New Yorkers have finally stepped into the world of mobile sports betting yesterday after four mobile sportsbooks launched successfully in the State. Amongst these operators are two of the biggest names in Daily Fantasy Sports (DFS), who are close competitors in the industry.

Let’s look at what each operator is offering new players, and how you can sign up and get your hand on their welcome bonuses today!

DraftKings Sportsbook Betting App

DraftKings NY Bonus: 20% Deposit Match Bonus up to $1,000
Promo Code:Not Required
Minimum Deposit:$5

Available on the iOS and Android platforms the DraftKings NY mobile betting app is slick, fast, and simple to use.

You quickly get used to the darker interface than the FanDuel option but with thousands of ways to bet, odds boosts across popular sports like NBA and NFL it ticks all the boxes you would expect of an operator of this magnitude. Easy to navigate quick links help you find the sports you want to access, the money lines and spreads that you need are quickly explained and simple to understand before making a wager.

Already receiving great ratings on the Apple store with around 200,000 user reviews already it's clear the success of their DFS offering wasn’t lost on design and the technology employed in their mobile betting interface. New Yorkers will quickly enjoy taking their DraftKings betting options on the move and once confirming your residence status registering and getting started is simple.

FanDuel Sportsbook Betting App

Welcome Offer: $1,000 bonus bet on registration
Promo Code:Not Required
Minimum Deposit:$5

Like DraftKings the FanDuel NY mobile betting app can be downloaded on the iOS and Android stores to suit your device and the ownership tie in with the Flutter Group, responsible for European powerhouses Betfair and Paddy Power tells you that you are in business when it comes to setting up a clean, smart and intuitive sportsbook offering.

It’s easier on the eye than DraftKings with its lighter color scheme but that depends on the user as to a preference. You will find all the markets you need, a polished interface that is intuitive to the sports bettor needs and a raft of props markets to get involved with.

Odds, Markets and Betting App Features

Both FanDuel and DraftKings deliver with competitive odds across NFL, NBA, NHL, MLB and other sports like soccer, tennis and golf.

What is clear is that choice matters with hundreds of markets per game ready before and during play so you are always able to take a view and wager on that view.

Live betting, trending bets and future markets are all easy to find but the edge perhaps lands with FanDuel if you are totally new to sports wagering as its simpler interface avoids getting lost but for that compromise, the market offering can go deeper with DraftKings.

Promo Codes and Welcome Offers

Not much difference here when we talk about betting bonuses and promotions as both FanDuel and DraftKings offer a great reason to sign up and register for a new mobile betting account right now if you live in the Empire State.

Hard to split that and with some much amazing sport on the horizon the timing to get involved couldn’t be better. There is no winner here bar the sports fans of New York and whether you are team DraftKings or team FanDuel who’s to say you can’t be both.
