What Happens If a Prediction Market Is Canceled or Disputed?
Last updated: 10/08/2026 05:59:00
A corresponding Polymarket market may be canceled, placed under review, or subject to a result dispute under its applicable rules instead of proceeding directly to settlement.
If this happens, review the latest status displayed through Predictions and the corresponding Polymarket market rules. KuCoin does not independently determine whether a market is canceled or how a disputed result is resolved. A preliminary result, unofficial report, or earlier market price is not the final outcome.
Canceled and disputed markets
A canceled market does not follow the ordinary resolution path for selecting a winning outcome. Do not treat cancellation as though one outcome simply lost.
If a result is under review or disputed, the corresponding Polymarket market has not reached a final result. Settlement may remain pending until the applicable process is complete.
The status and handling of each scenario depend on the rules of the affected Polymarket market and the final status displayed in Predictions.
What happens to orders, positions, and funds
The treatment of submitted orders, partial fills, executed positions, fees, and funds depends on the confirmed handling of the corresponding Polymarket market.
Submitted Predictions orders cannot be canceled. Do not assume that an order will be reversed or that funds will be returned on a particular schedule. Review the affected market and your records under Predictions > Assets for the confirmed status and any applicable proceeds.
Do not place a replacement order or take other action based only on an unofficial result while the market remains under review.
What you should do
1.Open the affected market and review its latest status.
2.Read the market's resolution and exception rules.
3.Check your order, position, and settlement records under Predictions > Assets.
4.Monitor official KuCoin notices for confirmed handling or service updates.
5.After processing is complete, check your Funding Account for any applicable credit.
Contact KuCoin Support if your record does not match the confirmed handling shown in the product or an official notice. Provide your UID, market name, relevant order ID, time and time zone, App version, displayed status or error message, and a screenshot with sensitive information removed.
