BetMGM announced a new welcome promotion that will be active for the upcoming slate of Major League Baseball games. The company is offering two distinct bonus structures based on the bettor’s state of residence. In Michigan, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and West Virginia, new registrants can use the code TOP1500 to place a $10 wager and receive $150 in bonus bets if that wager wins. In all other participating states, the same code unlocks a $1,500 first‑bet safety net, meaning a losing wager is returned as bonus bets.
How the promotion works
To claim the offer, users must create a BetMGM account, enter the promotional code TOP1500 and place an initial wager that meets the minimum stake requirement. If the first bet wins, the bonus is paid out immediately. If the bet loses, the original stake is credited back as bonus bets that can be used on future wagers. The promotion is limited to one per household and is subject to the standard terms and conditions of BetMGM’s wagering platform.
Games highlighted in the promotion
The company highlighted several MLB contests that will be taking place on Monday night, including the Philadelphia Phillies at the Seattle Mariners, the Chicago Cubs at the Arizona Diamondbacks, and the Boston Red Sox at the Miami Marlins. BetMGM’s marketing materials point to the pitching matchups – Zack Wheeler versus Logan Gilbert, and Ranger Suarez versus Sandy Alcantara – as prime opportunities for bettors to apply the new bonus.
State‑by‑state availability
BetMGM operates in a number of U.S. jurisdictions, but the promotional structure varies. The $150 bonus bet for a $10 qualifying wager is offered only in Michigan, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and West Virginia. All other states where BetMGM is licensed receive the $1,500 first‑bet offer. Prospective bettors should verify that their state is listed among the participating locations before attempting to claim the promotion.
Considerations for bettors
While the promotion provides a sizable safety net, bettors should be aware of the wagering requirements attached to bonus bets. Bonus funds typically must be wagered a certain number of times before any winnings can be withdrawn. Additionally, the promotion does not apply to bets placed on events that are excluded from BetMGM’s standard betting menu.
Responsible gambling reminder
BetMGM emphasizes responsible gambling practices. The company provides tools such as deposit limits, self‑exclusion options and links to counseling resources for individuals who may need assistance with gambling‑related concerns.
Where to find more information
Interested users can visit BetMGM’s official website, navigate to the promotions page, and enter the code TOP1500 during the account creation process. Detailed terms, state eligibility and wagering requirements are outlined in the promotion’s fine print.
