Pros and cons
Fanatics Sportsbook is officially open for business with a welcome bonus that's sure to impress users in legal Fanatics states.
Fanatics Sportsbook sign-up bonus
As a new Fanatics Sportsbook user, you can now claim a '$1,000 in No Sweat Bets' welcome offer — and no Fanatics Sportsbook promo code is required. Here's how it works:
After you create a new account, place a minimum $1 — or up to a $100 maximum — wager on any market with -500 odds or longer each day for your first 10 days of betting with the sportsbook. If your wager settles as a loss, you will receive a bonus equal to your qualifying stake, up to $100. Your promotional window begins after you place your first wager.
To receive the full bonus, you must place the maximum $100 bet on each of your first 10 days of betting. If you miss a day, you forfeit your bonus for that day. Keep in mind each bonus bet expires seven days after issuance.
I would recommend snatching this bonus up today, as the limited-time offer expires on May 31, 2025.
FanCash
The Fanatics loyalty program is based around FanCash which is warned for every wager you place and is redeemable at the Fanatics website for sports merchandise. The amount of FanCash is based on the odds of your wager — 1% for -110 and a maximum of 10% for -6000 — win or lose.
Deposit options
Payment methods at Fanatics Sportsbook vary by state, and no credit cards are currently accepted. Instant bank transfer and Apple Pay are the easiest deposit options at the moment.

Fanatics Sportsbook is powered by software and source code from sports betting tech provider Amelco. Experienced sports bettors may recognize the name, as Amelco serves several active and discontinued sportsbooks in the U.S., including FOX Bet, PlayUp, and WynnBET.
Users can expect a safe and secure betting experience that includes the following key features:
Live betting
Nothing is better than watching your favorite team play and betting in real-time. The live betting at Fanatics Sportsbook allows you to get in on the action while the game is underway and track all the popular props, over/under totals, and more.
Live streaming
Fanatics live streaming is a serious differentiator, as the user experience can only be defined as elite. You can watch games on your phone, then toggle into the platform to log as bet as you analyze the situation. Football fans can rejoice knowing that NFL live streaming is available on Fanatics Sportsbook.
Fanatics Fair Play
Fanatics Sportsbook offers a discretionary house rule policy called Fair Play. The policy applies to player prop bets for all professional sports and voids wagers — including parlay legs — that have been impacted by player injury during a certain timeframe. For example, if you wager on an NFL player who leaves with an injury before the end of the first quarter and doesn't return, your bet will be refunded or settled as a win.
Early cash out
Interested in booking a win while you're ahead? Fanatics allows you to cash in on the favorable position of your wager by cashing out and gaining a profit before the tides turn.
Casino
Fanatics Casino is now live in Michigan, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia. The newly designed online casino real money product features a wide range of classic and popular casino favorites like roulette and slots. The online casino also offers new Fanatics Blackjack games. No Fanatics Casino promo code is required to activate the welcome offer.
Fanatics Sportsbook has mobile sports betting apps available for download in both the App Store and the Google Play store. The Fanatics Sportsbook app has received rave reviews across the board, receiving a 4.7/5 rating on iOS and a 4.5/5 rating on Android.
Every bet you place on the Fanatics Sportsbook app earns you FanCash, which I thought was a nice touch. You have the opportunity to earn up to 10% back based on the size of your wager, win or lose.
Overall, the Fanatics Sportsbook app performs quite well. Load times are reasonable, navigating the app is enjoyable, and there are loads of betting markets to choose from. As of now, Fanatics isn't at the level of FanDuel or DraftKings, but the platform has promise, and I look forward to exploring what new versions of the app have to offer.

It is somewhat surprising how quickly Fanatics Sportsbook has risen through the ranks in a crowded and competitive online sports betting space. With an impressive mobile betting app, NFL live streaming, and a promising FanCash rewards program, Fanatics has certainly captured my attention.
While I would hesitate to mention the sportsbook in the same breath as some of the industry's heavy hitters, I've been thoroughly impressed with Fanatics' sportsbook product and would strongly recommend it as a secondary option in your sports betting app rotation.
