X Integrates Polymarket to Let Users Bet on Real-World Events
Elon Musk's social media platform X has entered into a partnership with Polymarket, a cryptocurrency-based prediction market, enabling users to place bets on future events directly through the platform. This collaboration aims to integrate Polymarket's forecasting capabilities with X's user interface, allowing for real-time betting on topics ranging from political elections to economic indicators. Polymarket, established in 2020, operates as a decentralized platform where users can wager on the outcomes of various events using cryptocurrency. The platform utilizes blockchain technology to ensure transparency and security in transactions. By partnering with X, Polymarket seeks to broaden its user base and bring prediction markets into mainstream social media usage. Shayne Coplan, CEO of Polymarket, emphasized the significance of this partnership, stating that it represents a convergence of two platforms committed to truth-seeking and transparency. He highlighted that the integration would provide users with a more interactive and informed experience when engaging with current events on X. ADVERTISEMENT The collaboration is set to introduce features that allow users to participate in prediction markets seamlessly within the X platform. This includes the ability to place bets on live events, access real-time data, and receive AI-generated insights to inform their decisions. The integration is designed to enhance user engagement by combining social media interaction with financial incentives tied to real-world outcomes. Elon Musk has previously expressed interest in the predictive power of markets like Polymarket, suggesting that they can offer more accurate insights than traditional polling methods. By incorporating such a platform into X, Musk aims to provide users with tools that reflect collective intelligence and market-based forecasting. The partnership also aligns with Musk's broader vision of transforming X into a multifaceted platform that extends beyond traditional social media functionalities. By integrating financial services, content creation tools, and now prediction markets, X is positioning itself as a comprehensive digital ecosystem. While the integration promises to offer users new ways to engage with content and events, it also raises questions about regulatory compliance and the potential for market manipulation. Polymarket has faced scrutiny in the past, including a $1.4 million fine from the Commodity Futures Trading Commission in 2022 for operating an unregistered derivatives trading platform. The company has since taken steps to restrict access for U.S. users and ensure compliance with relevant regulations. As the partnership unfolds, both X and Polymarket will need to navigate the complex landscape of financial regulations, user privacy concerns, and the ethical implications of integrating betting mechanisms into social media. The success of this collaboration will depend on their ability to balance innovation with responsibility, ensuring that users can engage with prediction markets in a secure and informed manner. The integration is expected to roll out in phases, with initial features becoming available to select users before a broader launch. Both companies have indicated that they will provide updates on the progress of the integration and any new features that become available.

UAE shoppers want 1-click, biometric checkouts for safer online payments: Visa
Consumers across the UAE are calling for more secure and seamless online shopping experiences, according to Visa's latest Checkout Friction Report. Despite the rapid growth of ecommerce and digital adoption in the region, key challenges at the checkout stage continue to hinder consumer satisfaction and business performance. Based on a survey of more than 2,000 online shoppers across the GCC, the report shows that security concerns and complex payment steps are the top barriers to smooth transactions. Online shopping in the UAE In the UAE, 40 per cent of shoppers cite fear of fraud as their biggest concern, while 37 per cent are frustrated by the need to repeatedly enter card details. Shopping frequency is high, with one in three UAE consumers buying groceries online multiple times a week, and categories like fashion, entertainment, and electronics seeing regular purchases monthly. However, friction during checkout can lead to abandoned carts and lost revenue for retailers. Visa's research underscores a growing preference for advanced payment technologies. A significant 67 per cent of UAE shoppers said they would adopt biometric authentication like fingerprint or face ID to check out online. Additionally, 65 per cent support a unified registration process for digital payments across websites. The report also highlights that 82 per cent of consumers would shop online more frequently if one-click checkout options were widely available, and 66 per cent are likely to use Visa's 'Click to Pay with Biometrics' feature. This solution simplifies online shopping by eliminating manual card entry, using secure device-based biometric authentication to speed up and protect the transaction process. Salima Gutieva, Visa's VP and Country Manager for UAE, said: 'Challenges in the online checkout process have direct implications for businesses, resulting in lost revenue, and hampering both customer acquisition and retention. 'Today's consumers expect – and deserve – a more seamless and secure eCommerce experience. That's why Visa is working with partners to enable solutions like Click to Pay, which leverages biometrics and tokenisation to eliminate key pain points and deliver a more convenient shopping experience.

Abu Dhabi-owned Manchester City open retail store at Dubai Mall
Are you a fan of Abu Dhabi-owned English Premier League side Manchester City and want to get your hands on some cool club merchandise, but live in Dubai? Fret not. The 10-time Premier League champions have opened a new store at the Dubai Mall. It marks the second retail store of the 2022-23 Champions League winners after Yas Mall in the UAE capital Abu Dhabi. The outlet at Dubai Mall also joins flagship stores Manchester City Stadium Store and Arndale City store in the city of Manchester, England, as well as pop-ups in New York City and Seoul. Fans of the club, kitted by German manufacturer Puma, will have access to merchandise as well as some memorabilia collections. The store at Dubai Mall introduces an updated version of the brand's award-winning 'Field of Play' concept, designed to reflect stadium and fan culture. The Dubai location features elements such as locker-style zones and visuals from iconic Manchester City matches. City, who won four successive Premier League titles in 2020–21, 2021–22, 2022–23 and 2023–24, didn't quite have the season according to the high benchmarks that they set. Nonetheless, The Sky Blues, managed by former FC Barcelona and Bayern Munich tactician Pep Guardiola, finished third in the League behind perennial rivals champions Liverpool and Arsenal.
