“Atlanta has always been our home, where we are redefining mobile sports entertainment,” said Adam Wexler, co-founder and CEO of PrizePicks. “This move to Star Metals will help create more world-class, high-skill, high-paying jobs in our great city while deepening connections across our community.”
PrizePix, one of North America's largest daily fantasy sports operators, said it plans to add 1,000 jobs over the next seven years.
PrizePix allows users to choose top or bottom based on an athlete's stats and have a chance to win cash prizes. At least he'll have to combine two picks to earn entry.
Although traditional sports gambling is not legal in Georgia, PrizePicks falls into the daily fantasy category. Other competitors in this space include Underdog Fantasy and Sleeper, which operate similar platforms.
PrizePicks is currently legal in 29 states and Washington, DC
