Daily Fantasy Sports
Daily fantasy sports (DFS) let you build lineups of real players and compete based on their real-world performance. DFS is a separate product category from sportsbooks and prediction markets, and gets its own page here.
More DFS options coming soon
We’re evaluating daily fantasy partners to feature here. This page is live as a reference for how DFS works and how it differs from sportsbooks and prediction markets. Check back as we add operators.
What is daily fantasy sports?
In daily fantasy, you draft a lineup of real athletes within a salary cap or pick-style format and score points based on how those players perform in actual games. You compete against other users or against a target line, not against a sportsbook’s odds board. DFS is regulated differently from sports betting and is legal in many states where traditional sportsbooks are not.
DFS vs. sportsbooks vs. prediction markets
A sportsbook takes your bet at fixed odds. A prediction market matches you with other traders. DFS is a skill-based lineup contest. Because all three are distinct products with different rules, we keep them on separate pages, and never list non-sportsbook products beside licensed sportsbook brands.
