DraftKings, Fanatics and FanDuel launch prediction-market apps with fewer safeguards
DraftKings, Fanatics and FanDuel have launched standalone prediction-market apps over the past six weeks, with some safeguards found in their regulated sportsbooks absent at launch. The apps included limits and lockouts, while hotline prompts, session-time tracking and familiar betting-history displays were missing; FanDuel said it would add an in-app support hotline shortly.
The reported safeguard gaps may affect operators’ consumer-protection measures for prediction-market products.
