How do I use DraftKings?

To use DraftKings, a person must first sign up for an account on the DraftKings website or mobile app, which requires providing some personal information and confirming that they are of legal age for fantasy sports in their area. Once registered, users can deposit funds into their accounts using various methods, such as credit cards or PayPal. They can then join contests by drafting a lineup of players within a set salary cap, which varies depending on the sport and type of contest. After choosing their lineup, users submit it into the selected contest before the event starts. As the real-world games unfold, participants accumulate points based on their chosen players' performances. The aim is to score more points than other contestants to win prizes, which can range from cash to entry tickets for other competitions. Users can withdraw their winnings or use them to enter more contests. DraftKings covers a wide range of sports including NFL, NBA, MLB, and PGA, among others, offering both free and paid contests with varying prize pools and competition levels.
