DraftKings is expanding its prediction markets offering in the United States in partnership with Crypto.com.
The deal with Crypto.com gives DraftKings Predictions access to player-specific sports event contracts for the first time, covering both the NFL and NBA, and will also enable the launch of future categories such as political event contracts.
Crypto.com becomes the second provider of event contracts to DraftKings Predictions, which launched in December 2025 with CME Group as its first partner.
“We’re continuing to build momentum behind DraftKings Predictions by leveraging our expertise across sports and technology and integrating additional CFTC-regulated exchanges like Crypto.com,” said Jeanine Hightower-Sellitto, senior vice president and general manager of DraftKings Predictions.
“This collaboration meaningfully expands customer access to trade on sports and a broader range of prediction markets and also reinforces our focus on delivering a more comprehensive and engaging experience as the product continues to evolve.”
In addition to the wider range of sports prediction markets, Crypto.com will support DraftKings Predictions’ introduction of new event contract categories, including culture, entertainment, and politics.
“Crypto.com continues to lead the way with innovative collaboration,” said Travis McGhee, global head of predictions at Crypto.com. “Connecting with DraftKings, a household name in sports, is an important milestone for us because it allows us to not only expand access to prediction markets in sports, but it grows our distribution to prediction markets on cryptocurrencies, financials, companies, politics, culture, entertainment and beyond.”
