OG.com Bonuses & Promotions

The OG app and website offer a welcome bonus for new customers, a referral program, and ongoing VIP rewards for high-volume traders. Overall, the promotional lineup is about average for the industry.

New Customer Bonus: Trade $20, Get $20

New OG users who open trades totaling at least $20 within five days of signing up receive a $20 bonus. OG.com issues the bonus as three trade credits:

• One $10 credit
• Two $5 credits

Here’s where the terms get restrictive:

• You can only use credits on contracts priced below $0.80, meaning you cannot apply them to high probability outcomes where the risk is lowest.
• Positions you close early (by selling before settlement) do not count toward the $20 threshold.
• You must use credits in whole, meaning you can’t split a $10 credit across two trades, and you can only apply one credit per order.
• If a trade and its fees total less than the credit value, the unused portion is forfeited. For example, if you use the $10 credit on a $7 position, you lose the remaining $3.
• Unused trade credits expire seven days after receipt.

The theoretical value of this bonus tops out at $20, but reaching that maximum requires three separate trades where each trade’s cost and fees are at least equal to the credit amount.

The credits offset both the trade amount and fees, which is a nice feature, but the seven-day expiration window, whole-credit usage requirement, and sub-$0.80 pricing restriction all chip away at the real-world value.

Compared to other prediction market bonuses, OG.com’s bonus ranks in the middle of the pack. Several other prediction market apps offer similar first-trade match bonuses (e.g., trade $10, get $10 in cash) with simpler redemption rules.

Overall, the welcome bonus is functional but unremarkable. It’s enough to give new traders a small cushion while taking OG.com for a test drive, but it isn’t a major selling point.

OG.com Refer-a-Friend Bonus

OG.com offers more earning potential for referring friends than the average prediction market’s referral program. When you refer your friends, both of you receive milestone bonuses based on the new user’s trading volume over their first 30 days:

Referred User’s Trade Volume (first 30 days)	Your Milestone Bonus	Your Friend’s Milestone Bonus
$100	$10	$10
$500	$30	$30
$1,000	$60	$60
$2,500	$150	$150

The fact that these bonuses are cumulative makes OG.com’s referral program more valuable than most. In total, both you and your friend can each earn up to $250 in bonuses.

However, there are some important terms to keep in mind:

• You can only refer friends once you’ve traded at least $50 worth of contracts.
• Only contracts that settle within the 30-day window count toward your friends’ trading milestones. In other words, if your friend buys a contract that settles after the 30-day window closes, it won’t count.
• Contracts priced at $.80 or higher do not contribute.
• OG.com calculates trade volume as buy orders minus canceled orders, reversed trades, and sell orders.
• You can refer up to 100 friends.

OG’s referral program is generous compared to others, but the way it calculates “total trade volume” is a major caveat. If your friend buys contracts and then sells them before settlement, the entire round-trip trade does not count. That means only contracts your friend buys and holds until settlement count toward your bonus milestones.

OG VIP Program

OG.com offers a VIP program, but it’s invitation-only, and details are sparse. That said, the benefits OG.com has described sound appealing:

• Exclusive promotions
• Higher deposit limits
• A dedicated relationship manager
• Priority support
• “Elevated experiences”
• Premium swag
• A direct feedback line where you can “influence the future of OG with your input”

However, the lack of qualification details and specific benefit details makes it impossible to assess the program’s actual value.

How OG.com Works

OG offers prediction markets based on yes-or-no questions about real-world events. Traders buy and sell “Yes” and “No” contracts based on whether they think the outcome will happen. Prices range from $0.01 to $0.99 and resolve at $1.00 if the outcome happens and $0 if the outcome does not.

For example, if you believe the San Francisco 49ers will win an upcoming game and the Yes contract is priced at $0.55, you’d pay $0.55 per contract. If you hold those contracts until the game is finished, they’ll resolve in one of two ways:

• If the 49ers win: Each contract pays $1, netting you $0.45 per contract (minus fees)
• If the 49ers lose: Each contract expires at a value of $0, and you lose the $0.55 per contract that you invested

You can also sell your position before the event settles at the current market price (useful if the price has moved in your favor and you want to lock in a profit, or if you want to cut your losses).

For a more detailed explanation of how prediction markets work, including mechanics like implied probability, order matching, and price movement, see our main prediction markets guide here:

OG.com Trading Fees

OG.com operates on a flat fee model:

• Open a position: $0.02 per contract
• Close a position early (sell before settlement): $0.02 per contract
• Positions you hold to settlement (win or loss): No fee

The waived settlement fee is a notable benefit. If you buy and hold a position through settlement, you’ll only pay the $0.02 opening fee. Traders who frequently buy and sell before settlement will pay $0.04 per round trip ($0.02 to open + $0.02 to close).

For context, Kalshi uses a variable formula that maxes out at roughly $0.02 per contract on taker orders, although Kalshi fees are lower on contracts priced near the extremes (close to $0.01 or $0.99) and highest on 50/50 contracts.

OG’s flat $0.02 per contract is simple to understand but not the cheapest option in the space for high-volume traders.

OG.com Sports Prediction Markets

OG covers a wide range of sports with markets for major US and international leagues, including:

• NBA
• College basketball
• NFL
• College football
• MLB
• NHL
• Soccer
• Tennis
• Golf
• Formula 1

Market types include winner (moneyline), point spread, totals, and player props such as points, assists, and goals. OG also offers futures markets on season-long outcomes (e.g., who will win the Super Bowl).

Unlike some prediction markets, OG supports combined positions that are essentially parlays and same-game parlays with higher payouts. The availability of parlays is a nice benefit, but they’re not as flexible as you’ll find at online sportsbooks:

• Maximum of 4 legs
• Pre-match only (no live/in-play legs)
• Only team-level markets like the game winner, point spread, and total are eligible for parlay-style contracts; OG.com does not yet support player prop parlays

Other OG Prediction Market Categories

In addition to sports, OG offers event contracts in several other categories:

• Culture (“Who will win Best Picture at the Oscars?” “Which artist will win Album of the Year at the Grammys?”)
• Politics (“Who will win the presidential election?” “Which party will control the US Senate after midterms?”)
• Economics (“Will the next CPI reading exceed 3%?” “Will the Fed cut interest rates at its next meeting?” “Will the unemployment rate stay below 4.5%?”)
• Crypto (“Will Bitcoin hit its next all-time high by the end of the year?” “Will Eth hit its all-time high by next month?”)
• Financials (“Will the US Tech 100 Index close above a specific value by a given date?” “What will the US SmallCap 2000 Index reach?”)
• Companies (“Which company will have the highest market cap by year-end?” “Will a specific company IPO before a certain date?” “Which company will lead in AI by the end of the year?”)

How to Sign Up for an OG.com Account

Signing up for an OG.com account is straightforward and should only take a few minutes:

• Visit OG.com or download the app and hit the “Sign Up” button.
• Enter your email address and create an account. If you already have a Crypto.com account, you can log in with your existing username and password.
• Verify your email using the 6-digit code sent to your inbox.
• Enter and verify your phone number by providing the 6-digit code OG.com sends to you via text message.
• Create a 6-digit numerical passcode for login and transaction verification.
• Submit identity verification: Provide your first and last name, date of birth, and the last four digits of your Social Security Number.

If OG cannot verify your identity with that information alone, it will ask you to upload a photo of a government-issued ID and a selfie.

Note: Federal law requires all US prediction markets to verify the age and identity of every customer. OG.com’s registration and identity verification processes are not unusual.

OG App Review

The OG.com app is available on iOS, Android, and through its mobile-friendly website. The iOS app holds a 4.2/5 rating in the App Store, while the Google Play version sits at 4.0/5.

App Highlights

The OG app is lightweight and responsive. Load times are fast, navigation between market categories is smooth, and the trade execution process (from selecting an outcome to confirming an order) involves just a few taps.

If you’ve ever bet on sports, you’ll find OG’s sports prediction markets familiar because they use standard terminology like moneyline, point spread, and parlay, and it’s easy to tell how much you stand to win or lose.

Three standout features make OG.com stand out from most other prediction market apps:

• Live Chat: Every event page includes a real-time social hub where traders can discuss outcomes, share their opinions, and watch a live stream of trading activity as the event plays out.
• Leaderboards: Leaderboards add a competitive element by ranking traders by total trading volume, net profit, and win rate.
• Parlay Hub: The parlay hub lists compatible Yes/No positions that you can combine into multi-leg positions, which reduces the guesswork of figuring out which markets you can combine.

App Shortcomings

There are areas where the OG app could improve. Most significantly, neither the app nor the website supports limit orders. Instead, traders must accept the current market price, which can result in worse fills during fast-moving or low liquidity markets.

Additionally, the OG app offers no way to view order book depth or trading volume on individual markets. The lack of detailed order book info makes it harder to gauge liquidity before entering positions, which compounds the downsides of not having access to limit orders.

OG.com Deposits & Withdrawals

OG.com supports an above-average range of deposit methods, but payouts are more limited. ACH is the only withdrawal method, with a $1 minimum, a daily cap of $100,000 (or five withdrawals), and a monthly cap of $500,000 (or 30 withdrawals). There are no withdrawal fees.

Method	Min Deposit	Max Deposit	Fee

How OG Compares

OG competes in an increasingly competitive field against major operators like FanDuel Predicts and Coinbase Predictions. Here are some of our thoughts on how OG.com compares to other options:

• Fees: OG’s flat $0.02 per contract is transparent and easy to calculate, but it’s not the cheapest. Kalshi’s variable formula can produce lower fees on contracts priced near the extremes, and Polymarket charges zero fees on most of its markets. For high-volume traders, those differences add up. For occasional traders, OG’s fee structure is reasonable, and the no-fee settlement on winning and losing positions is a plus.
• Trading Tools: The lack of limit orders is OG’s most notable weakness compared to Kalshi, which supports both limit and market orders. The ability to place a resting order at a specific price gives Kalshi traders more control over execution. OG also doesn’t surface order book depth or market volume data, which are standard features on more mature platforms.
• Sports Prediction Markets: OG’s sports menu (including player props, spreads, totals, and parlays) is competitive with more established operators and broader than what many newer platforms offer.
• Non-sports Markets: OG.com’s non-sports categories (politics, economics, financials, companies, culture) are far less numerous than what you’ll find at the likes of Kalshi and Polymarket.
• User Experience: This is where OG distinguishes itself. The app is fast, visually clean, and feels built for prediction markets from the ground up. The social features (live chat and leaderboards) give OG more personality than most competitors, which tend to feel more like sterile trading terminals.
• Customer Reviews: Early user feedback on Reddit, app stores, and community forums has been generally positive, with traders praising the interface and ease of use. The most common complaints center on the lack of limit orders and the desire for even deeper sports coverage.
• Banking: OG supports more deposit methods than most prediction market apps. The downside is that some of its convenient methods carry fees (1.49% to 1.99%), and withdrawals are ACH-only.

OG.com Customer Support

OG.com offers customer support via live chat and e-mail. The lack of a 24/7 phone number is a noteworthy omission given OG.com’s status as a regulated financial products platform. However, the OG live chat function aced our test query.

Here’s what we found:

Live Chat: You can contact live chat through the OG app or online at help.og.com. An AI chatbot handles initial inquiries and is surprisingly adept at answering common questions about deposits, withdrawals, trading rules, and account issues. For more complex issues, the chatbot escalates users to a human support rep.

In a test inquiry, we asked a complicated question not covered in the knowledge base. A human agent responded just under three minutes later and provided a courteous, straightforward answer.

Email: For less pressing issues, users can contact support via email at contact@og.com.

Knowledge Base: The knowledge base at help.og.com is more thorough than what most prediction market platforms offer. It covers deposit methods, withdrawal processes, promotions, common account issues, and fees. Finding a question that required escalation past the chatbot took some effort, which is a credit to OG’s knowledge base.

X/Twitter: OG is also active on X at @OG_com.

OG.com FAQ

Final Thoughts: Is OG.com Legit?

OG.com is a legitimate, federally regulated prediction market platform operated by an established and reputable parent company.

The company behind OG is Crypto.com, one of the largest digital financial platforms in the world, with over 150 million users globally. Crypto.com acquired what became CDNA in 2022, in what was then the largest acquisition in crypto industry history, and has been offering CFTC-regulated event contracts since 2024.

Crypto.com’s decision to spin prediction markets into a standalone brand reflects the scale of the business, not a fly-by-night operation testing the waters.

On the customer safety side, OG covers all the bases. OG holds customer funds and processes transactions through regulated banking institutions only, not in crypto wallets or offshore accounts. Furthermore, OG.com transparently documents its fee structures, trading rules, and contract settlement terms.

The OG app is not perfect, and there’s room for improvement in areas like non-sports market variety and withdrawal methods, but we’ve observed zero red flags when it comes to legitimacy and security.
