PrizePicks vs DraftKings
DraftKings has two products to compare. DK Pick6 is its pick'em game and the closest match: PrizePicks publishes set multipliers of 3x to 37.5x on a Power Play, while Pick6 pays a Base Payout plus Extra Winnings that depend on how other entries do. DraftKings Sportsbook prices each bet: two bets at -110 pay 3.64x, against 3x for a 2-pick Power Play.
The catch is where you are. PrizePicks lists Player Picks in 17 states where DraftKings Sportsbook isn't live, including California, Texas, Florida and Georgia. PickFinder, which publishes this page, shows PrizePicks, Pick6 and the Sportsbook on the same row, so you can compare them on any prop.

PrizePicks and DraftKings, side by side
Payouts can vary by state and by the app's current offer, and they change over time. The payout on your lineup's details screen is the one that counts.
PrizePicks lineup vs a DraftKings parlay
What the same number of correct picks pays at a price of -110 per leg.
-110 is an example price: sportsbook props are priced player by player, and same-game parlays are priced differently. A 2-pick Power Play pays the same as -137 per leg, so a book charging more than that for the same side pays less than PrizePicks.
Where DraftKings is better
Sportsbook prices
Where it's live, a parlay at -110 per leg needs 52.38% per leg. A 2-pick Power Play needs 57.74% per pick.
Room to win more in Pick6
DraftKings' example shows a 4 for 4 entry with a 10x Base Payout and 8x in Extra Winnings, for 18x. Extra Winnings aren't guaranteed.
More bet types
A sportsbook also has game lines and single bets, not only lineups of player stats.
Where PrizePicks is better
You know the payout up front
The multiplier is set before you submit. A Pick6 result can move with how other entries do.
Flex and reverts
A Flex Play pays through 1 or 2 misses, and a DNP drops the lineup a level instead of ending it.
