DraftKings announced a new contract bundling feature for its prediction market platform Monday.
Key Takeaways
- DraftKings Predictions added the parlay-like feature Monday.
- The company is allowing users to bundle contracts across sports.
- Several of DraftKings’ competitors have already launched similar products.
The latest upgrade to DraftKings Predictions acts much like parlays on the company’s sports betting platform. Combos allow users to merge different markets, like the Pistons +3.5 with the over 212.5 in Thunder-Lakers, into a single trade slip for a larger payout.
A DraftKings spokesperson told Covers that the new feature offers “greater flexibility and more dynamic access across sports, including the NBA Playoffs.” For example, combining moneyline contracts of the Cavaliers (-150), Yankees (-144), and Blue Jays (-117) on Monday night would pay out $45 on a $10 trade.
DraftKings also announced a new contract fee pricing structure for its prediction market platform Monday.
DraftKings Predictions is moving from a commission structure to a variable fee based on contract price, effective today; this change is "designed to better align fees with contract value," the company wrote in an email to customers

Product expansion
DraftKings Predictions joined several prediction market sites that offer contract bundling. Kalshi was the first to release combos last year, while Fanatics added the feature last month. FanDuel has preset combinations, like both the Cavaliers to win and the Lakers to win at +525.
DraftKings, which ranks second behind FanDuel in the U.S. gaming market share, launched prediction markets in late 2025. The platform offers sports contracts in 16 states, including California, Texas, and Florida.
DraftKings Predictions operates financial-only trading in 12 other states but it is not offering sports in jurisdictions where the company’s sportsbook is licensed and regulated.
Major investment
The operator's combos debut is part of a financial initiative to build up its prediction market presence. DraftKings has added the trading exchange to its Super App, which includes the sportsbook, online casino, and daily fantasy sports platforms.
The Boston-based company has been running prediction markets through its partnership with CME Group, but DraftKings CEO Jason Robins said the operator is close to offering its own federally regulated contracts. More investments to improve the prediction market product, build liquidity, and scale customer acquisition are being executed “with urgency,” Robins said in the company’s first-quarter release last week.
“Our core business is strong, and profitability is inflecting,” Robins added. “That gives us the firepower to press our advantage in Predictions. With our Super App, market-making capabilities, proprietary exchange, and combos coming together, we intend to establish a leadership position in Sports Predictions before year-end.”
