DraftKings First Goalscorer Insurance Promo for the 2026 World Cup
What Is First Goalscorer Insurance?
First Goalscorer Insurance is a DraftKings promotion designed for players betting on the First Goalscorer market.
Here's how it works: if the player you back doesn't score the opening goal of the match, but goes on to score later during regulation time or extra time, DraftKings refunds your stake as a Bonus Bet.
Penalty shootout goals are not included in the promotion.
It's a simple way to add extra value to one of soccer's most popular betting markets, especially during high-stakes World Cup matches where goals can come from anywhere.
Turnover: 1x Bonus Amount
Lowest odds: -500
Bonus code: N/A
How the Promotion Works
To qualify for the offer, players must activate the promotion before placing their wager and apply the designated promotional token in the bet slip.
To be eligible:
- Activate the promotion before placing your bet.
- Place a pre-match straight bet on the First Goalscorer market.
- Apply the Bet & Get Token in your bet slip.
- If your selected player scores later in the match - but not the first goal - you'll receive a Bonus Bet equal to your original stake.
Bonus Bet Details
If your wager qualifies, the Bonus Bet is typically credited within 36 hours after the bet has been settled.
The Bonus Bet comes with a few important conditions:
- It cannot be withdrawn as cash.
- It expires seven days after being issued.
- If the Bonus Bet wins, only the net winnings are paid out - the Bonus Bet stake itself is not returned.
