BetMGM bonus code ALBONUS50: How to claim your $1,550 bonus offer for Bengals vs. Browns

To claim this two-part offer, all you have to do is sign up with our BetMGM bonus code link and code ALBONUS50, deposit at least $10, and place your initial wager of $10 or more on any event.

That first bet entitles you to a guaranteed $50 bonus bet, whether your wager wins or loses.

If it does lose, BetMGM will give you a 100% match back in bonus bets of up to $1,500 for you to try again.

Here’s how you can get signed up in a few quick steps:

• Open our BetMGM bonus code link and click Register.
• Fill in the required fields, including code ALBONUS50. If you click our link, it will already be there.
• Deposit at least $10 via your preferred method.
• Bet $10 or more on Ohio rumble or any other event with your first wager.

You’ll get a guaranteed $50 bonus with that qualifying first wager. If your bet misses, your losses will also be matched in bonus bets up to $1,500 to try again.

If the bonus is awarded and your initial stake was $50 or more, the bonus bets will be paid out in five 20% increments. If your first wager is $49 or less, you’ll receive one bonus bet matching your stake.

Bonus bets will be credited to your account within 24 hours of your initial bet loss. They will be good for seven days on any event on BetMGM Sportsbook’s extensive menu.

Kickoff is at noon CT on CBS.
