Execution Notes

• For the best execution, we recommend leaving slippage enabled.

• Prediction trades use an orderbook, so prices may move based on market demand.

Cashing Out Open Predictions

You can exit a prediction at any time before the event resolves by selling your position back to the market.

Steps:

1. Navigate to the Wallet screen.

2. Find the open prediction you want to cash out.

3. Tap Cash Out, then hold to confirm.

Your position will be sold at the best available market price.

Cashing Out Settled Predictions

Once an event has concluded, prediction markets do not settle instantly. Settlement may take several hours before reaching the final payout price.

Why Settlement Takes Time

Prediction markets rely on official event outcomes and on-chain resolution processes. After a game ends, the market must be finalized and verified before payouts are distributed, ensuring accuracy and preventing disputes.

After settlement is complete, winning predictions are moved from your wallet to the Wick Sports homepage.

Steps:

1. Tap the ball icon to open Wick Sports.

2. Navigate to the homepage.

3. Under Winning Picks, tap Redeem All to claim settled payouts.

Once redeemed, funds will be credited to your prediction balance.
