Responsible gambling

The helpline is free, confidential and available 24/7. The National Council on Problem Gambling also offers screening tools, chat support and treatment referrals at ncpgambling.org.

What this site does and doesn't do

Odds & Markets does not accept wagers and cannot process bets. We compare what a selection you already chose pays at the venues we cover. We never suggest a bet, and we send no price alerts, nothing on this site is designed to prompt you to bet more, sooner, or at all.

Every covered venue that is a licensed sportsbook offers deposit limits, time-outs and self-exclusion. Use them early, not as a last resort.

A note on prediction markets

CFTC-regulated event contracts are not legally classified as gambling, they are federally regulated financial contracts. That distinction does not change the practical risk: trading event contracts can lose money quickly, positions can feel like wagers, and the same self-exclusion mindset applies. If trading on outcomes stops feeling like a decision you control, the resources on this page are for that too, whatever the legal category. Note that some exchange venues offer fewer built-in protection tools than licensed sportsbooks, check a venue's own limit and exclusion options before funding an account.
