Bet365 Kentucky Promo – Get $200 Bonus Bets in June

Bet365 Kentucky bonus code for June 2023

To claim the Bet365 bonus, create an account and place a bet of $1 or more. You’ll then receive $200 in bonus bets, regardless of whether your qualifying wager wins. You don’t need a code to claim this sign-up bonus; follow a link on this page to create your account, and you’re good to go.

Maximizing the Bet365 welcome bonus

Once you’ve created an account at Bet365 KY, the next step is to deposit some money into your account ($10 minimum). Once you’ve done that, place a bet of your choice for at least $1. You’ll then receive $200 in bet credits. You can use these credits on any subsequent wager by clicking “use bet credits” on the bet slip instead of staking your own money. You can divide the credits over multiple wagers if you wish.

You may not withdraw any of the bonus funds that you receive. Instead, you must use the credits to wager. For any bets that you place using the credits, you only receive the profit on a winning bet, not the profit plus your original wager amount. You must claim the welcome bonus within 30 days of opening your account, and you have an additional 90 days to use the bonus before it expires. Finally, your initial qualifying wager must contain at least one selection with odds of -500 or longer.

When is Bet365 launching in Kentucky?

Bet365 Sportsbook could launch in Kentucky sometime in 2023. On March 31, Beshear signed House Bill 551 into law, legalizing online sports betting in the state. Although this legislation passed in March, it is effective June 28, with the bill requiring legal sports betting to be live within six months of that date. Therefore, if the state meets that deadline, Kentucky is looking at legal sports betting by Dec. 28 at the latest. Then we’ll have to see if Bet365 will be available at that initial launch.

Getting started at Bet365 Sportsbook in Kentucky

Registering for an account at Bet365 should take just a few minutes. To start with, head to the online sportsbook and enter the following details:

• Name
• Social Security number
• Date of birth
• Address
• Email
• Username
• Password

Bet365 will use this information to confirm your identity and that you can legally bet from where you are located. It’s looking like the minimum age to bet on sports in Kentucky will be 18, though that may change as we move closer to the launch date. Regardless, should Bet365 launch in Kentucky, you will need to be located within state lines to place any bets.

Bet365 Kentucky app and rating (4.7/5)

Bet365’s app is available for both Apple and Android users as a free download from the App Store or Google Play Store, respectively. Bet365’s sports betting app is not at all flashy, but it performs well and has all the features most sports bettors are looking for. Here is how it measures up in a few key areas:

• Ease of logging in: 5/5. Biometric login (touch/face ID) is available, making logging in quick and easy.
• Ease of placing bets: 4.5/5. The app’s bet slip is clean and dense, displaying up to six bets on the screen at once. Some users may find the display over-crowded, however.
• Overall speed: 4/5. The app generally responds quickly, but we noticed some bugs.
• Parlays: 5/5. Adding multiple bets to your slip defaults to parlays, making building parlays faster and easier.
• Single-game parlays: 4.5/5. SGPs are easy to build, and you can even place SGPs on live games.
• Overall: 4.7/5. Bet365’s sportsbook app is solid overall. Putting aside a few minor bugs, it holds most of what a typical sports bettor is looking for. 

Bet365 Sportsbook vs Tipico Sportsbook

The table below measures Bet365 Sportsbook against another potential Kentucky sports betting option in Tipico.

Bet365 and Tipico Sportsbook are both solid betting options. Each offers regular promotions, and odds boosts. However, Bet365 outperforms Tipico in a few categories. For example, Tipico does not offer same-game parlays. Furthermore, Bet365’s live betting platform is superior. On the other hand, Tipico offers a welcome bonus with a slightly higher maximum ($100), though it is a deposit-matching bonus, so claiming that maximum would require a larger deposit. Both of these sportsbooks are worth checking out to see if either or both are what you are looking for.

Live betting at Bet365 online sports betting

Bet365’s live betting platform is one of the online sportsbook’s strengths. To find all the live betting options, click the “Live In Game” option at the top of the page. From there, you can browse each sport and league that is available to live bet on.

Bet365’s live betting menu is one of the most extensive in sports betting. You can bet on in-progress games of everything from traditional US sports like football and basketball to niche international options like cricket and table tennis. The display for each game will show updated stats.

Another highlight of Bet365’s live betting platform is the option to stream select games straight from the app. For those games where live streaming is not available, Bet365 will display a simulated animation that you can check for updates. With a basketball game, for example, the display will show the score, game clock, which team has possession and every time there is a shot taken, turnover or stoppage in play.

Finally, Bet365 is one of the first sportsbooks to offer same-game parlays in live betting. Usually, you would have to build your SGP before the game begins, but with Bet365, you can create and bet on SGPs while the game is taking place.

Other bets at Bet365

Traditional sports bettors can also place all the classic sports bets before the game starts at the Bet365 Sportsbook. This includes moneylines, spreads, totals, futures, and prop bets. These traditional bets are available for almost every sport and every league that Bet365 offers.

Bet365 also offers sports betting on Kentucky-based teams like the University of Kentucky and University of Louisville, both of which are big in the state, particularly when March Madness rolls around.

How to contact Bet365 customer service

How to set limits at Bet365

As with every regulated sportsbook, Bet365 features a responsible gambling page where you can learn about safer betting habits. This information is available on both the sportsbook app and website. Bet365 also offers a variety of spending controls to help users keep track of their betting habits:

• Activity tracker: Bet365 tracks your activity — financial transactions, win/loss history, time spent on the app — to help you understand your tendencies and potentially identify a gambling problem early.
• Spending limits: You can set limits on how much you deposit and wager at Bet365, along with how much time you spend on the app.
• Timeouts: Activating this will prohibit you from depositing funds or placing bets until the set time period is over. You will still be able to withdraw funds, though.
• Self-exclusion: If you feel your gambling has become a problem, you may proactively self-exclude from the app, essentially banning yourself from using the platform. Once you’ve sent a self-exclusion request, you can’t reverse it.

Bet365 Kentucky Sportsbook in-person locations and partnerships

Bet365 does not yet operate any retail sports betting locations in Kentucky. However, it is likely only a matter of time before brick-and-mortar options begin to pop up. In January of 2023, Bet365 entered into a multi-year partnership with Churchill Downs Inc., granting the sportsbook online access in Pennsylvania.

As legal sports betting launches in Kentucky, we could see the Bet365 and Churchill Downs partnership expand into the Bluegrass State, with the potential of Bet365 to become a partner of the Kentucky Derby and other major events at Churchill Downs, as well as possibly a Bet365 retail location at the racetrack.
