Player Markets
Each player market contract represents an outcome tied to a specific player performance metric in a designated game (e.g., “Player X to record over 49.5 receiving yards”).
Contracts settle in-the-money if the specified condition is met.
Contracts settle out-of-the-money if the condition is not met.
If a player is declared inactive or out before the start of the event, contracts are settled as Event Canceled.
Sport-Specific Player Market Rules
Sports | Player Market Rules |
Football, Basketball, Hockey | If a player is active but does not enter the game, contracts settle out-of-the-money. |
Baseball and Soccer | If a player is not in the starting lineup, contracts are settled as Event Canceled.
If a player is in the starting lineup, contracts are settled based on the performance condition, regardless of whether the player records any statistics or not. |
Note:
All statistics accumulated during regulation and overtime periods count unless specified otherwise.
Statistics are considered final at the time of settlement. Corrections made afterwards will not affect the value of the Contract.
