@aikman.tr This is a joke right? Please tell me this is a joke. I thought this might be some kind of trending meme but IDK.
JFC is FD stupid.

What kind of marketing person at FanDuel would even let something like this be sent to customers? Idiotic and a bad look for the company
I know these books are becoming more and more sophisticated but, do you think they actually target clients and vary the offer by their bet size?
I just would be surprised they would even post a $10 offer to anyone regardless of their bet size. Its so small, it would seem like more work (because there's always issues CS has to deal with on these - see Bigjay thread) than it was worth to the book.
Absolutely they target their offers.
Just like land based casinos - your probably not getting an email unless you already signed up and played with them (as you needed to opt in to advertising - otherwise it could easily be a violation of the spam act).
So say you signed up - sent them $5 for the 200 or whatever the deal is - they are going to offer a few small things to get your back in the door if your inactive.
Remember these apps aren’t built for “serious” gamblers - they are built for “lotto player” types - the player who will take a 8 leg parlay for $5 and hope to win $500. So for that player - doubling the deposit looks like a good deal.
My DraftKings for example is usually $500 per offer these days - used to see $1k but I’ve been cut - likely based on a combination of not using the account except for profit boost/ no sweats and lower net sizes on the few bets I do place without these (props mainly as they have best selection and don’t get all bent out of shape when I play Kolzig picks and win - unlike some smaller un-regulated books).
Targeted offers are weird though - I get great offers from PennPlay via mail - I’m only on their radar via a partnership with a cruise company and the amount of play I might give on an average cruise is probably under $50 a week. Last year I was offered 3 nights hotel / $500 f&b / $500 free play and up to $800 air reimbursement (Vegas was one option - as was Detroit - hell for $800 I could probably charter a small plane from Cleveland to Detroit).
I get these stupid offers all the time from ESPN, MGM and BetRivers - all $5-10 refunds. But I’m on a few mail list from un-regulated and the offers are much better as they recognize my level of play.

I'm just shocked they waste their time with $10 offers.
It’s all automated email -no effort at all.
System generated offers - all done via bot.
And like mentioned - they aren’t targeting bettors - they are trying to MAKE them.
Any good dealer knows - you just give them a taste free. $10 for $10 is nothing to us - but to a 18 year old kid who plays those 8 leg prop parlays - it’s a second chance to hit it big.
These apps aren’t dumb - well crafted marketing. They don’t want to attract guys betting $500 a game - they want guys betting $5 a game as those bettors will take the risk and worst case a 30-1 shot hits and someone gets $150 - they won’t cash out - they will just chase it again and lose. Highly profitable market.
