The final week of the 2024 NFL preseason is upon us, and the Las Vegas Raiders and San Francisco 49ers will close their schedules with a meeting in Allegiant Stadium this Friday night. While the regular season may still be weeks away, there won’t be any shortage of NFL betting this weekend – the preseason is football, after all, and football draws plenty of attention at sportsbooks.
Of course, this makes the Raiders-49ers matchup a perfectly viable opportunity to check out the numerous sportsbook bonuses available to first-time bettors at American betting operators. Each of these licensed sportsbooks offers a high-quality betting experience to new players – we’ll cover their respective welcome bonuses, and how to use them, below.

How to redeem betting bonuses for Raiders vs. 49ers
The bonuses available from the above betting operators fall into one of two broader categories. One category consists of bet-and-get bonuses, which provide new players with a flat sum of bonus bets when they place their first bet. The other category features first-bet insurance, which provides new players with bonus bets if they swing and miss on their first wager.
Bet-and-get promotions – like those players can find at FanDuel or bet365 – are straightforward. Players only need to sign up, place qualifying bets, and wait for the bonus bets to arrive. Bonus bets awarded via either offer will eventually expire if left unused, but there’s little else that players need to be mindful of when redeeming these offers. As long as their first bets qualify, they’ll receive their bonus bets.
First-bet insurance is slightly more complicated – these offers only reward players if their first bet loses, and the value of the reward scales with the value of the player’s first wager. These offers can be found at Caesars, BetMGM, bet365, and BetRivers. Players who redeem these offers will be given bonus bets to play with – up to varying maximums – if their first bet loses. These offers effectively allow players up to two chances to win with their first wagers, and can be highly valuable to players willing to maximize them.
