Caesars Sportsbook

How does it match up against other bonuses?

Quite well. A matched bonus or 100% bonus on a first wager is pretty much the industry standard right now.

But the fact that there are no playthrough/turnover requirements or minimum odds on this bonus means you have more freedom to bet on what you like and then to take it out as real winnings.

What about promos? Is it just the bonus or is there more to offer?

Caesars Sportsbook promos stand up to most competitors. They're really competing on a similar level to the big betting sites like DraftKings Sportsbook or FanDuel Sportsbook. Although for sheer variety I put them in third position. Still, it gives your play a variety and opportunity not seen with other books.

Look out for a daily odds boost on major markets or "Profits for the People" promos on specific lines. Caesars Rewards also gives you the chance to win prizes and added extras which I think spices things up a bit more.

How does the bonus work?

Register a new account and make sure to enter the promo code XXXX in order to stipulate you want to claim a bonus with your new account.

The range of the bonus is $10-$1,250 in bonus and you have 30 days to make your first wager. It normally takes 2 days for your bonus to arrive in your account and then you have 14 days to use the bet credits!

The bonus you'll receive reflects how much you place on your first wager and is to be used for another single wager. For example, I placed a $50 wager and received $50 in bonus and this allowed me to place another wager for the same amount on any line for a sport of my choice.

Regardless of if you win or lose that wager you'll also get Tier Credits to be used as part of the Caesars Rewards system.

Does the bonus work in every state?

Yes. The Caesars Sportsbook bonus is available in every state where Caesars is legal. Unlike other sportsbooks the bonus is the same for every state.These are the states where you can claim the Caesars Sportsbook bonus: AZ, CO, IL, IN, IA, KS, LA, MA, MD, MI, NJ, NY, OH, PA, TN, VA, WV, WY.

We've already talked about bonuses, promos, but how good is the rewards program?

I'm more of a straight sports betting type of guy but I know colleagues and friends who've signed up to Caesars and enjoy those added extras. Much like with DraftKings and BetMGM, Caesars has a huge, multifaceted rewards system. If you're looking for those added extras choosing one of the big books is for you and Caesars delivers this.

VERDICT: This is an uncomplicated and potentially large bonus that's available for everyone. A great option.

Caesars is recognized as an official NFL, NBA and NHL betting partner and odds provider but does this really make a difference to the variety they offer for major American sports? Yes.

Daily Odds Boosts for major American sports are a common feature that compete well with DraftKings and FanDuel and are better in offerings than say, BetMGM.

Live Odds on Caesars Sportsbook feels like it's lagging slightly behind compared to others (FanDuel Sportsbook, DraftKings Sportsbook). I think FanDuel is a prize pick for me here - both for the range of odds and ease of use. FanDuel will show you where odds prices are rising or falling with a helpful red/green border whereas with Caesars you need to have an eagle eye to see shifting lines.

PRICING: I compared pre-game odds on NBA games for the next day and European soccer odds across leagues to give you an idea across the board. I found the pricing of odds to be consistently competitive with both FanDuel Sportsbook and DraftKings Sportsbook.

VERDICT: Caesars Sportsbook is a top of the line betting site for odds pricing, availability and consistency. It stands up against the big boys of US betting. Definitely recommend.

Deposit and withdrawal methods really differ depending on which state you reside in. You can find a full list just below if you click here.

What I do like is their support has a dedicated PAYMENTS section with all the info you need laid out right there.

How fast are their payouts compared to competitors?

This is a tough one to judge. In my experience Caesars have always been pretty consistent. Payouts depend on what method of withdrawal you choose but Caesars Sportsbook tends to pay out from 2-5 business days. That leaves it a long time to wait if you hit a win on a Friday night but then this is comparable to most books.

VERDICT: I use Caesars Sportsbook on a regular basis and have never had any issues. Though if you do have an issue, their two stage dispute system is pretty transparent and consistent.

Offers live chat, email, phone and an FAQ/guide section of their website and app dedicated to more common queries.

This is a pretty standard offering for one of the bigger books but the only thing you need to really know is that support is available 24/7 via their live chat option.

Personally I find it clean and easy to navigate. I love the simplicity of how the odds and sports are laid out. It makes it easy to get access to odds from different points - sports, boosts, live.

In contrast to other apps I like that it isn't throwing up too much at the plate as soon as you login and the dark/light toggle is a great addition.

Taking a look at some App Store and Google Play reviews a few people have complained about location issues stalling their progress but I personally have never had any issues with the app.

VERDICT: One of the better betting platforms I've used recently.
