US fantasy product; availability varies

This brand is not licensed in the markets we cover (or only in part of them), so it has no Wayfinder Score. If you play there, you do not get the protections a local licence brings: limits, self-exclusion and a regulator to complain to.

What it is

Yahoo Sports is best known for free season-long fantasy leagues, used by millions of American fans. Its daily fantasy product let users pay an entry fee to draft a line-up for a single day or week and compete for cash prizes.

We could not confirm which paid contests Yahoo offers today, so check the app before you rely on it.

Where it stands

Paid daily fantasy is treated as a contest of skill in most US states and regulated as such, while some states restrict or ban it. It is not a licensed sportsbook in the markets we cover (US, UK, Ireland, Spain, Germany, Portugal, South Africa and Ontario).

Free season-long leagues involve no entry fee and are not gambling.

What to know

Daily entry fees add up quickly, and a small group of high-volume players wins a large share of prize money in daily fantasy.

We do not score fantasy products.
