How it works

Prediction markets in five steps. No jargon.

  1. 1

    Pick a question

    Every market asks something with a clear, checkable answer — who wins a match, whether a number lands above a level by a date. Each market names the source that will settle it.

  2. 2

    Buy the outcome you believe

    You buy shares in an outcome. Every winning share pays exactly ₦1 when the market settles. Losing shares pay nothing.

  3. 3

    The price is the probability

    A share priced at 42 kobo means the market currently rates that outcome at about 42%. Buy it, and you are paid ₦1 if it happens — so the cheaper you buy, the more you make when you are right.

  4. 4

    Change your mind any time

    You do not have to wait for the result. While a market is open you can sell your shares back at the current price and take the profit or cut the loss.

  5. 5

    Settlement

    When the event happens, the result is proposed against the stated source and published for a review window before payouts run. Winning shares are then paid ₦1 each, straight into your wallet.

A worked example

You think the answer is Yes, and Yes is trading at 40 kobo. You put in ₦2,000 and get about 5,000 shares. If it resolves Yes, those shares pay ₦5,000 — a ₦3,000 profit. If it does not, the shares expire worthless and you lose the ₦2,000 you staked. You could also have sold at any point before the result if the price moved your way.

Before you start

We charge 1.5% commission on the value of each trade, shown as its own line before you confirm. There is no fee to hold a position and none when a market settles. Your wallet shows which deposit and withdrawal methods are open to you right now, and the FAQ answers the rest.

Trade responsibly

18+ only. You can set a daily deposit cap or take a break at any time from your wallet. Never stake money you cannot afford to lose.
