanDuel will reimburse the amount of the wager in betting credit. If they’re successful, they’re credited with the winnings.

There is no promo or referral code required for this bonus – simply sign up, deposit, and you’re automatically awarded a free first bet for up to $500. But you have to deposit at least $10 no later than seven days from the moment you sign up to be eligible for the free first bet offer. It isn’t the most generous deposit bonus available to West Virginia bettors, but it measures up rather well to the competition.

FanDuel Sportsbook feels like it’s been around for years – and that’s the ultimate compliment for a sports betting app still very much in its infancy. With a knockout interface, plenty of deposit and withdrawal options, a strong initial deposit offer and new promotions coming out regularly, West Virginia bettors would be hard-pressed to find a better sportsbook to trust with their money.

BetMGM

New BetMGM members will receive a deposit match up to $500.

BetMGM Sportsbook offers quite a user-friendly bonus. After players sign up, they’re instructed to make their initial deposit. BetMGM then offers the player a free deposit match in the amount they’ve deposited all the way to $500. To claim the bonus, you’ll need to create an account at BetMGM and make your first deposit.

The deposit bonus is a 100% match up to $500, so even if you don’t have $500 to spare, you can still get in on the action. It’s a standard offer, but one that should attract plenty of attention.

It might not be the uncontested No. 1 sports betting app in West Virginia, but anyone just getting into the pastime would be hard-pressed to find a better place to get started. From a super-friendly first deposit risk-free bet to generous promotions geared toward handing out free bet credits to newcomers, BetMGM is a great sports betting app for the uninitiated, and a solid offering overall.

DraftKings

DraftKings Sportsbook WV isn’t messing around when it comes to giving sports bettors an offer they can’t refuse. It’s putting its best foot forward by offering up to $1,000 in deposit bonuses (deposit of up to $500 plus risk-free bet up to $500). The bonus requires a 25x play-through.

This bonus is many things to many people – and it’s one of the best in the industry, particularly if you’re planning on making a big initial deposit. Those of you in West Virginia who are looking to make an immediate deposit splash won’t do much better than this.

DraftKings West Virginia isn’t perfect, but it’s pretty darned close – and as the competition heats up for sports betting dollars, you can expect DK to continue to add features, promotions and other bells and whistles to keep West Virginia sports bettors coming back.
