What Is DraftKings Predictions?

DraftKings Predictions is a prediction markets platform where participants trade event contracts on the outcomes of future real-world events.

Each contract is tied to a question about a future event, which can be a yes-or-no question or one with several possible outcomes. You take a position on the outcome you expect, and the contract settles once the real-world result is known. A contract's price reflects how likely the market thinks that outcome is

The platform is operated by GUS III LLC, doing business as DraftKings Predictions, a CFTC-registered Introducing Broker and member of the National Futures Association.

That means participants access event contracts through a federal regulatory framework overseen by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, rather than the state-by-state structure used by traditional sportsbooks.

DraftKings Predictions is a distinct platform from DraftKings Sportsbook, though it can be accessed within the DraftKings Sports and Casino app using the same DraftKings account. 

It launched in December 2025 and, on June 26, 2026, moved onto its own in-house exchange, DKeX, giving DraftKings more direct control over its prediction-market infrastructure.

How DraftKings Predictions Works

DraftKings Predictions runs on event contracts. Each contract poses a yes or no question about a future event, such as the result of a game, an economic reading, or a cultural outcome (though market availability varies by state).

A participant takes a position on the side they expect, and the contract settles once the real-world result is known.

Contract prices range from $0.01 to $0.99 and move with the market's view of how likely an outcome is. A price closer to $0.99 reflects an outcome the market sees as more likely, and a price closer to $0.01 reflects the opposite.

A contract that settles in a participant's favor is worth $1.00, and one that does not is worth $0.00, so the value of a position can rise or fall before it settles.

Prices are set by supply and demand among participants rather than by DraftKings. Participants trade with one another on the exchange, not against the operator, which is a core difference from a sportsbook.

DraftKings earns a per-contract fee that is built into trade pricing and charged on each side. Trading involves risk of loss, and a position can move against a participant before it settles.

• Event-contract categories: sports, economics and finance, politics, culture and entertainment, plus price markets on assets such as Bitcoin and Ethereum, funded in US dollars.

Available markets and features vary by state and change as the platform and regulations evolve. Confirm what is available in your state within the DraftKings Predictions app before trading.

DraftKings Predictions vs Other Prediction Markets

DraftKings Predictions enters a fast-growing space that is still led by a handful of established platforms. Kalshi and Polymarket are the two clear market leaders, with the deepest liquidity and the broadest market coverage. Kalshi offers wider sports coverage than DraftKings, including niche markets that DraftKings does not yet match, while Polymarket is known for crypto-native funding and a deep pool of politics markets.

Where DraftKings stands out is brand familiarity for US customers, its Combos trades, and a built-in responsible-trading toolset. For a wider view of how the platforms compare, see the FOX Sports best prediction markets roundup.

Is DraftKings Predictions Available in My State?

Because DraftKings Predictions operates under federal CFTC regulation rather than state gaming law, its availability model differs from a traditional sportsbook.

DraftKings Predictions is available in 48 states, plus Washington DC and US territories including Puerto Rico. It is not available in only two states:

Available markets vary by state. Sports event contracts are offered in a subset of states, generally those without an online sportsbook, such as California, Texas, Florida, and Georgia. Other states offer non-sports markets only, such as financial, economic, and cultural events.

Available markets can change as regulations evolve. Participants must be 18 or older. You must be physically located in a state where a market is offered, and the platform is not available on tribal land. For the current state-by-state breakdown, see DraftKings' official availability page.

DraftKings Predictions offers the same support channels as other DraftKings platforms. Participants can reach help through the following options:

• Live chat available through the app and Help Center
• Email support at support@draftkings.com

Responsible Trading

Trading event contracts involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for everyone. Past trends are not indicative of future results.

Never commit more than you can afford to lose, and review each market question, the contract price, and the settlement rules before taking a position.

• Only trade with CFTC-registered entities, and avoid unregulated or offshore platforms that fall outside CFTC jurisdiction.
• Review the exchange rulebook and contract terms before trading.
• Use only the official DraftKings Predictions website and app.
• Be cautious of any promise of a big payoff, and never risk more than you can afford to lose.
