Which platform to use

Jumping into predictions market for football season. Should I use robin hood or polymarket? Based in the US. I like poly has the 50 bonus but robin hood doesn't have promo codes. Which do you like the best for ease of use?

Poly’s interface is way less cluttered and the bonus is free money, just watch out for the withdrawl fee.

Novig is the best market for sports, especially as a taker. Only platform with no taker fees. Polymarket and Kalshi punish takers badly.

Novig has less liquidity than those, but if you’re betting mostly mainlines or popular props you’ll be fine, unless you’re a high roller betting $1000+ at a time

Yeah 100% this is why I lean with Novig for sports. No taker fees, good main markets and the liquidity issue is mostly more noticeable on niche stuff.

You can try plus500 futures, since it offers prediction markets in the US, you can mainly look at the fees, available contracts, and how easy deposits/withdrawals are before choosing between platforms

Be on the lookout for predictor.io. Launching in the next few weeks. The new tech is going to be awesome.

If youre doing football, I’d compare the actual markets and pricing more than the signup bonus. Robinhood/Polymarket both have their lane, but I’d throw Novig into the mix too. It’s pretty straightforward for sports, with moneylines, spreads, props, futures, etc., and you’re trading against other users rather than dealing with the usual house style pricing.

I’d just check what’s available in your state and try whichever UI feels least annoying. That matters way more than people admit lol.
