DraftKings and FanDuel both require $5 to get started — DraftKings rewards new users with $150 in bonus bets after $5 are spent, while FanDuel returns up to $1,000 in bet reset tokens if the user bets $5 for five days, with a bet reset token allotted for each $5 bet.

  3. Prediction markets and horse racing Prediction markets like Kalshi and Polymarket offer users a way to trade on horse racing outcomes.
