Polymarket Hits Home Run with MLB Partnership Deal
Polymarket has been designated Major League Baseball’s official prediction market partner, gaining exclusive access to official league data, permission to use MLB logos, and brand exposure at games and across the league’s digital channels. Concurrently, MLB signed a memorandum of understanding with Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) chairman Michael Selig to share information related to baseball and prediction markets. MLB framed the partnership as a mechanism to enforce integrity standards after previously expressing concern about prediction markets’ impact on sports audiences. Polymarket, which had been banned from U.S. operations in the past, resumed U.S. activity after the CFTC eased regulatory barriers in September and has since announced data partnerships with Google and Palantir and sports deals with Major League Soccer and Major League Hockey.

Dyn Media has acquired rights to European table tennis competitions (ETTU events) until 2028, including European Championships, Europe Top 16 Cup, and ETTU Champions League matches, with exclusive rights in Germany and non-exclusive in Austria and Switzerland.
