Launched on Tuesday, the FanDuel Sportsbook app features a special risk-free first bet up to $1,000 for new customers in Connecticut. FanDuel will refund the amount of a customer’s first wager, up to $1,000, within 72 hours.

The FanDuel Sportsbook app in Connecticut is simple, secure, and convenient, with a number of key features, including:
- New Way to Parlay: FanDuel is the only U.S. sportsbook with Same Game Parlay™ bets, which is the ability to build a parlay utilizing betting markets from the same game.
- An Innovative Spirit: FanDuel was the first U.S. sportsbook to offer live streaming of sporting events inside a betting app, was the first to offer Bad Beat Relief, early payouts for championship teams, and the first to offer its crowdsourced Spread the Love promotion.
- More Markets, More Bet Types: FanDuel Group offers more bet types and markets on all major sports than any other sportsbook in the market
- Commitment to Responsible Gaming: FanDuel is the industry leader in promoting responsible play, including in-app tools that allow customers to set time, deposit and wager limits, as well as its PlaySafe site where customers can find additional support services.
- Sports Betting 101: FanDuel Sportsbook has an online betting guide to help customers learn the ins and outs of legal sports betting.
