Contracts will go to Crypto.com | Derivatives North America and the trader-focused OG.com, both CFTC-regulated exchange and clearinghouses, joining Kalshi, ForecastEX and Rothera on Robinhood's router.

Volume is the driver. Robinhood reported 13.6 billion event contracts in Q2, more than 5 billion during the World Cup alone, and over 45 billion since launch about two years ago.

More than 30 billion traded this year through end of August. This fall the mix shifts to football and midterms.

Pro and college football contracts will cover game outcomes, player props and custom combos, routed across OG.com, Kalshi and Rothera based on availability. Robinhood is also launching a dedicated trading hub with live data and filters by week, team and conference.

A separate midterms hub will cover state and federal races with heat maps and near real-time vote-count data after polls close. Those election contracts currently route to Kalshi and Rothera, with expansion to Crypto.com and OG.com possible in weeks.

Why traders are pricing it this way

Traders crowd football and election contracts because they resolve quickly and track a visible feed, scores or vote counts, so price moves with news flow.

Routing to multiple CFTC venues tightens spreads and reduces single venue risk, which matters after record throughput. No edge is guaranteed, prices can gap on injury reports or late returns.

What the Robinhood Crypto.com prediction markets partnership signals for founders

Distribution now matters as much as venue. Robinhood owns the retail order flow, Crypto.com and OG.com supply regulated rails, and equity at a $20 billion valuation aligns both sides after Citadel Securities priced the same round.

For builders, the venue stack is consolidating around CFTC-licensed exchanges, with Rothera via the Susquehanna International Group joint venture already in the mix. The opportunity is in data and tooling, live stats, team standings, vote counts and combo construction, not in launching another matching engine.

Kris Marszalek, founder and CEO of Crypto.com and OG.com, said the goal is to make OG.com the most liquid venue for derivatives starting with prediction markets then futures and perpetuals. JB Mackenzie, VP and GM of Futures and Prediction Markets at Robinhood, tied the timing to football and the fall election calendar.

Liquidity is still fragmented and binary resolution is strict. A contract pays out on the official result, so thin books or a contested outcome can leave pricing noisy until settlement.

Not financial advice. Markets move fast.
