About

DraftKings is a Boston-based digital sports entertainment and gaming company founded in 2012 by Jason Robins, Matthew Kalish, and Paul Liberman. Originally a daily fantasy sports platform, DraftKings pivoted following the 2018 Supreme Court PASPA ruling to become a full-service sportsbook and online casino operator. The company went public via SPAC merger in 2020 and now operates in 25+ states with online sports betting and in 7+ states with online casino products, under the DraftKings Sportsbook and DraftKings Casino brands.\n\nDraftKings has built product differentiation through its same-game parlay features, in-play betting markets, and the DraftKings Marketplace (an NFT-adjacent digital collectibles platform).

The company's ESPN partnership—announced as an exclusive sports-betting integration in November 2025—gives it access to ESPN's 75 million monthly unique visitors across linear TV and digital.\n\nDraftKings reported Q3 2025 revenue of $1.144B, with full-year 2025 revenue on track for approximately $4.5B+. The company holds approximately 35.3% of the U.S. sports betting market by gross gaming revenue, second only to FanDuel's 39.6%.
