Polymarket Partners With Paribu to Enter Turkey

Under the integration, Paribu users can access Polymarket directly through the exchange’s DeFi section without signing up for a separate account or connecting an external wallet.

As per its official press release, once users create a self-custodial wallet within Paribu, they can browse and trade available prediction market contracts from the app itself. All trades are executed and settled on-chain, while users retain full control over their assets.

With the integration now live, Paribu users have already begun accessing prediction markets covering topics. The contracts range from Bitcoin’s price and U.S. Federal Reserve interest-rate decisions to major geopolitical developments such as Strait of Hormuz conflict.

The launch marks Polymarket’s latest international expansion even though it is facing CFTC probe for fake bets in the United States.

It also comes as it continues to face new competition such as Meta announcing its own prediction market app development.

Why is Polymarket Expanding in Turkey

For Polymarket, Turkey could represent one of the world’s fastest-growing digital asset markets.

Paribu serves around 7 million users, lists more than 220 cryptocurrencies, and has recorded daily spot trading volumes exceeding $100 million. This make Paribu one of Turkey’s largest crypto exchanges.

The company says

Polymarket’s expansion also comes at a time when Türkiye has emerged as one of the world’s most active crypto markets. According to Chainalysis, the country processed nearly $200 billion in cryptocurrency transactions in 2025. The adoption has been fueled by persistent inflation and the weakening Turkish lira

The expansion also reflects Polymarket’s broader international strategy of partnering with established exchanges instead of relying solely on its standalone platform. Thus, by integrating into Paribu’s existing infrastructure, Polymarket gains immediate access to millions of users in a new market.
