DraftKings has officially ended its daily fantasy sports (DFS) operations in the UK, completing its withdrawal from the European market. The company had been operational in the UK with its DFS product since 2016 but struggled to gain significant traction compared to its dominance in North America.
DraftKings ceased its UK DFS operations on 4 October, and players have until 3 June 2025 to withdraw any remaining funds.
In-game currencies, such as Crowns and DK dollars, will be converted to US dollars for payout after the closing date.
The decision is part of a broader strategy to prioritise resources where the company sees the highest growth potential.
