DraftKings Sportsbook is run by DraftKings Inc., one of the two largest US sportsbooks. With matched betting you use its promos (bonus bets, second chance bets, profit boosts) and hedge each bet at a second sportsbook or on ProphetX, so the result no longer depends on who wins. The Bet Finder compares DraftKings with the other sportsbooks in your state and shows the best pair of odds for each promo, and the current DraftKings promos below come with step-by-step guides. On NinjaBet.com DraftKings is also half of the free version of the Bet Finder: a free account can already pair DraftKings with ProphetX to complete its first offer.
How do you use DraftKings for matched betting?
- Open an account with DraftKings in a state where it is licensed, and check the promo terms (minimum odds, eligible markets, expiry).
- Place the qualifying bet and hedge it with the stake the Bet Finder or the matched betting calculator gives you, in Cash mode.
- Convert the bonus bet, second chance bet or profit boost you receive the same way, in Bonus Bet, 2nd Chance or Boost mode (see how to convert bonus bets).
- Log every bet in the Bet Tracker.
You must be 21 or older (18 in a few states) and located in a state where DraftKings is licensed to bet. Gambling can be addictive: call or text 1-800-GAMBLER for free, confidential help. Earnings from promos are an estimate rather than a promise.
