Summary
FanDuel Predicts, the prediction market division of Flutter Entertainment, has formalized a strategic partnership with Crypto.com and OG Prediction Markets to substantially expand its event contract offerings across U.S. markets. The collaboration enables FanDuel Predicts customers to access an enhanced portfolio of sports and entertainment contracts, along with combination event contracts previously unavailable on the platform.
FanDuel Predicts launched nationwide across all 50 states in January 2026, with regulatory restrictions limiting sports event contracts to states where FanDuel maintains an established sports betting presence. In contrast, other jurisdictions permit trading on prediction contracts tied to political, economic, and entertainment outcomes. The new partnership with Crypto.com and OG addresses product breadth constraints by integrating OG's market infrastructure and contract offerings into FanDuel's platform.
Crypto.com entered the prediction markets sector following its acquisition of Nadex, a federally regulated derivatives exchange. In February 2026, Crypto.com launched OG, its dedicated prediction markets trading platform, positioning itself as the first company to offer federally licensed sports prediction contracts in the United States. OG was specifically designed to address opportunities in sports trading markets. The partnership announcement indicates OG has achieved sufficient market traction and regulatory infrastructure to serve as a backend liquidity and product provider for FanDuel's substantially larger customer base.
According to FanDuel leadership, the partnership directly supports the company's stated objective of delivering "a best-in-class prediction market experience." The expanded contract offerings provide FanDuel Predicts customers with meaningful product differentiation in a nascent but rapidly consolidating U.S. prediction markets sector. FanDuel has previously partnered with CME for financial prediction markets offerings, indicating a multi-partner strategy for product expansion across different market segments.
