Polymarket Integration into Rainbow: A New Step in the World of Crypto Predictions

Recently, the mobile wallet Rainbow announced its integration with the prediction platform Polymarket, following a similar move by MetaMask. This news makes betting on real-world events, such as sports matches, political events, or economic trends, even simpler directly from the mobile app.

Details of Rainbow's Integration with Polymarket

On December 23, 2025, the Rainbow team announced an update to the iOS app, where Polymarket's prediction markets became available to all users. Users can browse markets, place bets, and predict the future right within the Rainbow interface. To get started, simply update the app in the App Store. Android support is expected in the coming days.

According to users and initial feedback, Rainbow's interface appears more convenient and understandable compared to the integration in MetaMask. For example, the design with bright colors and intuitive navigation simplifies the trading process. Importantly, all transactions on Polymarket are saved in both wallets if you use them in parallel. If you're already using Rainbow, it's worth trying a few trades to evaluate the convenience.

Polymarket, built on the Polygon base, allows users to bet on real events using the USDC cryptocurrency. The platform gained popularity during the 2024 US elections, when trading volumes reached billions of dollars. Integration with wallets like Rainbow lowers entry barriers, allowing trading without switching between apps.

Comparison with MetaMask

MetaMask integrated Polymarket earlier, on December 4, 2025, becoming the first self-custodial wallet with access to prediction markets. Users can trade directly in the mobile app, including bets on NFL, NBA, and other sports events. However, based on reviews, Rainbow's convenience is higher thanks to better UI/UX. This makes Rainbow more attractive for mobile users seeking simplicity.

Impact on the Market and Users

This integration makes gambling bets even more accessible, which can be both an advantage and a challenge for players. On one hand, the low entry threshold attracts new users; on the other, it increases the risks of addiction. Polymarket already has markets for sports events, such as NFL matches (for example, Kansas City Chiefs vs. Houston Texans), where bets add adrenaline to watching.

According to data, trading volumes on Polymarket continue to grow, and integrations with popular wallets like Rainbow and MetaMask could push it to new heights. Users note the speed of implementation: Rainbow released a test version almost immediately after the announcement, and it works flawlessly.

If you're interested in crypto predictions, update Rainbow and give it a try. But remember: trading on prediction markets is a risk, and always bet responsibly.
