PrizePicks operates a daily fantasy sports platform where users can predict the performance of athletes in various sports. Users choose between 2 to 5 players and make predictions on whether each player 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 enthusiasts in the United States and Canada, although some states have regulatory restrictions that limit participation. PrizePicks generates revenue through entry fees and offers real-money games, making it a popular option for fans who want to engage more deeply with sports. The company has been recognized with several awards, including the SBC Rising Star and Atlanta Top Workplace awards.
