Sportsbooks have started to roll out big promotions for the NFL season as it approaches.
Sportsbook, a sports merchandise company that is well-known for its football merchandise, is looking to make an impact in the first season of the NFL.
The Fanatics jersey drop promo rewards new bettors that place a $50 wager in any market with a $150 promotional credit to spend on the team merchandise of their choice. This promotion is available to Fanatics Sportsbook as well as PointsBet, which is a Fanatics Experience. Last week we noted that several states were rebranding their existing PointsBet before switching to the Fanatics platform.
The promotion is not limited to football merchandise.
Fanatics Betting and Gaming offers a rewarding online sports betting to its customers in celebration of the return of the football season, said Jason White CMO at Fanatics Betting and Gaming. We want to provide our customers with the latest team gear when they bet on the Fanatics Sportsbooks or PointsBet Sportsbooks. Sign up, get dressed, and enjoy the Fanatics Experience.
In the early part of this year, Fanatics attracted the attention Ohio regulators by offering free bets for people who purchased merchandise from Fanatics. The promotion was in violation of the responsible gambling regulations.
This promotion is fundamentally unique, because it rewards bettors by giving them merchandise, and not by inducing people to open a betting account.
It is not the first promotion to reward bettors with jerseys. Caesars Sportsbookoffered an identical promotion in 2021, where bettors wagering $100 on NFL games received a NFL jersey.
