The edge on each row is marked. Rows that describe rather than rank — jurisdiction, currencies, market categories — say “no edge” instead of picking a side.

| Fee conditions & evidence | Single-event (straight) trades: "All straight trades on site will be charged a 2% trading fee on net gains per market" (prophetx.co Trading Fees page, v1.2, updated 24 Sep 2026; also the help centre's Understanding Fees page). The CFTC self-certification words this as "2% of net proceeds ... calculated on a per-market basis upon settlement" (ProphetX LLC filing, 12 June 2026, extended 14 Aug 2026). The same filing sets a monthly make-volume rebate on fees paid: 0% up to $50k, then 20%, 40%, 60% and 80% marginal tiers above $7.5M. Parlay contracts: the fee is charged only to the taker, using F(p) = 0.014 x (1-p)/(0.19+p) + 0.004 per contract, with a $0.01 minimum. The help centre says "If your resting order is filled by an incoming order (a maker order), you are not charged a trade fee." The minimum deposit is $10 (help centre). Neither the operator's help centre nor its terms list a deposit or withdrawal fee, and the EdgeBoost deposit route is described as having "no fees". Terms 6.11: "Your access to Account funds will automatically expire in the event an Account becomes Dormant", where dormant means 60 days with no trading. Review evidence · Official fee source | PredictIt charges 10% of profit on profitable share sales or settlement, using purchase order (FIFO) for partial sales. No profit fee applies to break-even or losing trades. Withdrawals cost 5%, with a 30-day hold after the initial deposit; the terms allow additional method-specific charges. These percentages use different bases and must not be added into a single 15% trading fee. Review evidence · Official fee source | Depends on the trade |

Wires also need a bank statement, ID and a selfie holding the ID. | — | No edge |
