HOW DO
PAYOUTS
WORK

PREDICT RIGHT, EARN CASH.

• When an event ends and you're correct, your payout is added to your account right away. That’s called “pending payouts”.

• You can use pending payouts to make more predictions instantly. After 1-2 business days, funds become available and ready to withdraw.

Second Guessing Your Prediction? CASH OUT EARLY.

• The value of your prediction can go up or down before time is up. You can hold for a chance to collect a payout or sell early (if available). Excluding fees, your losses will never exceed your original order value.

• See your order's current value anytime. Cash out early and you'll pay a transaction fee of two cents per dollar of your original potential payout. Funds go to your buying power as pending payouts.

MORE BUYING POWER, MORE POSSIBILITIES.

• Buying Power is the money you have available to place new predictions. It includes deposits and any payouts or returns from past settlements.

• When you place an order, the system taps into deposits first, then payouts if needed.

PROTECT THE PRICE OF YOUR PREDICTIONS.

• When you place an order on FanDuel Predicts, we get you the best available market price at that moment. Sometimes that means combining several price points, depending on the amount and availability.

• Because other users are also buying or selling their positions, prices and payouts can shift as the order is processed. This is called slippage and can result in minor price changes.

• FanDuel protects you from large price changes. If the price changes a lot, you will be brought back to checkout to confirm before placing your order.

SIMPLE FEES. NO SURPRISES.

• Nobody loves fees, so we keep things simple and transparent. Two cents per dollar of your potential payout. That's it.

• Example: $100 potential payout = $2 fee at checkout. The same fee applies if you cash out early.
