Keyword search helps find a candidate, institution or event, while event pages let users compare related outcome contracts. Price movement and trading activity help prioritize reading; the exact contract wording still determines which political outcome is being traded. PredictIt is its own venue. When comparing an election headline with another site, match the seat, party and resolution conditions before comparing net payoffs. Its fee on profits changes the economics relative to venues charging transaction fees alone. ### Who it is for - Researchers following political events and elections. - Users comparing equivalent election contracts across venues. - Traders who prefer a focused political catalog. ## Features and coverage - **Political discovery** Browse national, state, local and world questions or search by candidate, institution and event. - **Outcome and price comparison** Compare contracts within an event, with quoted cents and daily price changes. - **Volume sorting** Prioritize actively traded questions while keeping the contract’s specific rules in view. - **News and learning** Use linked market context and educational material to support research. - **Account trading and funding terms** Manage outcome shares in the signed-in account workflow and review the published deposit and withdrawal changes before funding. ## Workflows with PredictIt ### Research an election Open the relevant market and confirm the exact seat, party and resolution wording. ### Compare a cross-venue price Match contract conditions first, then account for PredictIt’s profit fee when comparing the net payoff. ### Plan an account deposit Compare ACH and card charges, then check the account’s participation and position limits in the trading flow. ## Pricing and total cost Published terms list a 10% fee on profits, free ACH deposits and free ACH/check withdrawals. The announcement removes the former 5% withdrawal fee. It advertises the next card deposit as free up to $1,000; subsequent card deposits cost 3%. That one-deposit promotion is separate from ongoing card pricing. ## Getting started **Before you start:** Similar election headlines can have different contract wording. 1. Find the exact political question and read its contract rules. 2. Complete the platform’s account requirements. 3. Review participation and position limits in the account. 4. Choose a funding method after reviewing its charges. 5. Inspect the quote and manage outcome shares through the signed-in account. A fee on profits changes net payoffs compared with transaction-fee-only venues. ## Useful links ### What to check - Similar election headlines can have different contract wording. - The next-card-deposit promotion does not make all card deposits free. - Participation and position limits need checking in the account’s trading flow. - Profit fees must be included when comparing net outcomes across venues.
