ADI Predictstreet has launched its regulated prediction market platform ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup, with customer identity verification and AML screening provided through Sumsub.
The platform is FIFA’s Official Prediction Market Partner for the 2026 World Cup and is initially operating in Gibraltar. Through a partnership with Fanatics Markets, ADI Predictstreet is also available in 23 U.S. states through a co-branded World Cup Hub. Users can participate in football prediction markets and fund accounts through digital assets or fiat payment methods.
ADI Predictstreet says its compliance framework includes customer identity verification and AML screening through Sumsub, blockchain analytics and wallet monitoring through Global Ledger, and transaction surveillance supported by Modulus. The company is also using official and independent sports data sources, including Sportradar, Stats Perform, and LSports Data, to support market settlement and operational integrity.
The launch extends Sumsub’s presence in gaming, payments, and regulated online platforms. The company has integrated identity verification into Auth0 login flows for customer authentication and onboarding, while other identity vendors are also extending KYC and AML workflows into iGaming support environments.
Prediction markets have drawn growing scrutiny over identity verification and customer due diligence. U.S. lawmakers recently asked Polymarket and Kalshi for identity verification and KYC records, reflecting concerns about participation controls, compliance, and market integrity.
ADI Predictstreet is built on ADI Chain, which the company describes as institutional-grade blockchain infrastructure for stablecoins and real-world assets. The platform is designed to expand jurisdiction by jurisdiction through compliant strategic partners.
The identity and AML controls are central to that model, because prediction markets must verify customers, screen transactions, and monitor wallet activity while supporting high-volume consumer participation during live events. The World Cup use case adds scale, with a global audience, live markets, and rapid settlement requiring fraud controls that can operate without slowing every transaction.
ADI Predictstreet says it holds a distributed ledger technology license from the Gibraltar Financial Services Commission. The platform uses smart contracts for market creation, settlement, and payout, with identity and compliance checks running at account opening and at transaction-level triggers during live events. The Fanatics Markets co-branded hub gives U.S. users access through an established sports platform with its own existing customer base and payment infrastructure.
