Fanatics Sportsbook is offering new users a promotion that matches their initial deposit in FanCash, up to $1,000, for the upcoming NFL preseason game between the Carolina Panthers and the Arizona Cardinals. To qualify for this offer, new customers must use the promo code NYPOST26 during sign-up.

The NFL preseason officially begins with the Hall of Fame Game. The promotion allows new bettors to place wagers on various sports, including MLB games, the WNBA, and the forthcoming NFL season. The offer is accessible to individuals physically located in Arizona, Connecticut, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Maryland, Michigan, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Vermont, West Virginia, Washington D.C., and Wyoming.

To activate the welcome offer, users should select their bonus, choose their state, fill in their login details, and enter the promo code NYPOST26. A deposit is then required. According to projections, the Cardinals are anticipated to be the league's lowest-ranked team this season, with an expected win total around 3.5. The Panthers, who reached the postseason last year and narrowly lost to the Rams in the Wild Card round, have a projected win total of 7.5.

While it is unlikely that the starting players for either team will see significant playing time during the preseason game, rookie running back Jeremiyah Love is noted as a player to watch for the Cardinals. The terms for the promotion require new customers in eligible states to apply the promotion in their bet slip and place a minimum $1 cash wager daily for 10 consecutive days, starting from their account creation date. This wager must have minimum odds of -200. The FanCash rewards will match the amount of the qualifying wager, with a maximum of $100 FanCash issued per day. The FanCash awarded under this promotion expires seven days after issuance, at 11:59 p.m. ET. Further terms and conditions, including those specific to FanCash, can be found on the Fanatics Sportsbook app.
