How Do No-Sweat Bets Work

Gamblers encounter a lot of information about new-user promotions between casino games, racebooks, and sportsbooks, and sometimes the details are confusing. However, if that's the case for you and FanDuel's No-Sweat First Bet, you've come to the right place. Read on to learn more.

Fast, Free, & Fun First Bets Await FanDuelers

Gamblers placing their first bet at FanDuel are eligible for what the sportsbook calls a "No-Sweat First Bet," or simply, a free first bet. This hassle, worry-free wager ensures players can experience sports betting without fear of losing their cash completely. Below, we've shared the steps to claiming your No-Sweat First Bet.

  • New FanDuel users must create a free account before claiming any offers or even making a deposit. Follow the on-screen prompts to generate your login details.
  • After completing registration and logging in, players must make a deposit between $10 and $1,000. Make your free bet count by depositing as much as possible.
  • FanDuel's No-Sweat Bets allow gamblers to reclaim losses if their first bet fails, so making the wager as large as possible within the platform's limits makes sense.
  • After placing the bet and watching the culmination of the contest in question, successful users will receive their winnings and the value of their initial bet in their accounts. These funds are available for withdrawal.
  • Placing a losing bet is never fun, but No-Sweat First Bet users will see the value of the wager reappear in their account as FanDuel credit; make one large or several small bets in hopes of a more successful outcome next time.

Not-So-Risk-Free-Bets Await Depositors

While users hoping to receive the value of their deposit back in cash after a lost No-Sweat bet may be disappointed in the offer's fine print, FanDuel users who are in it for entertainment will love having the chance to try their luck again. Entertainment -is- the point of wagering, after all.
