TL;DR — ProphetX partnered with Pikkit to offer CFTC-regulated prediction markets on game outcomes, player props, and futures to hundreds of thousands of sports analytics users. The deal follows a $35M raise and a prior integration with Players’ Lounge, with launch set before the NFL season. It advances ProphetX’s pivot to B2B infrastructure supply.
SCCG Take — The integration shows regulated exchange access gaining traction with data-focused sports platforms. Providers should track execution volume and user migration patterns as these B2B links multiply.
ProphetX has partnered with sports tracking and analytics platform Pikkit to deliver prediction market contracts directly to its users. The agreement grants access to markets on game outcomes, player props, and season-long futures. ProphetX will execute all contracts on its Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC)-regulated exchange.
Jake Benzaquen, ProphetX Co-Founder and Chief Commercial Officer, said the companies align on user behavior. “Pikkit’s community is made up of the most engaged traders in the country — people who track every result and know exactly where their edge comes from.” He added that the partnership provides “direct access to a federal exchange where the crowd sets the price and every participant competes on a level playing field, instead of against the house.”
Pranav Tadikonda, Pikkit Co-Founder and Co-CEO, called prediction markets a “logical next step.” “Our users are already doing the work — tracking their trades and comparing venues to find the best price. ProphetX gives us a regulated, exchange-based way to put that analysis to work.” Pikkit maintains a user base in the hundreds of thousands.
The Pikkit deal supplies the latest evidence of ProphetX’s shift toward third-party infrastructure supply. It follows the company’s $35 million fundraising round last month, after which Dean Sisun, CEO and Co-Founder, identified opportunity in providing prediction market tools to brokerages, retail apps, and platforms with established audiences. ProphetX continues to operate its direct consumer product alongside this B2B focus.
In July the company announced its first integration with skill-based gaming platform Players’ Lounge. Sisun stated that ProphetX had signed a “handful” of additional agreements since the funding news. Those deals would be unveiled over the coming months. The Pikkit partnership is the first disclosed. As reported by Casino.org News, the integration launches ahead of the NFL season in September with initial markets on the NFL, NBA, and international soccer.
