DraftKings Predictions has introduced a new promotion for its Week 0 college football offerings, providing new users with an opportunity to receive $200 in prediction dollars. The promotion requires a qualifying trade of $5 to unlock the bonus.
This initiative allows users to engage with DraftKings' prediction market, where they can trade contracts related to financial markets, events, weather, and sports. The $200 in prediction dollars can be applied to college football games, Major League Baseball matchups, NFL preseason action, and other available markets.
The DraftKings Predictions promo code is accessible to eligible new users across most of the United States, with Maine and New Hampshire being the only states where the platform is not currently offered. A subset of states, including California, Hawaii, Alaska, Idaho, Utah, New Mexico, Texas, Oklahoma, North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Minnesota, Alabama, Georgia, South Carolina, Florida, Delaware, and Rhode Island, offer all available markets, including sports.
The promotion is part of DraftKings' expansion into the prediction market space. Event Contract Trading is facilitated by DraftKings Predictions, which is registered as a Futures Commission Merchant with the CFTC and is a member of the NFA. The company emphasizes that trading involves substantial risk of loss and may not be suitable for all individuals, with market availability and eligibility restrictions applying.
The offer is valid for new DraftKings customers, requiring a minimum $5 first-time trade. The $200 is issued as non-withdrawable Prediction Dollars that expire in one year. Rewards are distributed incrementally, with $50 in Prediction Dollars issued every seven days for 21 days, subject to claim within seven days of issuance. The promotion is sponsored by DraftKings and ends on September 20, 2026, at 11:59 PM ET.
