Final Verdict

Bottom Line: Should Kentucky Bettors Sign Up?


Best for: merch rewards.

Skip if: Bettors with no interest in sports merch; FanCash has no cash redemption.

Fanatics is a smart second app for any Kentucky bettor who buys at least $200/year of team merchandise. The FanCash you earn pays for itself if you would have bought the gear anyway. As a primary book, it sits behind FanDuel and DraftKings on market depth but it is closing the gap quickly.
