FanDuel to launch Futures Day on August 26 with exclusive betting offers

Key Points
- The flash bonuses will be released in three-hour intervals beginning at 9am ET and concluding at 11:59pm ET in the FanDuel sportsbook mobile application
- Running through the entirety of August 26, FanDuel will also match any customer’s first futures wager on NFL or college football with an equal amount in bonus bet funds
FanDuel has formed “sports betting’s first-ever holiday,” Futures Day, set to take place on August 26 and offer customers limited-time flash bonuses on futures wagers for the 2025-2026 NFL and college football seasons.
The flash bonuses will be released in three-hour intervals beginning at 9am ET and concluding at 11:59pm ET in the FanDuel sportsbook mobile application, as the first bonus will be applied to the winner of Super Bowl LX in February 2026.
Additional Futures Day flash bonuses will involve offerings such as season-long player props, win totals, player milestones and more, as well as provide fans with a bonus bet match guarantee for the first futures wager placed on August 26.
For retail activations, Mohegan Sun FanDuel Sportsbook will be introducing The Ultimate Game Plan sweepstakes ahead of the 2025-2026 NFL season, including a grand prize trip to Super Bowl LX and an ultimate fancave experience for second place.
Good to know: FanDuel formed a new partnership with derivatives marketplace CME Group on August 20 to begin the development of “fully funded, event-based contracts with defined risk”
To receive entry into The Ultimate Game Plan sweepstakes, guests must place any +250 or greater same game parlay (SPG) or SGP+ wager of at least $20 on any professional football game prior to entering the promotion.
The contest is set to run from September 4 through January 4, as Mohegan Sun FanDuel Sportsbook will also host a Game of the Week event throughout the 2025-2026 NFL season with special giveaways for attendees, such as signed helmets from teams playing in each weekly matchup.
