DraftKings got its start in 2012 as an innovator in daily fantasy sports. Then, following a Supreme Court ruling in 2018 that allowed states to legalize online sports wagering, the company expanded into online sports and casino gambling, where it generally holds the number-two or -three revenue share position across states where it competes. With its predictive market launch in 2025, DraftKings is now live with online or retail sports betting in most all states and i-gaming in five states, with both products available to about 50% of Canada's population. In 2025, sports revenue was 63% of total sales, i-gaming 30%, and fantasy and lottery 7%.
