The Los Angeles Chargers are set to take on the Jacksonville Jaguars in the NFL Wild Card this weekend, and we have a BetMGM bonus code ALBONUS50 that provides a $50 free bet and first-bet insurance up to $1,000 for any new bettors who sign up before the game kicks off.

BetMGM bonus code: Get $50 free bet and up to $1,000 first-bet insurance for Chargers vs. Jaguars Wild Card matchup

BetMGM is welcoming all new bettors with a $1,000 bonus code and a $50 free bet just in time for the NFL playoffs to kick off.

The deal works by guaranteeing 100% refunds in the form of bet credits up to $1,000 for any missed first bets.

So, if a customer signs up using the BetMGM bonus code and misses their first bet of $250, they will receive $250 in bet credits. This allows them to jump right back into the action without missing a beat.

• Visit BetMGM Sportsbook and click “Register”.
• Enter your personal details into the empty boxes and enter BetMGM bonus codeALBONUS50.

Once you have completed these steps, you will receive a $50 free bet while being enrolled in BetMGM’s $1,000 welcome bonus offer.

Any bet credits earned during the deal will arrive in your account within 24 hours and must be used within seven days, or else they will expire.

Customers who make first-time wagers of $50 or more will receive five bets, each worth 20% of the amount they risked (for a 100% total). Those who bet $49 or less will be given a single bet credit worth the amount of their first wager.

BetMGM bonus code: Chargers vs. Jaguars betting preview and NFL Wild Card promos

The Chargers hit the road to take on the Jaguars in Duval County in a Saturday Wild Card matchup.

The Jaguars already thumped the Chargers 38-10 near the start of the season and enter the playoffs riding a five-game win streak, including a division-clinching win over their rivals, the Tennessee Titans, in Week 18.

The Chargers have not been as fortunate, having failed to gain any sort of continuity this season and being dealt an injury to deep-ball threat Mike Williams in Week 18.

This matchup will be headlined by the quarterback battle between Justin Herbert and Trevor Lawrence, but it could be decided by the defenses.

Jacksonville is giving up just 7.3 points per game across the last three weeks, while LA has given up an also-impressive 14.7 during the same stretch.

BetMGM customers will be able to redeem an array of other promotions in addition to the welcome bonus during the NFL Wild Card, including:

• First-touchdown scorer: Win back up to $25 in bet credits for missed first-touchdown bets.
• One-game parlay insurance: Receive your stake (up to $25) back for parlays of 4+ legs that miss by one leg.
• Edit my bet: Make alterations to your bets, including parlays, even after they have been placed.
