GiddyUp is set to release imminently, and I’ve had some advanced information about what this parimutuel powered gaming site will offer, including a sneak peak at the potential GiddyUp signup bonus for new customers.
If you read on, I’ll let you know what this welcome bonus is and how you will be able to get it. Not only that, but I’ll give you an introduction to how the site works, while also looking at the other promotional features it is set to have, such as the daily free credits, daily quests, and referral scheme.
To understand the promos here, it’s vital to first look at what the site is and how it will work. This is because it’s a relatively niche concept, known as a parimutuel powered gaming operator. The core process at GiddyUp is playing casino-style games like slots and video poker. However, there is a key difference with sweepstakes casinos and real money online casinos.
Where with those sites, the results of the games are determined by Random Number Generator systems, at GiddyUp, the results are determined by results from horse racing wagers. The process is as follows:
Create a GiddyUp account.
Deposit money into your account.
Use that money to purchase credits.
Use those credits to play games.
Easy enough. However, at step 3, when you purchase credits, behind the scenes, GiddyUp will assign those credits to random parimutuel horse racing wager results from around the world. When you then play games, things like your slot spins or video poker hands are simply revealing the results of those horse racing wagers.
From what I understand, your credits will relate to a mix of wager types such as win, place, exacta, and trifecta selections. You can read more about this concept and how the site will work in my initial GiddyUp review.
Although I haven’t been able to test GiddyUp yet, I know that it will have a signup bonus for new customers. Overall, if it is as stated, I think it will give new customers the perfect introduction to this parimutuel powered gaming site and allow you to try out the games and see what it is all about.
The expected GiddyUp welcome bonus is as follows:
So, this is for new customers only who have never registered an account with GiddyUp before. You will also only be able to get the promo once. For context, it looks as if this is a US-only site, available to people over 21 who live in one of these states - AL, CA, CO, CT, DE, FL, KS, ND, NE, NM, NY, OK, RI, WI, and WY. More states could be added in time though once GiddyUp is established.
You’ll get $5 in free credits, which as I explained above, will be assigned a random selection of parimutuel horse racing wager results. It’s then a case of playing with your free credits to reveal the results. Some important T&Cs are as follows:
I do not know the full signup process, but I assume it will be something like this:
Click one of the GiddyUp links on this page.
Click the sign up, register, or join button.
Go through the registration process.
Accept T&Cs if needed.
Finish the form.
Verify your email and/or SMS if needed.
Log in to your new account.
Complete the full KYC check.
It looks as if you will then get your $5 in free credits as soon as you have finished and passed the KYC ID verification check.
The GiddyUp Casino bonus for new customers is a brilliant starting point, but I actually think the other promotions and features I’ve seen look like they will be even better. I’ve had information about several other things like daily free credits, a first purchase bonus, and referral scheme which I will explain below.
I was quite surprised to see this feature, but it is a welcome one, but GiddyUp will feature a daily free credits bonus for all valid customers who have completed the KYC check. I didn’t expect to see anything like this as it is a site where you can deposit money and make purchases. Regardless, there will be a small daily free credits bonus that you will be able to claim once every 24 hours. I do not know how much it will be, but anything is a huge bonus as it will give you more playing potential.
I love a good gamification feature and I’ve been informed that GiddyUp will give you the opportunity to do daily quests to potentially get extra cash into your account. I’ve used features like this before at similar sites and sweepstakes casinos, and I think it adds a little extra excitement, competitiveness, and fun to the overall experience.
From what I understand, there will be a random series of quests that will reset daily, and they will typically involve things like making a set number of plays or spins on a game, playing a certain game, or making credits purchases. You’ll get cash rewards delivered directly to your account for completing these quests, but there will be a playthrough requirement before the bonus funds are withdrawable.
Like other similar sites and online casinos, I’ve been told that GiddyUp will have a refer-a-friend scheme where you have the chance to get your friends involved in the action and potentially get a referral bonus in the process. This scheme will work as follows:
Log in to your GiddyUp account.
Click on the relevant referral link.
Copy your unique referral code/link.
Send it to a friend.
Your friend has to sign up using the code/link.
They then have to deposit at least $20.
You will get a $10 referral bonus.
I think this is straightforward and it’s similar to how most other referral programs work. I like that your friend only has to make a $20 deposit for you to get your $10 referral bonus, as with some schemes, there is also a playthrough requirement. It doesn’t look like there is a maximum number of people you can refer either, so this could be a brilliant bonus feature to capitalize on. Please note that I believe that both you and your referees will have to fully verify your ID via the KYC check before you will be able to use the referral program.
Similar to how many sweepstakes casinos do, GiddyUp will have a first purchase bonus for their credit packages. I believe this will be a one-time purchase only, so once you’ve bought it, it won’t show anymore:
This will be known as the starter boost and I assume that it will either appear as a pop-up, or you will be able to see the offer clearly in the credits store. After making the purchase, the bonus credits will be added to your account instantly, and you’ll be able to use them to play the casino-style games with. I’ll definitely be getting this GiddyUp promo - there’s really no reason not to if you intend to buy credits here.
I need GiddyUp to hurry up and launch so I can test this interesting new concept and see if this parimutuel powered games site meets my expectations. I hope it will, and things look promising with the stated GiddyUp signup bonus where you can get $5 in free credits just for registering an account. That, on its own, is a great promotion, but from what I’ve seen, the other features like the daily free credits, referral scheme, and daily quests will be just as exciting.
You can’t sign up to the site yet, but you can be assured that I will keep this page updated and provide links and banners that you will be able to use as soon as it is launched. I will also provide additional information about the promotions and other features once I’ve been able to do proper testing.
GiddyUp will only be available to US residents who are over 21. Additionally, at launch, it will only be available in these states - AL, CA, CO, CT, DE, FL, KS, ND, NE, NM, NY, OK, RI, WI, and WY.
I don’t think so. It looks as if to get the welcome bonus you will just need to register a new account and verify your ID, and you’ll then get a $5 no deposit bonus of credits that you can use to play the casino-style games with.
No. GiddyUp is not an online sportsbook. It is a parimutuel powered games site where you can play casino-style games. Also, I do not think there will be any type of GiddyUp promo code for the bonuses and features it has.
It looks like there won’t be a deposit bonus for GiddyUp at launch. You should be able to get a first purchase bonus though, where you can get an additional 25% in credits for purchases of up to $50 after you’ve created an account and completed the KYC check.
Yes. From the information I’ve had, this parimutuel powered games site will operate under an Advanced Deposit Wagering license provided by the Oregon Racing Commission and will legally offer its services to customers over 21 in AL, CA, CO, CT, DE, FL, KS, ND, NE, NM, NY, OK, RI, WI, and WY.
