Eager to Launch your Prediction Market?
Yes, a prediction market platform license is different from a sportsbook or sports betting license, but it also depends on the jurisdictions. Jurisdictions where prediction markets are considered betting may fall under the sportsbook license. But in the USA, prediction markets are classified as contracts or financial derivatives, hence they're regulated by the CFTC.
Some offshore or emerging jurisdictions (for example, under the Liberia Gaming Authority) may offer approvals within 2–4 months. More established European jurisdictions typically require 4–12 months due to deeper compliance reviews. In highly regulated financial frameworks, like U.S. event contract models, timelines can extend beyond 12 months.
Using cryptocurrency does not eliminate licensing requirements. In many jurisdictions, crypto-based prediction platforms are still classified under gambling or financial regulation.
Depending on the prediction market platform license and your sportsbook license, it is possible to operate both platforms under a single entity. TRUEiGTECH can build and launch your prediction market platform while integrating it with your existing sportsbook platform.
Capital requirements to launch a prediction market platform can vary by jurisdiction and license category. However, the general costs included are paid-up share capital, operational reserve capital requirements, liquidity management requirements, financial guarantees, and bonds.
Yes, in many prediction market platforms, political prediction markets are legal and also attract some of the highest trading activity. These markets may face additional scrutiny; operators must first get expert assistance to understand the legality and execution of political prediction markets.
Every jurisdiction has its own definition of prediction markets, which creates a gap in understanding, as the licenses and prediction market licensing requirements are different.
The key regulatory risks of prediction market platforms include market manipulation concerns, insider trading, AML violations, and political sensitivity.
