    StarsDraft by PokerStars


    When we founded our company in 2014, our goal was to build a better, more engaging daily fantasy sports experience. For our team, everything begins and ends with the product and user-experience. We couple our passion for great technical infrastructure and sports into an offering that enhances the way millions of Americans experience sports.

    Our Philosophy


    Product First — One should never have to accept "good enough". Our business is about bringing a better, more engaging experience to our users. At StarsDraft, it's all about constant innovation — the best or nothing.

    A Better Experience — Few are fortunate enough to do what they truly love, but for us, our passion has become our business. We're creating a new daily fantasy sports experience — ready to join us?
