Novig Sports Betting Exchange Quadruples Valuation to $2B
Novig, a New York-based sports betting exchange startup, is set to quadruple its valuation to approximately $2 billion in a new funding round expected to close by winter, as reported by Front Office Sports. Founded in 2021, Novig operates a prediction market where users trade contracts on sports outcomes, generating revenue through fees. In February, the company raised $75 million at a $500 million valuation. Novig received CFTC approval in June, enabling operations across all 50 US states, and has seen over $5 billion traded on its platform. Despite this growth, Novig remains smaller than competitors Kalshi ($40B valuation) and Polymarket ($21B). However, regulatory challenges loom, as New York has sued those competitors for alleged illegal gambling, and Spain has temporarily blocked them, with the EU's ESMA warning that such contracts may fall under the binary options ban. Novig's future depends on whether its federal approval shields it from state lawsuits.
