Prediction Markets for Operators
Why Prediction Markets, Why Now
Player engagement with traditional sports betting is consolidating. Bettors who want variety are moving to platforms that offer more than match outcomes. Prediction markets — bet on elections, economic indicators, crypto milestones, world events — represent a category that established sportsbooks and casinos are not serving today.
The market is large and untapped. Polymarket alone processed over $8B in volume in 2024. Retail prediction markets at scale have been held back by two problems: liquidity (order-book models require active participants) and compliance complexity (crypto-native platforms are not operator-friendly). Both are solved here.
The opportunity: Add a high-engagement, low-cannibalisation product vertical in a standard sprint cycle, with no ongoing engineering commitment.
The Platform
A B2B prediction markets platform built for operators. Players get markets on real-world outcomes; operators get a fully managed product they embed and connect to their wallet.
Sourced from Polymarket — and extensible
Market content flows from Polymarket — elections, sports championships, crypto, climate, tech — continuously updated and automatically resolved. Operators get a live catalog from day one. The architecture supports additional sourcing adapters, including operator-defined custom markets powered by the same AMM algorithm.
Fully customizable widget
The widget matches your branding — colors, typography, layout, and theme. Bettors see a native experience, not a third-party embed.
Three wallet endpoints
The entire integration surface is three REST endpoints on the operator's backend: deposit (credit winnings), withdraw (debit stake), rollback (reverse failure). That is the integration. Everything else is handled by the platform.
Integration Simplicity
Operator backend Predictions Platform
───────────────── ─────────────────────────────────────
POST /withdraw ←── Bet placed by player
POST /deposit ←── Winning paid out on settlement
POST /rollback ←── Compensation on failure
Standalone path: Implement the three endpoints, configure the session flow, embed the iFrame. Done.
Bundled path (SOFTSWISS Sportsbook operators): Zero integration work — wallet and widget are handled at the Sportsbook layer. Enable the feature and go live in hours.
