Polymarket signed a multi-year regional partnership with Serie A USA, making Polymarket the exclusive prediction market platform for the league in the United States and securing brand integrations across Serie A’s US media and digital channels. The Polymarket Serie A prediction market will be powered by official league data from Genius Sports to ensure accuracy and integrity across all Serie A offerings on the platform.
The deal marks Polymarket’s second major international soccer partnership, following an agreement with LALIGA North America, and builds a portfolio that also includes MLB, NHL, UFC and MLS ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup on American soil.
Polymarket shows how locking in exclusive prediction-market rights across the world’s top leagues can position the platform as the default destination for fan participation.
