Axcera and Plaee partner to bring Prediction Market trading to Prop Firms
Dubai based prop trading technology provider Axcera and Israel based Plaee, a prediction-native, turnkey technology provider serving prediction market operators, iGaming brands, and trading platforms, have announced a strategic partnership. Axcera has integrated Plaee’s SimTrader, enabling prop firms and brokers using Axcera to offer simulated prediction market trading to their traders.
Axcera-Plaee partnership
The strategic partnership is designed to give Axcera operators the fastest route to offer simulated prediction markets without requiring them to build and operate a new technology environment.
The two companies said they are working together to build the industry’s leading simulated prediction market product for prop trading firms globally. Traders will be able to trade YES/NO event contracts with simulated capital across thousands of markets, including short-dated questions on equities, crypto, FX, rates and commodities, with real-time pricing that mirrors live markets. Because the product runs on simulated capital, it fits the evaluation and challenge model prop firms already operate, without requiring firms to build an exchange or take on the profile of a real-money venue.
Herman Shaho, Axcera Co-Founder said,
“Prediction markets are becoming increasingly relevant to trading operators, but adding another asset class can introduce significant operational and technology complexity. By connecting Plaee’s prediction-market infrastructure with Axcera, firms can introduce the category while continuing to manage trader operations, risk, and payouts through the infrastructure they already use.”
For prop firms, the integration offers a new, exciting asset class and a new revenue line. Always-on markets keep traders active between challenges and resets, while firms can monetize a new asset class through their existing branded programs. Firms on Axcera’s platform will be able to launch a branded user experience in weeks, supported by Plaee’s tech stack.
Leon Okun, co-founder & CEO of Plaee said,
“Plaee is building the world’s most complete prediction market infrastructure, and today we’re proud to bring Simulated Prediction Markets to the Prop Trading industry, together with Axcera. Axcera already provides the operational foundation used by prop firms to manage their traders and businesses. Our partnership builds on this foundation to give Prop Trading firms a turnkey solution that removes the hurdles of product development and time to market.”
Prediction Markets growth
The partnership comes as participation in prediction markets expands across both retail and institutional trading. Combined trading volume across Kalshi and Polymarket exceeded $40 billion in 2025, compared with roughly $9 billion in 2024, according to KPMG.
Institutional interest is also increasing. Acuiti’s Q2 2026 research found that 13% of proprietary trading firms were already active in prediction markets, with another 31% considering participation. Across institutional derivatives participants more broadly, 9% were active and 35% were considering entry.
Axcera provides the operational infrastructure behind multi-asset prop trading businesses, including trader and account management, challenge and payout workflows, onboarding and KYC, real-time risk monitoring, reporting, payments, affiliate management, and automation. Axcera-powered firms have onboarded more than 2 million traders and process more than 250,000 new trading accounts per month. The platform supports more than 100 integrations across trading platforms, payments, KYC, marketing, and other operational systems.
Plaee’s simulated prediction-market infrastructure “SimTrader” provides operators with access to thousands of event markets, white-label web and mobile interfaces, API and iFrame integration options, and tools for promotions, rewards, tournaments and personalization. Plaee also supports different market-access models for U.S. and global deployments.
The companies added that they will also collaborate on market education, industry events and joint content around the adoption of prediction markets within proprietary trading and brokerage businesses.
