FanDuel Predicts offers college football event contracts in 18 states
FanDuel Predicts now offers college football event contracts in 18 states. The newest sports prediction market entrant is promoting tonight's Miami-Clemson kickoff as a trading opportunity alongside Kalshi. Separately, FanDuel Predicts published a guide explaining how its prediction market contracts are matched on the platform. Eligible customers in most locations can access the company's prediction market trading experience.
FanDuel Predicts is building its own event-contract footprint while its parent company makes markets for Kalshi, creating a split strategy that lets FanDuel learn from the leader's liquidity while cultivating its own trader base. The 18-state college football launch gives the platform real volume data before mid-season pricing wars intensify. DraftKings already trails Kalshi by 76 points of NFL share and has watched its stock sink near three-year lows, so FanDuel's dual track looks like an attempt to avoid that squeeze.
If FanDuel Predicts can match or undercut Kalshi's combo pricing by playoff season, the sportsbook may flip from partner to rival overnight. Kalshi's brokerage integrations with Robinhood, Coinbase, Webull, and Moomoo widen its distribution, but those partner dependencies leave gaps a directly licensed platform could exploit. FanDuel owns the sportsbook customer list and the marketing muscle to close gaps fast. The platform that wins on price and settle speed before bowl games will likely hold traders through the Super Bowl. FanDuel Predicts is running two races at.
