PrizePicks broadens US market reach with new licenses in Puerto Rico and Maine

PrizePicks has secured gaming licenses in both Puerto Rico and Maine, expanding its operational footprint in the regulated gaming markets. 

This move supports the company’s ongoing growth strategy and enhances its presence in the US and territories.

With this latest development, PrizePicks becomes the first daily fantasy sports operator to receive a gaming license in Puerto Rico, positioning the company to offer its services to a new market under the region’s regulatory framework.

PrizePicks users in Maine now have access to Arena, with plans to launch the platform in Puerto Rico in the upcoming months. Once this is completed, the company will offer its contests in a total of 47 jurisdictions across the United States.

Adam Packer, SVP of Legal & Compliance at PrizePicks said: “We’re grateful to the Puerto Rico Gaming Commission and the Maine Gambling Control Unit for their partnership and support throughout the licensure process. 

Good to know: PrizePicks has partnered with Klutch Sports Group, appointing the agency as its Strategic Brand Advisor

“We’ve seen tremendous engagement with Arena across the country, and we’re confident that momentum will carry into these new jurisdictions.”

Alongside its expansion efforts, PrizePicks is also focusing on responsible gaming.

In 2025, the company received iCAP accreditation from the National Council on Problem Gambling (NCPG) for its responsible gaming policies and practices.

Odds tell a story long before the result does. When bettors learn to read that story properly, betting becomes a matter of discipline and value rather than emotion or guesswork.
