Local focus. Clear accountability.

Meet the publisher and learn how Manhattan Prediction Markets researches coverage, handles corrections and explains affiliate relationships to readers.

What we publish

We explain the platforms, contract mechanics, and New York developments that help readers make sense of prediction markets. We distinguish facts, provider claims, and editorial interpretation. We do not offer personal investment advice.

Publisher: Catie Di Stefano

Catie Di Stefano is the publisher of Manhattan Prediction Markets. Her gambling-industry career began in 2011 and includes U.S. product launches, affiliate publishing, editorial leadership and responsible-gambling education. She approves the publication’s editorial direction and partner relationships.

Publisher responsibility is distinct from article authorship, legal review and hands-on platform testing. A personal review credit is added only after that review has taken place.

Who creates the content

The editorial team uses AI-assisted research and drafting. We do not claim professional legal review or named human authorship where those steps have not occurred. Illustrative city images are AI-generated.

How affiliate relationships work

We have partner tracking links for Kalshi (opens in a new tab), Polymarket US (opens in a new tab), OG.com, and ProphetX. A qualifying signup or action may generate commission. Our comparison order is not a paid ranking. We do not invent scores or describe a reward as guaranteed cash. Commercial relationships do not establish the legality or suitability of a product.

Partner offers require current terms, location eligibility, and qualifying activity. The source of a promotional offer is the supplied partner brief unless another source is named. Material uncertainties appear beside the relevant platform.

Research and corrections

Our research methodology explains source selection, comparison criteria, evidence labels and correction handling. Our New York timeline separates state statements, exchange registrations and provider announcements.

Articles link to primary sources and show dates. An announcement of litigation is reported as an announcement, not a final judgment. We update a material statement when new evidence supports a correction. Sources are checked during editorial updates; this site is not a real-time monitoring service.

Privacy and data

Affiliate providers may track referrals after you follow partner links, under their own policies. The live CMS site’s privacy notice describes its hosting, analytics and data practices.

Trading risk

Event contracts can lose the full purchase amount and fees. Use only funds you can afford to lose. Do not use a geographic workaround or another product to bypass restrictions. If trading becomes difficult to control, stop and seek appropriate support.
