Polymarket Offers New Users $25 Bonus for NBA Season Opener

New users on the prediction market platform Polymarket can receive a $25 trading bonus by depositing $10 and using the promo code NYPMAX1. This offer is available for the opening week of the NBA season.

The promotion coincides with the start of a new NBA season, featuring marquee matchups such as the Timberwolves versus the Heat.

How the Bonus Works

To claim the offer, new users must enter the promo code NYPMAX1 during sign-up and make a $10 deposit. This action triggers a $25 trading bonus, which can be used on various markets, including the Timberwolves vs. Heat game or any other sports events available on Wednesday's schedule. The Polymarket promo code NYPMAX1 is accessible via the Polymarket mobile app. The offer is valid for eligible new users in states including Alaska, Alabama, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Iowa, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Minnesota, Missouri, Mississippi, North Carolina, North Dakota, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Vermont, Virginia, West Virginia, Wisconsin, and the District of Columbia.

Notable Matchups

The Timberwolves vs. Heat game highlights significant team changes. The Heat will feature Giannis Antetokounmpo, a two-time MVP, who joins the team after a period of speculation. He will play under coach Erik Spoelstra.

The Timberwolves, meanwhile, have acquired LaMelo Ball. His unconventional style of play has previously generated highlight reels, and this season marks his first opportunity to compete on a team with championship expectations under coach Chris Finch.
