Crypto.com and PYMNTS Team on AI Predictions Market Contracts

AI’s accelerating economic impact is getting a trusted, independent source to measure how adoption is evolving.

Crypto.com and PYMNTS announce an exclusive two-year partnership to launch AI Predictions Market Contracts on OG Prediction Markets, an exchange and clearinghouse regulated by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) that will distribute products through Crypto.com’s introducing broker and other partners.

The AI Predictions Market Contracts will be the first to deploy independently measured AI adoption across consumers, enterprises and public companies. According to the release,  these contracts can turn trusted measurements into market intelligence and tradable contracts that provide a new way to understand how AI is changing the economy as it happens.

“Before people can value change, they have to measure it,” said Karen Webster, CEO of PYMNTS. “Every major economic transformation eventually develops a trusted standard for understanding what’s changing and where it is going. The AI economy has lacked that standard. Over nearly 30 months, PYMNTS Intelligence has built an independent framework that consistently measures AI adoption across consumers, enterprises and public companies. The AI Predictions Market transforms those measurements into a trusted predictions market that gives businesses, investors and policymakers a transparent way to understand where AI adoption is accelerating, where it is slowing and where it is creating measurable economic value.”

Trading begins in September 2026 with more than 20 contracts spanning consumer behavior, enterprise deployment, workforce transformation, financial services, retail, healthcare and other sectors, all scheduled for a phased launch. Approximately 25 additional contracts will be introduced each quarter as the Crypto.com and PYMNTS partnership expands to measure new technologies, industries and business applications for AI.

The AI Predictions Market Contracts are powered exclusively by the AI measurement framework developed by PYMNTS Intelligence and is based on nearly 30 months of continuous measurement of AI adoption across consumers, enterprises and public companies.

The AI Predictions Market Contracts are built on three continuously refreshed measurement engines:

• Consumer Behavior (Monthly): Measures AI usage across health, education, work, commerce and everyday life through a nationally representative monthly study of 4,000 U.S. adults balanced across 180 census quotas for statistical significance.
• Enterprise Deployment (Quarterly): Measures how organizations deploy AI, including production agents, workflow automation, realized productivity gains, software replacement and business outcomes through a nationally representative study of 500 U.S. enterprises and the executives responsible for AI strategy and investment.
• Corporate and Market Disclosure (Quarterly): Measures how public companies communicate AI investment, revenue, productivity gains, workforce impacts and capital allocation through structured analysis of SEC filings, earnings materials and public disclosures, with every extraction validated through a transparent methodology.

The tradable contracts extend the value of that information by giving market participants a new way to express their views. Complete methodology, contract specifications and the settlement calendar will be published before trading opens.
