Availability in Italy

Betfair Exchange operates under an Italian licence. Smarkets is available in Italy. Crypto-native platforms are largely unlicensed and several restrict Italian users.

Regulation in Italy

Agenzia delle Dogane e dei Monopoli (ADM) issues remote gaming concessions. CONSOB polices unlicensed financial offerings and regularly orders ISP blocks.

How prediction markets work here

Pick a site that accepts Italy residents, create an account or connect a self-custody wallet, then fund it. On an exchange you buy and sell contracts against other users rather than against a bookmaker, and each contract settles at its full value or at zero once the outcome is confirmed. Prices move as opinion changes, so you can close a position early rather than waiting for settlement.

Deposits and withdrawals

Funding options in Italy depend on the platform type. Regulated exchanges use cards and bank transfers in local or major currencies and require identity verification first. Crypto-native platforms take stablecoin deposits, usually USDC on a low-fee network, and withdraw back to your own wallet. Check withdrawal fees and minimums on each listing before depositing.
