Fondazione FAIR calls for betting-style safeguards on prediction markets
Fondazione FAIR director general Stefano De Vita said prediction markets such as Polymarket can create risks similar to betting and called for protections for users. He pointed to limits on deposits, age checks, monitoring and exclusion procedures, while noting that the legal status of these platforms remains under debate. The report also cited a recent Polymarket agreement with Serie A for the North American market.
Operators and regulators face questions about whether prediction products tied to sport need safeguards comparable to betting.
