FanDuel Predicts expands into states without sports betting licences

Flutter is developing FanDuel Predicts, an event-contract style product aimed at markets where online sports betting remains restricted, the company disclosed. The product is now available in states where a sports betting licence was not available to FanDuel, broadening its geographic footprint beyond traditional sportsbook markets. FanDuel is already one of the largest US sportsbooks with presence in dozens of states. The disclosure came in a Yahoo News article focused on a FanDuel Casino slot game launch tied to the 'Love Island' reality show. The Yahoo News report did not mention a timeline, state rollout details, or regulatory filings. FanDuel Predicts operates as a free-to-play product, in contrast with real-money prediction markets such as Kalshi or PredictIt.
