Unibet Iowa Promo Codes & Review
Unibet has been a staple of the European Sports Betting game since the late 1990s. Originally based in Earl’s Court in London, they now have their main HQ on the Mediterranean island of Malta. They moved into the US market like many companies first in NJ before crossing over the state line to PA.
Unibet launched in the Hawkeye State on September 1, 2021. They are partnered with Caesars Entertainment and Harrah’s Council Bluffs Casino along with the Missouri River. A prime location as it is right on the state line so attracts customers from both Iowa and Nebraska.
To gain the attention of the market in the state, Unibet is opening up with a Risk-Free initial bet worth up to $500.
One of their big plays to entice new customers is a nice little parlay boost. This is certainly one that will interest those who enjoy a bit of a flutter on a Fall or Winter weekend as the College Football and NFL seasons play out.
A three-leg parlay will see odds boosted by 10%
A four-leg parlay will see odds boosted by 20%
A five-leg parlay will see odds boosted by 30%.
Pretty sweet. The one stipulation they have is every leg of the parlay has to have odds of greater than -500. So no just piling up on the extremely short prices!
They also have a PigSkin Parlay Super Boost which sees a 50% boost on an eight-leg parlay. So if you are a big parlay bettor then Unibet in Iowa is a Sportsbook you should seriously consider.
Both the desktop and mobile sites offer live streaming of select games which gives bettors the opportunity to track their live in-game bets and perhaps take advantage of the cash-out option if things are going south.
