If you’ve yet to try the new Caesars Sportsbook in Virginia, some intriguing offers await, for both new and existing customers.

On Tuesday the official rebranding of William Hill to Caesars Sportsbook in Virginia took place.

What does it mean for new players? How about existing William Hill customers?

Here’s everything you need to know about Caesars Sportsbook, including some big offers.

How to get Caesars Sportsbook in Virginia

First things first: accessing Caesars Sportsbook in Virginia. If you want to test drive the new-look Virginia sportsbook, here’s how to do it.

If you’re a first-time player at Caesars and didn’t previously sign up for a William Hill account, the process is simple.

Just head to the desktop version of the site, or download the Caesars Sportsbook in Virginia mobile app for iOS or Android. Here’s what it looks like:

Once done, you can then complete the registration process.

If you had a William Hill account prior to this week’s rebranding, your app should’ve updated automatically to Caesars. If it did, you’ll see the familiar gold and green Roman-inspired branding (and probably brand ambassador/comedian JB Smoove as Caesar himself). Your WH credentials will then work to log in to the new Caesars-branded version of the sportsbook.

Just note: If you’re using the desktop version of the site, the old William Hill URL is still in use despite the new Caesars branding.

Questions? Concerns? Issues? Simply contact Caesars customer support in Virginia via email at [email protected] or phone at (855) 474-0606.

Offers for new Caesars players in VA

The new Caesars site operates much like the former William Hill Sportsbook. As a result, you’ll see the usual wagering options for all types of sports leagues, big and small. This week, Olympics betting is also a popular option.

If this is your first whirl with the sports betting operator, there’s a new-user offer sure to grab your attention.

Caesars Sportsbook in Virginia is offering new customers a risk-free bet of up to $5,000.

How does it work? To qualify, you have to make your first real-money sports wager within seven days of opening your account. If that bet loses, Caesars will credit your account with a one-time-use free bet. The free bet will be worth whatever is less: the value of the initial wager or $5,000.

Offers for existing William Hill customers

Although former WH customers aren’t eligible for the $5,000 risk-free bet, Caesars Sportsbook officials are rolling out other offers.

Some players have received some 50% profit boosts tokens to use this week. Additionally, Caesars has a vast menu of “Odds Boosts” possibilities each day.

Other promos are on the way, too, according to Caesars Chief Marketing Officer Sharon Otterman:

“In September, there’ll be other what we think are just incredible offers that Caesars is going to offer Caesars Nation. So it’s not that just that the $5,000 is ending and we go back to what we were doing in the past. There are so many more exciting offers that are about to come down in very different formats and mechanics also.”

Also, be sure to sign up for the Caesars Rewards loyalty program to earn “Caesars Rewards Tier Credits” and “Reward Credits.” They can be cashed in for play, dining, and experiences at Caesars’ 50 properties in 16 US states.

Finally, keep in mind that your William Hill Rewards Points will expire early next year.
