Before we get rolling and reporting where you can find the best sportsbook bonuses we’d like to give a disclaimer and an added note of interest that may change the way you think about sports betting.
First of all, in case you’re not aware, the sports betting industry works off small margins. It’s not economically possible for a book to give away the house and still make a profit so we’d like to caution you against playing with sportsbooks that are offering real cash incentives that are “too good to be true” because they most likely are just that! No, we do not advertise any of these joints. We only promote the cream of the crop.
Second, we’d like to advise you that sometimes a bonus isn’t the best way to go. What we’re getting at is that if your to play at reduced vig sportsbooks you will save a heck of a lot more than you will ever gain in receiving a bonus, even a big one. Just some food for thought! On to the promotions, incentives and bonus offers!
Intertops – Receive a 50% bonus on your deposit of $100 to $400! (Max bonus is $200) To receive the bonus, you will need to wager through your initial deposit 1x or more and then email customer service to request your 50 percent bonus be added. Every time you place a wager, you accrue points. These points can be redeemed for FREE bets! This is the ultimate rewards/loyalty program as there is no limit to the amount of points/bonuses you can earn! Intertops is one of the oldest and most trusted sportsbooks on the interweb.

Note: You get a choice of accepting a bonus or signing up for “reduced juice” wagering. If you’re a person who is going to be betting a lot of games, TAKE THE REDUCED JUICE!
