About Us: Who Reviews These Prediction Platforms

EventEdge is an editorial team of reviewers and fact-checkers who open real accounts, trade real money and publish what they find about regulated prediction-market platforms. This page explains who we are, how the site earns its keep, and why you can rely on what we publish.

How we make money: some links on this site are affiliate links. The affiliate-disclosure section below explains exactly how that works and why it never changes a score. 18+.

What we do

HERO ILLUSTRATION: probability curve on navy (key: hero-market-abstract)

Placeholder mission statement: we compare licensed event-trading platforms so adults can make an informed choice before registering. Every review is based on a real, funded test account; every offer summary quotes the operator's published conditions verbatim; and every page states plainly that real money is at risk.

Placeholder paragraph on scope: ranked comparisons, full platform reviews, head-to-head matchups, an offer directory with verbatim terms, market guides and a quarterly industry data report.

How we rate platforms

One weighted scorecard, applied identically to every platform: regulation and trust 30%, fees and pricing 25%, markets and liquidity 25%, usability and payments 20%. Placeholder summary of the testing protocol — register, verify, deposit, trade three categories, test support and limits, withdraw everything.

Why trust us?

  • Real accounts, real money. Placeholder: every figure in a review was observed on our own funded account, not copied from marketing.
  • Two sets of eyes. Placeholder: a second reviewer fact-checks every claim and date before publication.
  • Documented corrections. Placeholder: errors are corrected visibly under the policy in our editorial guidelines.
  • No pay-for-position. Placeholder: ranking order follows the weighted score; operators cannot buy placement.

Check our work

Placeholder invitation: licence references, fee schedules and offer terms are linked from every review so readers can verify each claim at the source.

Our service is free (affiliate disclosure)

Reading EventEdge costs nothing and never will. Placeholder explanation: when a reader opens an account through some links on this site, the operator may pay us a commission. The commission comes from the operator's marketing budget, not from the reader, and the price of using the platform is the same either way.

What commissions never buy: a higher position in our rankings, a softer review, the removal of a criticism, or early sight of an unpublished article. Scores are locked before commercial agreements are discussed. 18+.

Our authors and on-hand experts

Placeholder introduction to the editorial team: backgrounds in financial journalism, sports analytics and regulatory compliance; every byline links to a full profile with credentials and a contact route.
