FanDuel Prediction Markets: Predicts, Fees & Cash Out

Research FanDuel Predicts, its account and exchange disclosures, fee wording and cash-out limits. Includes an original fee-basis example and contract checklist.

FanDuel Prediction Markets: Predicts, Fees & Cash Out
On this page

FanDuel’s prediction-market product is FanDuel Predicts. Its official product page identifies accounts as carried by FanDuel Prediction Markets LLC, a registered futures commission merchant and NFA member. Treat the consumer app, account provider and exchange listing a contract as separate parts of the product.

Reviewed November 9, 2026. This guide explains the official disclosures inspected below. It does not provide changing odds, reproduce promotions or imply that every customer can access every market category.

FanDuel Predicts versus FanDuel Sportsbook

The Predicts product page describes event-contract trading and links to instructions, payout information, availability and regulatory documents. A familiar brand does not mean Sportsbook offers, rules or location permissions automatically apply to Predicts.

The inspected Predicts disclosure states 18+, while the same website also includes general Sportsbook age language elsewhere. Follow the requirements for the specific product, jurisdiction and account. A general footer or the availability of another FanDuel app does not establish your eligibility.

Identify the venue for the individual contract

The current Predicts product footer emphasizes CME Group-listed contracts. FanDuel’s June 9, 2026 announcement separately described adding sports, entertainment and combination contracts through Crypto.com’s OG Prediction Markets alongside the existing CME offering.

Those sources have different scope and dates. Do not turn one product summary into a claim that every market uses one venue. Check the exchange and contract specifications attached to the market you are researching.

The FanDuel Prediction Markets customer agreement identifies the FCM and describes accounts, execution and applicable exchange rules. That agreement is a different document from the specifications defining which outcome settles a particular contract.

Read the fee basis, not just “two cents”

The official fee support article describes a checkout charge capped at two cents per dollar of potential payout. It also shows a price-dependent per-contract fee table. That is not the same statement as a flat 2% charge on the amount you spend.

The inspected table shows $0.020 per contract in the $0.20–$0.80 price band, with smaller listed rates toward the extremes. However, its worked $0.12 example uses a different fee than its $0.12 table row. Reconcile the rate with the current order preview rather than copying that example into a blanket fee rule.

For cash out, the fee article refers to the original potential payout. The separate cash-out help article describes a fee in terms of the cash-out amount. Those wordings identify different bases. Check the actual preview and current terms; ask FanDuel support to resolve an unexplained difference before relying on a cost calculation.

An original fee-basis example

Suppose a fictional position has $100 of original potential payout and a later gross cash-out value of $40. For illustration only, a 2% charge based on $100 would be $2, leaving $38. A 2% charge based on $40 would be $0.80, leaving $39.20. The difference is $1.20.

This compares two mathematical interpretations; it does not establish the fee FanDuel would charge on a particular order. Its purpose is to show why the base matters. Save the displayed gross value, fee and net value, and check whether the quote already includes the fee before subtracting it again.

Potential payoutWhat condition produces it, and is it gross or net?
Cash outWhat is the current offered value, fee basis and net proceeds?
ResultWhat proceeds were received minus actual entry cost and other charges?

Cash out depends on liquidity

FanDuel’s cash-out article says availability depends on market liquidity and the value can move before the order is submitted. A displayed position value does not guarantee that a later exit will be available at that amount.

Separate a quote from a submitted order and a completed transaction. Record confirmed quantity and proceeds before treating an exit as final. If a quote changes, update both the price and cost assumptions used in the calculation.

Availability and settlement require their own checks

Use the availability link from the current Predicts product page and the account’s current instructions. A statement about financial contracts does not prove access to sports contracts in the same location. A dated launch announcement is also not a substitute for current category and location eligibility.

For the contract itself, record the exact outcome and official resolution source. Sports questions may require checking postponement, cancellation and player-participation treatment. Economic or financial questions require the relevant statistic, observation time and reference source. A headline about a related event is not necessarily evidence for that contract’s condition.
