Which welcome package applies in each market
BetMGM Online uses different welcome packages for different locations. The main deposit-match offer is attached to New Jersey and Michigan, while the UK, Pennsylvania and West Virginia packages use their own amounts, currencies and conditions. Keep the market label beside the offer when you compare them.
| Market | Welcome package | Main terms |
|---|---|---|
| New Jersey / Michigan | 100% deposit match up to $1,000 plus $25 bonus on the house | Minimum deposit $10; no Promo Code required |
| UK | 225 Free Spins on Big Bass Splash, each worth 10p; total bundle value £22.50 | Minimum deposit £10; wager £10 1x on eligible casino games within 7 days |
| Pennsylvania | Up to 1,000 Bonus Spins in total, with Spin the Wheel and deposit-match choices | Minimum deposit $10; each spin is worth $0.20; spins run across the first deposit and the following 9 days |
| West Virginia | $50 bonus after verified account creation, 50 bonus spins and a 100% first-deposit match up to $2,500 | The $50 bonus does not require a deposit; no Promo Code required |
Market and currency are part of the offer
The match package uses USD, while the UK package uses GBP and pence. Do not convert one market's amount and assume the same rules apply elsewhere; use the package attached to your registration location.
How the $1,000 match works and what you need to wager
For the New Jersey and Michigan package, 100% means the deposit match equals your deposit, up to a maximum bonus of $1,000. The minimum deposit is $10. The extra $25 bonus on the house is part of the advertised package, but the 15× wagering rule is stated specifically for the deposit-match bonus amount.
- Deposit $10 and the match portion is $10.
- Deposit $100 and the match portion is $100.
- Deposit $1,000 and the match reaches the $1,000 cap.
- A deposit above $1,000 does not create a match above $1,000.
The deposit-match bonus carries a 15× wagering requirement before withdrawal. That calculation uses the bonus amount, not the deposit amount. For example, a $100 match creates $1,500 of required wagering, while a $1,000 match creates $15,000.
The bonus balance is held separately from your cash balance in the wallet. That makes it easier to see which funds belong to the promotion. Before you play, check whether your intended games contribute enough towards the requirement, because the game type makes a real difference.

Which games count towards the wagering requirement
Not every casino game contributes at the same rate. Slots, scratch cards and virtual sports contribute 100%, while table and card games can contribute a smaller share or zero. That means a $1,500 requirement is not cleared by simply placing $1,500 on any game.
| Game type | Contribution | How to read it |
|---|---|---|
| Slots | 100% | $100 wagered counts as $100 |
| Scratch cards | 100% | $100 wagered counts as $100 |
| Virtual sports | 100% | $100 wagered counts as $100 |
| Video poker | 20% | $100 wagered counts as $20 |
| Blackjack | 10% | $100 wagered counts as $10 |
| Roulette, baccarat, craps and dice | 0% | Wagers do not reduce the requirement |
Roulette, baccarat, craps and dice contribute 0%
These games can still be part of the casino, but wagers on them do not help clear the deposit-match requirement. If you are working through a match, the contribution table is worth checking first.
The UK welcome package uses a separate rule. You wager £10 once on eligible casino games within 7 days of registration, with slots contributing 100%. Live Casino and Table Games are excluded from that requirement. Winnings from the UK spins have no wagering requirement and are paid as cash, while the spins remain valid for 3 days after they are credited.
There is one more UK detail that is easy to miss: play made with existing bonus funds does not count towards the £10 welcome-offer wagering requirement. Use the cash and bonus balances carefully so you know which play is qualifying.
How to register and activate the welcome offer
The registration process combines account details, identity checks and location checks. Have your information ready before starting. It keeps the process tidy and helps you see the correct market offer from the beginning.
Select Sign Up from the top-right area of the homepage or app. The mobile website works equivalently to the app, with iOS, Android and Windows compatibility.
Provide a valid email address, date of birth, full name, phone number and a password. The minimum age is 21 in most US states, with 18 applying in Washington D.C., Rhode Island, New Hampshire, Montana and Kentucky.
The account may ask for proof of identity and address. UK documents include a driving licence, passport or bank statement. US verification includes a driving licence or utility bill, as well as the last four digits of a Social Security Number.
Choose the welcome package attached to your market and complete the opt-in during registration where the offer requires it. The UK and listed US state welcome offers do not require a Promo Code.
The main match requires at least $10, while the UK package requires at least £10. Most deposits are processed instantly, and the maximum deposit is $10,000.
Bonus funds are shown separately from cash. Confirm the match amount, wagering target and expiry period, then choose games that contribute at the rate you need.
Location is checked with geolocation software, and VPN use is not permitted. Once your Login is ready, two-factor authentication is available as an extra account security option.
Expiry, wallet rules and withdrawal conditions
The welcome offer is easier to manage when you treat the expiry date as part of its value. Most bonuses expire 7 days after crediting, while some daily promotions expire at the end of the day. The UK spin package has its own timetable: the £10 wagering must be completed within 7 days of registration, and the spins are valid for 3 days once credited.
| Term | Match package | UK package |
|---|---|---|
| Minimum deposit | $10 | £10 |
| Wagering | 15× the bonus amount | £10 wagered 1× on eligible casino games |
| Main expiry | Most bonuses expire 7 days after credit | Requirement within 7 days; spins valid 3 days after credit |
| Maximum withdrawal | $50,000 | $50,000 |
| Bonus wallet | Bonus funds kept separate from cash | Existing bonus funds do not count towards the UK requirement |
The maximum withdrawal is $50,000, and there is no win limit. A closed-loop policy sends withdrawals back to the original deposit source. New players cannot withdraw to an e-wallet until a card has been used for a deposit.
Verification can affect the point at which a withdrawal is completed. The requested documents can include a driving licence, passport or bank statement, along with your full name, date of birth, phone number, proof of identity and address. For US accounts, the last four digits of a Social Security Number are also required.
Processing depends on the method. Listed timings include 2-3 days for Visa and Mastercard, 1 day for PayPal, 1-3 days for Venmo, 2-5 working days for bank transfer and instant processing for Play+. Overall processing can take up to 3-4 business days depending on the method, while UK Visa and Mastercard withdrawals take 3-5 business days, UK PayPal takes 24-48 hours and UK bank transfer takes 2-5 working days.
Keep the original deposit method available
The closed-loop rule and the card-first condition for new e-wallet users make the original payment method important. Check the Withdrawal method and complete any requested identity step before planning a cashout.
What BetMGM Rewards adds after your first offer
The welcome package is only one part of the account benefits. New members join BetMGM Rewards automatically at Sapphire, earning iRP points and Tier Credits from every wager on casino games and sports. Points can be exchanged for free play, perks and exclusive hotel and resort discounts at MGM properties.
| Tier | Points to unlock | Perks |
|---|---|---|
| Sapphire | 0 | $5 birthday bonus and $5 anniversary bonus |
| Pearl | 20,000 | $10 birthday bonus and $10 anniversary bonus |
| Gold | 75,000 | $25 birthday bonus, $25 anniversary bonus and improved customer support |
| Platinum | 200,000 | $100 birthday bonus, $100 anniversary bonus and improved customer support |
| Noir | Invite-only | $200 birthday bonus, $200 anniversary bonus, improved customer support and a dedicated VIP host |
Poker wagers can earn points only in some states. For welcome-bonus planning, keep the deposit match separate from Rewards: the match has its own wagering target, while points and Tier Credits build through the loyalty programme.
Five checks to make before you deposit
A welcome bonus can look simple at first glance, but the small conditions decide how useful it is for your playing style. Honestly, this is the part most people skip. Take a minute to run through these checks before pressing the deposit button.
- Confirm the market and currency attached to the offer: New Jersey and Michigan use the $1,000 match package, while the UK package uses £10 and 10p spins.
- Work out the match portion and multiply it by 15 to estimate the wagering target.
- Choose games with a contribution rate that suits the requirement; roulette, baccarat, craps and dice contribute 0%.
- Note the expiry date, especially the 7-day period used by most bonuses and the shorter 3-day validity for credited UK spins.
- Keep your original deposit method and verification documents available for any later Withdrawal request.
You can also set a deposit limit, use a cool-off period, turn on Reality Check reminders or activate self-exclusion tools. These controls are available alongside GameSense responsible-gambling education. Gambling uses real money, so choose an amount you can afford to lose and treat the bonus as entertainment rather than a reason to chase losses.
If you need help while registering, English live chat operates 24/7 with an average response time of 2 minutes. Email support and a Help Centre are also available. Account data in transit is protected by 256-bit SSL encryption, with advanced firewalls and audited certified Random Number Generators also in place.
Claim only after the numbers make sense
Check the market, calculate the wagering target and make sure the expiry window fits your budget and playing time.
