FAQ

Questions readers keep asking.

How much commission does Sporttrade charge?

It charges 2 percent on profit only, never on losses or on the amount you stake. The rate is subject to change. As of March 2026.

Is there a fee if my position loses?

No. Commission applies only when you take a profit, either by selling out before settlement or by a position settling in your favour. As of March 2026.

What is a restricted profit?

When you exit for a profit before an event settles, Sporttrade temporarily withholds the commission and shows it as restricted profit until the outcome is final, then finalizes or releases it. As of March 2026.

Is the spread a cost as well?

Yes. On an exchange the gap between buy and sell prices is a real cost, and it widens in thin markets, so the achievable price can differ from the last trade.

Can I use Sporttrade right now?

Its state licensed markets were closing in 2026 and its federal prediction market application was pending with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission. Check the platform announcements for current status before planning around it. As of March 2026.
