Polymarket

Prediction market

Is Polymarket a sportsbook or a prediction market?

A prediction market. Polymarket is a prediction-market exchange operating in the US under the CFTC event-contract framework.

Outcome contracts trade peer to peer in cents and settle at $1.00 if the stated outcome occurs; prices come from the order book rather than a bookmaker.

On fees: Polymarket deducts a stated 2% fee from winnings at settlement. Our comparison tables reflect this in the net payout figure, which is also the ordering key. Across the 13 platforms we cover, we compute the full cost of a bet the same way here.

Live prices from Polymarket appear in our comparison tables.
