About Prediction Markets in Arizona

CFTC-regulated prediction markets are available in Arizona. The state's existing sports betting framework does not restrict event contract trading.

Prediction markets (also called event contracts) let you trade on the outcome of real-world events — elections, economic indicators, weather, and more. Unlike sports betting, these are CFTC-regulated financial instruments traded on designated contract markets.

Since Arizona has legal sports betting, residents can access both traditional sportsbooks and prediction market platforms. The two serve different purposes: sportsbooks for sports odds, and prediction markets for a wider range of event outcomes.
