Is My Money Safe?

Yes. Polymarket is non-custodial, so youā€™re in control of your funds.

Non-custodial, youā€™re in control

Polymarket recognizes the importance of a trustworthy environment for managing your funds. To ensure this, Polymarket uses non-custodial wallets, meaning we never take possession of your USDC. This approach gives you full control over your assets, providing protection against potential security threats like hacks, misuse, and unauthorized transactions.

ā€‹Your keys = your funds

A private key acts like a highly secure password, essential for managing and moving your assets without restrictions. You can export your private key at any time, ensuring sole access to your funds. Learn how to export your private key here

ā€‹Keep your private keys private.

Do not share your private key with others. While Polymarket provides the infrastructure, the security of your assets depends on how securely you handle your private key and passwords. Losing your private key or passwords can result in losing access to your funds. Itā€™s crucial to store this information in a safe and secure environment.

ā€‹Our Commitment

Polymarket aims to give you peace of mind, knowing that your assets are safe and fully under your control at all times. We encourage you to take necessary precautions to secure your digital assets effectively. The ability to manage your private key means you are not reliant on Polymarket to secure your assets; you have the control to ensure your financial security.

Is Polymarket The House?

No, Polymarket is not the house. All trades happen peer-to-peer (p2p).

Polymarket is different in a few key ways:

ā€‹1. Traders interact directly with each other, not with Polymarket

Polymarket is a marketplace comprised of traders on both sides of any given market. This means youā€™re always trading with other users, not against a centralized entity or ā€œhouse.ā€ Prices on Polymarket are determined by supply and demand. As traders buy and sell shares in outcomes, prices fluctuate to reflect the collective sentiment and knowledge of market participants.

ā€‹2. Polymarket does not charge transaction fees

Unlike bookmakers or wagering operations, Polymarket does not charge deposit/withdrawal fees.

ā€‹3. Transact at any time

Polymarket enables you to sell your position at any time before the market resolves, provided there is a willing buyer of your shares. This offers flexibility and allows you to manage your risk and lock in profits or cut losses as you see fit.

In essence, Polymarket empowers you to trade based on your own knowledge and research, without going up against a ā€œhouseā€ with potentially unfair advantages.

Polymarket vs. Polling

How is Polymarket better than traditional / legacy polling?

While legacy polls capture a snapshot of opinion at a specific moment, they are often outdated by the time theyā€™re publishedā€”sometimes lagging by several days. In contrast, Polymarket reflects real-time sentiment as events unfold, offering continuous updates and a more dynamic understanding of public opinion.

Studies show that prediction markets like Polymarket tend to outperform traditional pollsters because participants are financially incentivized to be correct. This creates more thoughtful, data-driven predictions. Research by James Surowiecki, author of The Wisdom of Crowds, has highlighted how markets like these can be more accurate than polls due to the ā€œcollective intelligenceā€ of diverse participants. Additionally, the Iowa Electronic Markets, an academic research project at the University of Iowa, has consistently demonstrated the superior accuracy of prediction markets like Polymarket over traditional polling in predicting political outcomes.

Polymarket provides a constantly updating picture of public sentiment, offering a degree of accuracy and timeliness that traditional pollsters, who typically report data that is days old, simply cannot match.

Recover Missing Deposit

Sent the wrong token or used the wrong network when depositing? Here's how to recover your funds.

When does this apply?

This guide primarily covers situations where you transferred cryptocurrency directly to your Polymarket profile address instead of using the Deposit button.

What's a profile address? Your profile address is the Polygon wallet associated with your Polymarket account. It's different from your deposit address, which is the address shown when you click Deposit ā†’ Transfer Crypto. If you're unsure which address you sent to, contact support with your transaction hash and we'll help identify it.

Sent funds on Ethereum?

If you sent a token (such as ETH, USDC, USDT, or another ERC-20) on the Ethereum network to your profile address, you may be able to recover it using the Ethereum recovery tool:

  1. Go to recovery.polymarket.com.

  2. Connect the wallet you use on Polymarket, or sign in with your Polymarket account.

  3. If prompted, send the quoted amount of ETH to the owner address shown in the red box (this covers the gas fee for recovery).

  4. Search for the token you sent (ETH, USDC, USDT, etc.).

  5. Enter the external wallet address you'd like the funds returned to.

  6. Click Deploy Safe to return the funds to that address.

Sent funds on Polygon?

If you sent a non-pUSD token (such as USDT, POL, or another asset) on the Polygon network to your profile address, you may be able to recover it using the Polygon recovery tool.

  1. Go to recovery.polymarket.com.

  2. Sign in using your Polymarket login method.

  3. If prompted, send the quoted amount of POL to the owner address shown in the red box.

  4. Search for the token you sent (USDT, POL, nUSD, etc.).

  5. If prompted, click Deploy Safe.

  6. Enter the external wallet address you'd like the funds returned to.

Sent funds on Base, Arbitrum, Optimism, or BSC?

Recovery tools also exist for other supported networks. If you sent funds to your profile address on Base, Arbitrum, Optimism, or BSC, please contact support with your transaction hash and we'll assist in deeming if the recovery is possible.

Please note: Not all recovery cases will be possible given these circumstances.

What can't be recovered

Due to the nature of blockchain transactions, some situations are unfortunately unrecoverable:

Funds sent to the CTF Exchange contract. If you sent tokens directly to a CTF exchange contract address (instead of your deposit or profile address), those funds are permanently locked in the contract. There is no mechanism for anyone, including the Polymarket team, to return or reverse the transfer.

  • Unsupported networks: If you sent funds on a network other than Ethereum, Polygon, Base, Arbitrum, Optimism, or BSC, recovery is not currently possible.

  • Funds sent to an address that isn't yours: If the receiving address doesn't belong to your Polymarket account, we cannot access or recover those funds.

Used the Deposit button but funds didn't arrive?

If you deposited using the Deposit ā†’ Transfer Crypto flow and your funds haven't appeared after 10 minutes:

  1. Double-check the transaction on a block explorer (Polygonscan, Etherscan, or Mempool for BTC) to confirm it was successful.

  2. Make sure you sent the correct token on the correct network, and that the amount meets the minimum deposit requirement for that network.

  3. Try refreshing the page or logging out and back in.

  4. If the transaction is confirmed on-chain but not reflected in your balance, contact support with your transaction hash and we'll investigate.

Need help?

If the recovery tool isn't working, or if your situation isn't covered above, contact support through the chat widget on polymarket.com (bottom-right corner). Please include:

  • Your transaction hash (Tx ID)

  • The token and approximate amount you sent

  • The network you sent on

This helps us diagnose and resolve your issue as quickly as possible.

Can I Sell Early?

Yes, you can sell or close your position early.

You may sell shares at any point before the market is resolved by either placing a market order to sell shares at the prevailing bid price in the orderbook, or by placing a limit order for how many shares you wish to sell and at what price.

The limit order will only be executed if/when there is a willing buyer for your shares at the price you set.

What is a Prediction Market?

How people collectively forecast the future.

A prediction market is a platform where people can bet on the outcome of future events. By buying and selling shares in the outcomes, participants collectively forecast the likelihood of events such as sports results, political elections, or entertainment awards.

ā€‹How it works

Market Prices = Probabilities: The price of shares in a prediction market represents the current probability of an event happening. For example, if shares of an event are trading at 20 cents, it indicates a 20% chance of that event occurring.

ā€‹Making predictions

If you believe the actual probability of an event is higher than the market price suggests, you can buy shares. For instance, if you think a team has a better than 20% chance of winning, you would buy shares at 20 cents. If the event occurs, each share becomes worth $1, yielding a profit.

ā€‹Free-market trading

You can buy or sell shares at any time before the event concludes, based on new information or changing circumstances. This flexibility allows the market prices to continuously reflect the most current and accurate probabilities.

ā€‹Trust the markets

Prediction markets provide unbiased and accurate probabilities in real time, cutting through the noise of human and media biases. Traditional sources often have their own incentives and slants, but prediction markets operate on the principle of ā€œput your money where your mouth is.ā€ Here, participants are financially motivated to provide truthful insights, as their profits depend on the accuracy of their predictions.

In a prediction market, prices reflect the aggregated sentiment of all participants, weighing news, data, expert opinions, and culture to determine the true odds. Unlike media narratives, which can be swayed by various biases, prediction markets offer a transparent view of where people genuinely believe weā€™re heading.

ā€‹Why use prediction markets?

Prediction markets are often more accurate than traditional polls and expert predictions. The collective wisdom of diverse participants, each motivated by the potential for profit, leads to highly reliable forecasts. This makes prediction markets an excellent tool for gauging real-time probabilities of future events.

Polymarket, the worldā€™s largest prediction market, offers a user-friendly platform to bet on a wide range of topics, from sports to politics. By participating, you can profit from your knowledge while contributing to the accuracy of market predictions.

Why Crypto?

Why Polymarket uses crypto and blockchain technology to create the worldā€™s largest Prediction market.

Polymarket operates on Polygon, a proof-of-stake layer two blockchain built on Ethereum. All transactions are denominated in USDC, a US-dollar pegged stablecoin.This architecture offers several advantages over traditional prediction markets:

ā€‹Why USDC?

ā€‹Stable Value

Polymarket denominates trades in USDC, which is pegged 1:1 to the US Dollar. This shields you from the volatility associated with other cryptocurrencies and offers a stable medium for trading.

ā€‹Regulated Reserves

USDC operates in adherence to regulatory standards and is backed by reserved assets.

ā€‹Transparency

Blockchain technology facilitates transparency, as all transactions are recorded publicly.

ā€‹Global Reach

Research has shown that wide availability of prediction markets increases their accuracy. Using decentralized blockchain technology removes the need for a central authority in trading, which fosters fairness and open participation around the globe.

How to Deposit

How to add cash to your balance on Polymarket.

To deposit funds into your Polymarket account:

  1. Click Deposit.

  2. Select your deposit method (for example, Transfer Crypto).

  3. Choose the token and network (chain) you want to use. Each Polymarket account is assigned a fixed crypto deposit address tied to the specific profile. This address cannot be changed or regenerated manually. Deposit addresses are unique to the blockchain network, so your address on Solana or Bitcoin may differ from your Polygon/EVM address.

  4. Copy your deposit address. Always verify the deposit address displayed in your profile before sending funds. Ensure you are using the same wallet and login method as when you created your account to avoid discrepancies. Test with a small amount to confirm compatibility before transferring larger amounts.

  5. Send the minimum required amount to that address.

  6. After the transaction confirms, refresh the page ā€” your funds will appear in your balance. Note that deposits below the minimum thresholds (e.g., $20 for Ethereum, $3 for Solana) will remain pending until the cumulative amount meets the required minimum.

Always double-check the network and deposit address before sending funds. Transactions sent to the wrong chain or address cannot be reversed.

If you mistakenly send funds to the wrong address or network, you can use Polymarketā€™s on-chain recovery tool to attempt recovery. Follow the steps provided in the recovery portal to retrieve your funds.

What is Polymarket

Polymarket is the worldā€™s largest prediction market, allowing you to stay informed and profit from your knowledge by betting on future events across various topics.

Studies show prediction markets are often more accurate than pundits because they combine news, polls, and expert opinions into a single value that represents the marketā€™s view of an eventā€™s odds. Our markets reflect accurate, unbiased, and real-time probabilities for the events that matter most to you. Markets seek truth.

ā€‹Quick Overview

  • On Polymarket, you can trade on future event outcomes (i.e. ā€œWill TikTok be banned in the U.S. this year?ā€)

  • Shares in event outcomes are between 0.00 and 1.00, and every pair of event outcomes (i.e. each pair of ā€œYESā€ + ā€œNOā€ shares) is fully collateralized by $1.00 USDC

  • Shares are created when the sum of what each side is willing to pay is equal to $1.00 opposing sides come to an agreement on odds

  • The shares representing the correct, final outcome are paid out $1.00 USDC each upon market resolution

  • Unlike sportsbooks, you are not betting against ā€œthe houseā€ ā€“ the counterparty to each trade is another Polymarket user. As such:

    • Shares can be sold before the event outcome is known (i.e. to lock in profits or cut losses).

    • There is no ā€œhouseā€ to ban you for winning too much.

ā€‹Understanding Prices

Prices = Probabilities.

Prices (odds) on Polymarket represent the current probability of an event occurring. For example, in a market predicting whether the Miami Heat will win the 2025 NBA Finals, if YES shares are trading at 18 cents, it indicates a 18% chance of Miami winning.

These odds are determined by what price other Polymarket users are currently willing to buy & sell those shares at. Just how stock exchanges donā€™t ā€œsetā€ the prices of stocks, Polymarket does not set prices / odds - theyā€™re a function of supply & demand.

ā€‹Making money on markets

In the example above, if you believe Miamiā€™s chances of winning are higher than 18%, you would buy ā€œYesā€ shares at 18 cents each. If Miami wins, each ā€œYesā€ share would be worth $1, resulting in an 82-cent profit per share. Conversely, any trader who owned ā€œNoā€ shares would see their investment become worthless once the game is over.

Since itā€™s a market, youā€™re not locked into your trade. You can sell your shares at any time at the current market price. As the news changes, the supply and demand for shares fluctuates, causing the share price to reflect the new odds for the event.

ā€‹How accurate are Polymarket odds?

Research shows prediction markets are often more accurate than experts, polls, and pundits. Traders aggregate news, polls, and expert opinions, making informed trades. Their economic incentives ensure market prices adjust to reflect true odds as more knowledgeable participants join.

This makes prediction markets the best source of real-time event probabilities. People use Polymarket for the most accurate odds, gaining the ability to make informed decisions about the future.

If youā€™re an expert on a certain topic, Polymarket is your opportunity to profit from trading based on your knowledge, while improving the marketā€™s accuracy.

  • Shares in event outcomes are between 0.00 and 1.00, and every pair of event outcomes (i.e. each pair of ā€œYESā€ + ā€œNOā€ shares) is fully collateralized by $1.00 USDC

  • Shares are created when the sum of what each side is willing to pay is equal to $1.00 opposing sides come to an agreement on odds

  • The shares representing the correct, final outcome are paid out $1.00 USDC each upon market resolution

  • Unlike sportsbooks, you are not betting against ā€œthe houseā€ ā€“ the counterparty to each trade is another Polymarket user. As such:

    • Shares can be sold before the event outcome is known (i.e. to lock in profits or cut losses).

    • There is no ā€œhouseā€ to ban you for winning too much.

ā€‹Understanding Prices

Prices = Probabilities.

Prices (odds) on Polymarket represent the current probability of an event occurring. For example, in a market predicting whether the Miami Heat will win the 2025 NBA Finals, if YES shares are trading at 18 cents, it indicates a 18% chance of Miami winning.

These odds are determined by what price other Polymarket users are currently willing to buy & sell those shares at. Just how stock exchanges donā€™t ā€œsetā€ the prices of stocks, Polymarket does not set prices / odds - theyā€™re a function of supply & demand.

ā€‹Making money on markets

In the example above, if you believe Miamiā€™s chances of winning are higher than 18%, you would buy ā€œYesā€ shares at 18 cents each. If Miami wins, each ā€œYesā€ share would be worth $1, resulting in an 82-cent profit per share. Conversely, any trader who owned ā€œNoā€ shares would see their investment become worthless once the game is over.

Since itā€™s a market, youā€™re not locked into your trade. You can sell your shares at any time at the current market price. As the news changes, the supply and demand for shares fluctuates, causing the share price to reflect the new odds for the event.

ā€‹How accurate are Polymarket odds?

Research shows prediction markets are often more accurate than experts, polls, and pundits. Traders aggregate news, polls, and expert opinions, making informed trades. Their economic incentives ensure market prices adjust to reflect true odds as more knowledgeable participants join.

This makes prediction markets the best source of real-time event probabilities. People use Polymarket for the most accurate odds, gaining the ability to make informed decisions about the future.

If youā€™re an expert on a certain topic, Polymarket is your opportunity to profit from trading based on your knowledge, while improving the marketā€™s accuracy.

How Are Prediction Markets Resolved?

Markets are resolved by the UMA Optimistic Oracle, a smart-contract based optimistic oracle.

Overview

  • When the result of a market becomes clear, the market can be ā€œresolved,ā€ or permanently finalized.

  • Markets are resolved according to the marketā€™s pre-defined rules, which can be found under marketā€™s the order book.

  • When a market is resolved, holders of winning shares receive $1 per share, losing shares become worthless, and trading of shares is no longer possible.

  • To resolve a market, an outcome must first be ā€œproposed,ā€ which involves putting up a bond in USDC.e which will be forfeited if the proposal is unsuccessful.

  • If the proposal is validated as accurate, the proposer will receive a reward for your proposal.

If you propose a market too early, or are unsuccessful in your proposal, you will lose all of your $750 bond. Do not propose a resolution unless you understand the process and are confident in your view.

To propose a market resolution

Once in the verification process, UMA will review the transaction to ensure it was proposed correctly. If approved, you will receive your bond amount back in your wallet plus the reward. If not approved, it will enter Umaā€™s dispute resolution process, which is described in detail here.

ā€‹To dispute a proposed resolution

Once a market is proposed for resolution it goes into a challenge period of 2 hours.

If you do not agree with a proposed resolution, you can dispute the outcome.

Holding Rewards

Earn rewards on eligible positions while helping maintain long-term market pricing accuracy

What are we doing?

To keep long-term pricing accurate, weā€™re paying 3.25% annualized Holding Reward based on your total position value in certain Polymarkets. We anticipate rolling out a new reward and oracle-resolution system later this year ā€” at which point there will be a simple 1-click migration.

ā€‹Reward Rate and Conditions

The current rate is set at 3.25% and applies to all eligible positions. This rate is variable and subject to change at Polymarketā€™s discretion. We also reserve the right to introduce limits to the total amount of rewards paid out at any time. This iteration of rewards is funded through the Polymarket Treasury.

Your total position value is randomly sampled once each hour, and the reward is distributed daily. Your rewards are calculated based on the total position value of your eligible positions at the time of evaluation.

ā€‹Total Position Value Computation

For each eligible polymarket, we calculate the eligible position in the following way:

Position Valuation:

  • Based on your current ā€œYesā€ and ā€œNoā€ shares and the most recent mid-price for each outcome.

ā€‹Example

If you hold at the time of sampling:

  • 30,000 ā€œYesā€ shares at a price of $0.53

  • 10,000 ā€œNoā€ shares at a price of $0.45

Total Position Value:

  • (30000 Ɨ 0.53) + (10000 Ɨ 0.45)

  • $15,900 + $4,500 = $20,400

Hourly Holding Reward Calculation (based on 3.25% Annual Reward):

  • $20400 Ɨ (0.0325 / 365 / 24) ā‰ˆ $0.075697

How Are Prices Calculated?

The prices probabilities displayed on Polymarket are the midpoint of the bid-ask spread in the orderbook.


Initial Price

  • When a market is created, there are initially zero shares and no pre-defined prices or odds.

  • Market makers (a fancy term for traders placing limit orders) interested in buying YES or NO shares can place Limit Orders at the price theyā€™re willing to pay

  • When offers for the YES and NO side equal $1.00, the order is ā€œmatchedā€ and that $1.00 is converted into 1 YES and 1 NO share, each going to their respective buyers.

For example, if you place a limit order at $0.60 for YES, that order is matched when someone places a NO order at $0.40.This becomes the initial market price.

ā€‹Future Price

The prices displayed on Polymarket are the midpoint of the bid-ask spread in the orderbook ā€” unless that spread is over $0.10, in which case the last traded price is used.Like the stock market, prices on Polymarket are a function of realtime supply & demand.

ā€‹Prices = Probabilities

In the market below, the probability of 37% is the midpoint between the 34Ā¢ bid and 40Ā¢ ask. If the bid-ask spread is wider than 10Ā¢, the probability is shown as the last traded price.

Limit Orders

What are limit orders and how to make them.

What are Limit Orders?

Limit orders are open orders (pending trades) that only execute when the market trades at your desired price.

For example, if the highest youā€™re willing to pay for a share of Trump ā€œYesā€ in the 2024 Republican Nomination is 72c, but the current market price is 73c, you could create a limit order at 72c and wait until someone is willing to sell Yes shares at your desired price.

Itā€™s not necessary for the entire order to execute at once. Limit orders can ā€˜partially fillā€™ as individual traders fill parts of your order.

ā€‹Managing limit orders

When you have an open order, youā€™ll find it displayed just below the Order Book on the marketā€™s page.If you have open orders across multiple markets, you can easily manage and monitor them all from the Portfolio page.
ā€‹

Specifically for sports markets, any outstanding limit orders are automatically cancelled once the game begins, clearing the entire order book at the official start time. Be aware, game start times can shift so itā€™s important to always monitor your orders closely in case they are not cleared due to game changes or other circumstances.

Additionally, sports markets include a 3-second delay on the placement of marketable orders.

A 1-second taker delay is currently being tested on NBA and MLB markets, with others being added in the future.

ā€‹Canceling limit orders

When you have an open order, youā€™ll find it displayed just below the Order Book on the marketā€™s page.To cancel the order, you can simply click the red x button alongside the order.

If you have open orders across multiple markets, you can easily manage and monitor them all from the Portfolio page.

Nice! You can officially call yourself an advanced trader.

Liquidity Rewards

Learn how to earn rewards merely by placing trades on Polymarket

With Polymarketā€™s Liquidity Rewards Program, you can earn money by placing limit orders that help keep the market active and balanced.

ā€‹Overview

  • The closer your orders are to the marketā€™s average price, the more you earn.

  • The reward amount depends on how helpful your orders are in terms of size and pricing compared to others.

  • The more competitive your limit orders, the more you can make.

  • You get paid daily based on how much your orders add to the market, and can use our reward page to check your current earnings for the day, which markets have rewards in place, as well as how much.

  • Rewards are tallied per day. A day only pays out if your earnings for that day reach $1. If a day's earnings are below $1, they are not paid, and they do not roll over or add to any other day. Each day stands on its own.

Simply put, the more you help the market by placing good orders, the more rewards you earn!

Example

Earn $0.40 on Monday and $0.40 on Tuesday and neither day pays, the two days are not combined. Earn $1.20 on Wednesday and you're paid $1.20 at the next midnight UTC.

ā€‹Seeing Rewards in the Order Book

ā€‹Viewing Rewards

The total rewards, max spread, and minimum shares required to earn rewards vary by market. You can view the rewards for a given market in its Order Book.

  • On the Polymarket order book, you can hover over the Rewards text to see the amount of rewards available in total on each market.

  • The blue highlighted lines correspond to the max spread ā€” meaning the farthest distance your limit order can be from the midpoint of the market to earn rewards.

  • In the example below, because the max spread is 3c, every order within 3c of the midpoint is eligible for rewards. If the midpoint is < $0.10, you need to have orders on both sides to qualify.

ā€‹

Earning Rewards

When your orders are earning rewards youā€™ll see a blue highlight around the clock icon, as shown below:

ā€‹

Learn more

Rewards are paid out automatically every day at ~midnight UTC for the previous day's earnings, provided that day reached the $1 minimum. The earnings figure on your rewards page shows what you've generated for the current day, it is a daily total, not a running balance that accumulates toward a future payout. Your portfolio history reflects rewards actually paid to your address.

Does Polymarket Have Trading Limits?

By design, the Polymarket orderbook does not have trading size limits. It matches willing buyers and sellers of any amount.

However, there is no guarantee that it will be possible to transact a desired amount of shares without impacting the price significantly, or at all if there are no willing counterparties.

Before trading in any market, especially in large size, it is valuable to look at the orderbook to understand depth of liquidity, ie how many buyers or sellers are in the market and their desired trade size and price.
