FanDuel Predicts has added a second contract source just as World Cup betting and trading demand heats up. The Flutter Entertainment product will now offer new sports, entertainment, and combination event contracts through Crypto.com and OG Prediction Markets.
Good to know
FanDuel already had a prediction market path through its CME Group joint venture. The Crypto.com and OG deal now gives the product more contract depth, including combination event contracts that let users trade linked outcomes rather than only single events.
James Cooper, senior vice president of flywheel and new ventures at FanDuel, said the extra product range gives users more choice.
“FanDuel Predicts was built to deliver a best-in-class prediction market experience to our customers,” Cooper said. “These additional product sets give our customers more choices by expanding the breadth of sports and entertainment contracts on our platform.”
The timing fits the wider market. Prediction markets now sit closer to sports betting after rapid growth from Kalshi, Polymarket, Crypto.com, DraftKings Predictions, and FanDuel Predicts. CFTC also proposed new event contract rules on June 10, 2026, which would support many sports contracts while drawing limits around injuries, officiating, microbet style plays, and pre collegiate events.
FanDuel Predicts launched at the start of 2026 in all 50 states. It offers financial benchmark contracts nationwide, including the S&P 500, Nasdaq 100, oil and gas prices, gold, cryptocurrencies, GDP, and CPI. Sports and entertainment contracts are available in states where FanDuel does not operate sports betting, according to the company announcement.
Crypto.com entered prediction markets after acquiring Nadex, a CFTC regulated derivatives exchange and clearinghouse. It then launched OG Prediction Markets in February as a dedicated trading platform for event contracts.
Nick Lundgren, then Crypto.com Chief Legal Officer and now OG CEO, said at launch:
“Crypto.com was the first company to offer federally licensed sports prediction contracts in the United States, so launching OG is very fitting. We have tremendous momentum and expertise to establish OG as a market leader for consumers in this deca-billion dollar industry….”
The FanDuel Predicts deal gives OG a direct route into a large mainstream betting and gaming audience. It also gives FanDuel a wider exchange partner base, with CME Group and OG Prediction Markets both feeding contract supply into the product.
Crypto.com Chief Business Officer Joe Anzures said the tie-up uses the company regulated infrastructure at a key sports moment.
“We are thrilled to partner with FanDuel Predicts to bring a new level of depth and experience to its prediction markets experience,” Anzures said. “By leveraging our robust, regulated exchange and clearinghouse infrastructure, we are enabling a mainstream prediction markets experience just in time for the World Cup – underscoring our capability to deliver scalable, regulated derivatives infrastructure for the world’s biggest moments.”
Customers will begin seeing contract offerings from CME Group and OG Prediction Markets this week with the start of the World Cup. For FanDuel, the setup adds more prediction market content without walking away from its sportsbook business. For OG, it tests its sports trading pitch through one of the largest U.S. gaming brands.
