- Sports betting is legal in so many states now, making apps and websites the best way to place your bets.
- There are tons of different ways to bet, but DraftKings and
FanDuel are two of the top sportsbooks.
- Read below to see why they’re both winners — and why our editors who started with DraftKings either switched to FanDuel or downloaded it, too.
There’s nothing like a good wager to spice up a sports game. Especially if your favorite team is the underdog and you’re all in to rally for, it can be a real rush.
Now that sports betting is legal in more states than only a couple years ago, there’s been an influx of ads with cool offers and celebrity endorsements telling you where to place your bets.
A bunch of our editors took advantage of a number of sportsbooks’ new-user offers, but two standouts are DraftKings and FanDuel.
The offers are awesome. But we found that everyone who initially signed up for DraftKings also ended up downloading FanDuel. However, most people who started with FanDuel didn’t necessarily get DraftKings.
Here’s everything you need to know about the new world of sports betting and how FanDuel Sportsbook does it best:
Bet Anywhere, Any Time
Break out your phone at the game itself or halfway through a skydive. FanDuel Sportsbook is available on your computer, phone, and other smart devices, 24/7 with all the sports and all kinds of bets.
Unlike some competitors, it’s got an easy-to-use interface and handily outlines current offers and all your current bets. Placing bets on your bathroom breaks has never been so simple.
They’ve also got better odds than DraftKings and more live betting features, so keeping your eye on the game has never been so high stakes.
