DraftKings has expanded its prediction markets offering through a new partnership with Crypto.com. The deal introduces player-specific sports contracts for the first time on the platform. The update further develops the DraftKings prediction markets product under federal oversight.

• The agreement links DraftKings Predictions with Crypto.com’s CFTC-regulated derivatives exchange in North America. This enables player-specific event contracts tied to NFL and NBA performances. These markets are available in states where DraftKings Predictions already operates.

• The expansion builds on existing exchange connections, including CME Group, and widens the sports coverage on the platform. New sports added include soccer, MMA, golf, boxing, tennis and the Olympic Games. DraftKings prediction markets now cover both team-based and individual outcomes.

• DraftKings said the new player contracts follow the same federally regulated event contract framework as existing markets. Jeanine Hightower-Sellitto, senior vice-president and general manager of DraftKings Predictions, said: “This collaboration meaningfully expands customer access to trade on sports and a broader range of prediction markets.” The company confirmed the product will continue to evolve as more exchanges are integrated.

• Crypto.com is expected to support additional prediction categories in the future, including politics, culture and entertainment. DraftKings also plans to integrate Railbird Exchange in the coming months to expand liquidity and market depth. DraftKings Predictions remains a standalone app operating separately from the company’s sportsbook.
