Polymarket offers double bonus for new users betting on MLB World Series futures
New registrants on Polymarket can claim a $20 trading credit after depositing $10, usable on World Series futures markets.
Polymarket, a U.S.-based prediction-market exchange, is advertising a welcome offer that doubles a new user's initial $10 deposit into a $20 trading bonus when the promo code NYPMAX1 is used at registration. The bonus can be applied to futures contracts on the Major League Baseball World Series, where the Los Angeles Dodgers lead the market with roughly a one-third chance of winning. Eligibility is limited to residents of a specified list of states and to participants aged 18 or older, with certain jurisdictions excluded.
The platform notes its popularity stems from spotlighting high-interest topics such as political elections, entertainment debates and breaking news. Additional commentary from a analyst at one outlet discusses the Dodgers' strong position and upcoming pitcher returns. Users are reminded that trading involves significant risk and that the offer is not available everywhere.
Why it matters
The bonus lets casual fans try prediction markets with reduced risk, potentially expanding interest in sports betting.
