PrizePicks operates a daily fantasy sports platform where users can predict how well their favorite athletes will perform in various sports. Users choose between 2 to 5 players and decide if each will perform above or below a specific benchmark. The accuracy of these predictions determines the potential winnings, with users able to earn up to 10 times their entry fees. The platform is designed for sports fans in the United States and Canada, although some states have restrictions on participation. Unlike many other fantasy sports platforms, PrizePicks focuses on over/under predictions rather than traditional head-to-head matchups. The company generates revenue through entry fees and offers real-money games, making it appealing for fans who want to engage more with sports. PrizePicks has also been recognized with awards such as SBC Rising Star and Atlanta Top Workplace.
