Best betting promotions in Manitoba for 2023

The first step to claiming a promotion at a sportsbook is setting up an account with them. This is straightforward to do at most sports betting sites and simply requires you to complete the sign-up form with the information they request.

It is likely that as part of this, you’ll be asked to prove your name and age via documentation such as your personal identification, driving license, or passport, as well as your address through a financial statement or bill. The sportsbook you’re signing up with may also wish to confirm that you’re located in Manitoba via your mobile phone or IP address.

Provided you’ve completed all the required steps, you should then receive your bonus in your betting account. Check the T&Cs to see if there any rules or restrictions for using it (e.g. a free bet that must be used by a certain date).

In the event that you win money from your promotion, you can then withdraw the winnings from your betting account, assuming there are no further wagering requirements to complete.

To do this, head to the cashier/account section at the sportsbook and follow the instructions to place a withdrawal request. If it’s the first time you’re withdrawing money from the sportsbook, you may need to undergo additional steps and verification checks in order to set up the payment method for your account.
