We encourage readers to go through this entire report and draw their own conclusion
based on the data we have collected. That said, some key findings & highlights include:


DFS players = millennials (and essentially all males).
Most DFS players also participate in season-long fantasy and many play in more than one
league / sport. However, nearly half of all survey participants said they’ve significantly
reduced their season-long fantasy activity (after they started playing DFS).
The most common reason cited among participants who said they do not play DFS was
“too intimidating / time consuming”.
Most DFS users have been active for under 2-years and would consider themselves
“intermediate” players. Most users first heard about DFS though a “friend / referral”.
A majority of DFS users said the “deposit bonus” did not have a major impact on their
decision to create an account.
Our survey participants said their favorite DFS site (where they spend most time / money)
was DraftKings. DraftKings also received the highest Net Promoter Score at 21.
Over half of our survey participants said they do not play on any other site besides FanDuel
& DraftKings; the most popular #3 site among our participants was a tie between Victiv and
Fantasy Aces.
Our survey indicates most DFS players spend 10-20 hours a week on research and
RotoGrinders is their preferred site (by a wide margin).

Most survey participants said their average total entry fees on a weekly basis was $100 or
less. Most participants said $5 or less was their preferred price point for a GPP.
Our survey results indicate that roughly 70% of players are not generating a positive ROI
from DFS. Nonetheless, most survey participants said they “love it and would never quit”
and the industry as a whole received a Net Promoter Score of 46. “It makes watching sports
more fun /engaging” was the most often cited reason for what users love about DFS, while
“rake structure” and “unlimited GPP entries” was the most frequently cited response for
what users hate about DFS.
Approximately 48% of our survey participants said they used to play real-money online
poker, but roughly 98% said they would not substantially limit their DFS playing time if realmoney poker was legal & readily available in their state.
Approximately 66% of our survey participants believe DFS is a legal alternative to sports
betting, but 94% said they would not significantly reduce their DFS playing time if sports
betting was legal & readily available in their state.
Approximately 60% of our survey participants do not visit Las Vegas even once (during an
average year). Roughly 45% of our participants said when they visit Las Vegas they
typically spend more on food / entertainment versus gambling.
Favorite form of gambling at a casino among survey participants was as follows (ranked
highest to lowest): Sports Betting, Blackjack, Poker, Craps, Roulette, Slots, and Baccarat.

Our survey results indicate that the ROI for most DFS players is between “Breakeven and +20%”. If we assume that
most participants who selected “breakeven to +20%” were likely just breakeven (its human nature to round higher when
it comes to investing or wagering and in reality most players are doing worse than they imagine) that would imply that
70% of players are not generating a positive return from DFS. This is consistent with our own due diligence and
tournament payout structures at many DFS sites.

who will keep buying and refering others, fueling
growth.
• Passives (score 7-8) are satisfied but
unenthusiastic customers who are vulnerable to
competitive offerings.
• Detractors (score 0-6) are unhappy customers
who can damage your brand and impede growth
through negative word-of-mouth.
