Close your DraftKings Predictions account

Permanently close DraftKings Predictions

Review positions and the carrying account

Record open positions, available cash, pending transfers, and the connected FCM. Do not open a new position to prepare the account.

Close or reduce positions when safe

Use only the official Predictions controls. Resolve the FCM cash balance and transfer status separately; closing Predictions does not close the FCM or designated contract market account.

Use Login & Security or support

Follow the permanent-close control in Login & Security, or email support@draftkings.com from the registered address. Name DraftKings Predictions in the request.

Keep the product-specific confirmation

Ask for the effective date and the result for each remaining position, transfer, cash balance, and external account. Do not assume a generic DraftKings confirmation resolves those contracts.

The terms say obligations survive closure. They also say closure does not close other FCM or designated contract market accounts.

Self-exclude from DraftKings Predictions

Use product-wide DraftKings self-exclusion

DraftKings' current self-exclusion page says the restriction covers its products, including Predictions and Golden Nugget. It also warns that open event-contract positions become unsellable.

Use Account Information → Self-Exclusion or official support. If access is unsafe, do not delay the protection to trade. Ask support and the connected FCM to record the position and cash outcome.

What self-exclusion actually does (and doesn't)

It is designed to block play for the period you choose. Whether it covers new sign-ups or can be changed early depends on the operator and jurisdiction; follow the platform-specific details above.

Do not assume self-exclusion deletes account data, stops every message, or covers other sites; exact scope varies. Consider account closure, mailbox controls, and a blocking tool as additional layers.

Stop DraftKings Predictions emails

The reviewed Predictions terms do not establish one product-specific marketing preference route. Use an unsubscribe instruction when present and ask support to record a marketing opt-out separately from closure or self-exclusion.

You can also use your mailbox's search, filter, and bulk-delete controls. Review the privacy terms and current price before granting any third-party cleanup tool access to your inbox.

Frequently asked questions

Does Predictions closure close DraftKings Sportsbook or DFS?

The reviewed product terms describe a distinct Predictions Account. Do not assume closure applies to other DraftKings products; name each account that needs action.

Does closure close the FCM account?

No. The terms expressly keep other FCM and designated contract market accounts separate.
