Revenue Overview

Seven Streams. One Engine.

Every action a trader takes, from placing to settling, produces platform revenue. Each card shows a typical contribution to total platform income.

Maker Fees

Charged on resting limit orders that add depth to the book. Low rate, high frequency, designed to reward liquidity while still monetizing it.

Taker Fees

Charged on orders that cross the spread and remove liquidity. The largest single stream, scaling directly with trading volume.

Sell Fees

Applied when traders exit positions before resolution. Early exits are a feature users love, and a stream the platform earns on.

Resolution Fees

A small percentage deducted from winning payouts when a market resolves. Scales with pool size and market count.

Settlement Margin

Margin retained from the total settlement pool during payout distribution. Structural revenue earned on every resolved market.

Order Management Fees

Micro-fees on order amendments, cancellations beyond fair-use thresholds, and premium order types such as stops and brackets.

AMM Spread Income

The automated market maker quotes both sides of every market, capturing the spread on each round trip, 24/7, even in thin markets.

Trading Revenue

Every Fill Is a Fee Event

Every Fill Is a Fee Event

The matching engine prices the two sides of every trade differently, protecting depth while monetizing volume.

M Maker fees with incentivized liquidity

Resting limit orders earn a discounted fee tier. Deep books attract takers, and takers drive the volume flywheel.

T Taker fees as a premium for immediacy

Market orders pay for instant execution. Taker flow is the platform's highest-margin, highest-frequency stream.

⟳ Trade lifecycle monetization

Order placed, matched, fee captured, position opened. The cycle repeats every time the position changes hands.

Position Exit Revenue
Early Exits, Earned Twice

Traders do not have to wait for resolution. Selling a position back to the market, to lock in profit or cut a loss, triggers a sell fee on the exit value.

↗ Profit-taking exits

When the odds move in a trader's favor, they can realize gains instantly. The platform earns a sell fee on the proceeds.

↘ Risk-off exits

Cutting losses early keeps users solvent and active, and still generates exit revenue on every de-risking trade.

∞ Position recycling

Every exited position becomes new inventory for another trader. Each handoff generates fresh maker and taker fees.

Resolution Revenue

Settlement Is a Revenue Event

Settlement Is a Revenue Event

When an outcome is confirmed, the engine distributes the pool to winners, and the platform earns at two points in the payout waterfall.

✓ Resolution fees

A fixed percentage deducted from winning payouts at settlement. Predictable, pool-proportional revenue on every resolved market.

Δ Pool margin revenue

Structural margin retained from the total settlement pool, the pricing asymmetry between collected stakes and distributed payouts.

⚖ Verifiable resolution process

Oracle-fed or admin-resolved outcomes with a full audit trail. Fast, transparent settlement keeps users redepositing.

AMM Revenue
The Market Maker That Never Sleeps

The integrated Automated Market Maker quotes both sides of every outcome continuously. Where order books go quiet, the AMM keeps trading, and keeps earning.

≋ Guaranteed liquidity provision

LMSR-seeded pools mean a tradable price exists from the second a market opens. No cold-start problem, no empty books.

⇄ Spread income on every round trip

The gap between AMM bid and ask is captured by the platform each time a trader buys then sells through the pool.

24 Continuous revenue generation

Unlike fee revenue that depends on order flow, spread income accrues 24/7 across every open market simultaneously.

Why Operators Choose This Model
Built Like an Exchange. Earns Like a Portfolio.
Diversified Revenue Streams

Seven independent streams mean no single point of revenue failure. Thin order books? The AMM still earns.

Recurring Transaction Revenue

Every trade, exit, and settlement is a fee event. Revenue compounds with user activity, not headcount.

Scalable Growth Model

Marginal cost per market approaches zero. Adding markets multiplies revenue surface without multiplying ops.

Enterprise-Grade Infrastructure

Sub-millisecond matching, horizontally scalable settlement, audit-grade ledgers, and configurable compliance hooks.

Liquidity-Driven Economics

The hybrid CLOB + LMSR + AMM design keeps spreads tight, which drives volume, which drives fees. A self-reinforcing flywheel.

Sustainable Business Model

Revenue scales with engagement, not with risk exposure. The platform earns on flow, never against its users.

FAQ
Buyer Questions, Answered

Everything enterprise buyers, investors, and operators ask before launching a prediction market platform.

How does a prediction market platform generate revenue?
Revenue is captured across the full trade lifecycle: maker and taker fees on execution, sell fees on early exits, resolution and settlement fees at market close, settlement margin from payout pools, order management fees, and continuous AMM spread income from automated liquidity provision.
What is a hybrid CLOB + LMSR + AMM architecture?
It combines a Central Limit Order Book for efficient price discovery in liquid markets, a Logarithmic Market Scoring Rule for bootstrapping new or thin markets, and an Automated Market Maker that guarantees continuous two-sided liquidity. The hybrid maximizes fill rates, keeps spreads tight, and ensures the platform earns on every trade regardless of depth.
What is the difference between maker fees and taker fees?
Maker fees apply to orders that add liquidity (resting limit orders) and are priced lower to incentivize depth. Taker fees apply to orders that remove liquidity (market orders) and are priced higher. The differential protects book depth while monetizing volume.
How does AMM spread income work?
The platform's AMM quotes a buy and a sell price on every outcome. The difference, known as the spread, is captured on every round trip through the pool. Because the AMM is always on, this stream accrues 24/7, even in low-volume markets.
What are resolution and settlement fees?
When a market resolves, a small resolution fee is deducted from winning payouts and a settlement margin may be retained from the total pool. Both scale directly with pool size and market count, monetizing the final stage of the lifecycle.
Can this be white-labeled for sports trading or fantasy platforms?
Yes. The engine is built for exchanges, prediction markets, fantasy platforms, sports trading, and enterprise operators. Fee schedules, AMM parameters, market templates, and settlement rules are fully configurable per operator, category, or jurisdiction.
How quickly can an operator launch?
With the pre-built engine, operators typically launch in 8 to 12 weeks including branding, market configuration, compliance integration, and payment rails, versus 12+ months building from scratch.
Is the model sustainable in low-volume conditions?
Yes, by design. When order-book volume is thin, the AMM continues earning spread income and resolution fees still accrue at settlement. Diversification means no single stream carries the business.
How is regulatory compliance handled?
The platform ships with configurable compliance hooks: KYC/AML provider integration, jurisdiction-based market gating, position limits, responsible-play controls, and audit-grade transaction ledgers. Regulatory obligations vary by jurisdiction and product type, so operators should confirm requirements with their own legal counsel.
Does the platform take directional risk against users?
No. Revenue is flow-based, coming from fees and spread, not house exposure. The AMM is parameterized for bounded inventory risk and rebalances continuously, so platform earnings scale with activity rather than betting outcomes.
