Pennsylvania has been one of the biggest champions of legal sports betting, both before and after the Supreme Court finally removed the federal ban on sports betting in the US. That was in 2018, and today the Keystone state has a healthy selection of both online and offline sportsbooks. And with those, come lots of potential bonuses.

Sports betting bonuses are used to attract players, either to sign up or to keep playing. Bonuses represent windows of boosted value, limited opportunities that are waiting to be taken advantage of – whether it’s an opportunity to make an extra saving or win more money than normal.
Pennsylvania has a good selection of sportsbooks, so you can find a wide array of different types of bonuses in the state.
On this page we cover everything you need to know about Pennsylvania sports betting bonuses. As well as an overview of sportsbook promotions in general, we look at how they play out in Pennsylvania, with some specific examples.
For a more comprehensive guide, you can check out our full page dedicated to sports betting bonuses.
As long as you qualify to create an account with a sportsbook, you will be able to claim bonuses. In Pennsylvania, the sports betting laws state that players must be at least 21 years old and all online sportsbooks must also operate a land-based venue for gambling.
To place your bets, including bonus bets, you must be physically located in Pennsylvania.
To fully complete the signup process you also need to verify your identity, which may involve sending copies of personal documentation in addition to providing personal information. Although you may be able to create an account and start betting, many sportsbooks won’t let you claim certain bonuses (or withdraw money) until verification is complete.
When it comes to Sign Up Bonuses you may need to type in a Bonus Code during the registration process. However, some sportsbooks don’t require this and instead just credit your account with the bonus automatically.
Check the terms and conditions carefully, or follow our sign-up links, to make sure you don’t miss out.
The most common types of betting bonuses are listed below, most or all of which you will likely find in Pennsylvania sportsbooks. To get a full description of each one, you can read our detailed betting bonuses guide.
Terms and conditions are so important for betting bonuses. It’s unfortunately all too common that what sounds like an amazing offer is not quite what it seems on closer inspection, so reading them carefully is key.
Here we have collected the main things to keep an eye out for, which you can read a full explanation of in our guide.
Every bettor is different, so the best bonus is likely to differ from one player to the next. For example, if your bankroll is quite small you might be more interested in receiving Free Bets when you sign up, rather than a boosted Deposit Bonus that requires a large investment.
Luckily there are plenty of different sportsbooks and bonuses up for grabs in Pennsylvania, so hopefully, you can find the optimal bonus for you.
In this section, we have collected a few of the options to give you a sense of betting bonuses in PA. For the full story, hit up our detailed guide to betting in Pennsylvania.
DraftKings is one of the top sportsbooks in Pennsylvania, and it comes through with a potentially very valuable welcome bonus for new members.

BetRivers’ Deposit Bonus is great if you intend to invest a reasonably substantial chunk of your own money when you create your account. The 100% bonus is worth up to $250. If you deposit any more than $250, you still receive $250 in Bonus Cash.
The terms and conditions of this deal are pretty good too. The Bonus Cash has a playthrough rate of 1x, which is fine by us. You also have 30 days to unlock the cash, and it must be gambled on bets with odds of -200 or greater.
To claim this bonus you need to use a Bonus Code when signing up, which you can find in our Pennsylvania betting guide.

Unibet’s Deposit Bonus combines a couple of different offers, giving players two $10 Free Bets and a Risk-Free Bet worth up to $250.
Any winnings from the Free Bets exclude the value of the stake. If your first bet is unsuccessful, the value will be returned to you in the form of Bonus Cash within 72 hours. You then have 30 days to gamble the Bonus Cash another 1x times to unlock it.
This bonus combines the best of two worlds, and the Free Bets are especially valuable for players who don’t intend to deposit much cash up front.
