Only continue if Stake is legal and available in your confirmed market. Enter MAINGAME when creating the account. If you miss the field, Stake says a new user can open Account > Offers and add a valid welcome code within 24 hours of registration.
Enter Stake code MAINGAME step by step
- Confirm your legal market
Use the MainGame eligibility checker. Do not use a VPN to bypass an operator or local restriction.
- Read the current Stake Promo Receipt
Check the verified benefit, restrictions, affiliate disclosure and review date before creating an account.
- Open the verified route
Use the outbound route on the Stake Promo Receipt only after eligibility is confirmed.
- Enter MAINGAME during registration
Type the code exactly as shown if Stake presents a welcome-code or referral-code field.
- If missed, use the Offers page
Stake's official help says a valid code can be added from the new account's Offers page within 24 hours of registration.
- Check the account before depositing
Confirm the welcome offer or referral attribution appears. Ask Stake support if it does not.
What the Stake code actually gives
Stake's current help page says a valid welcome code gives eligible new players instant access to rakeback instead of waiting to reach Bronze VIP. Stake describes rakeback as 3.5% of the house edge. That is not 3.5% of the amount wagered.
Why the Stake promo code may not work
| Problem | What to check |
|---|---|
| More than 24 hours have passed | Stake says the post-registration code window has closed. Contact Stake support; do not deposit to test it. |
| The account already existed | The welcome-code route is intended for eligible new users. Existing accounts cannot normally attach a new referral. |
| No code field appears | Check Account > Offers. A tracked route may also apply attribution without a separate field. |
| Wrong Stake product | This guide concerns Stake.com. Stake.us is a separate product with different rules and availability. |
| Code entered but no confirmation | Take a screenshot and ask Stake support what is attached before spending money. |
