Entity formation and consulting engagement builds on Company’s strategy to expand capabilities supporting its ROLR™ prediction markets platform
LAS VEGAS, Nevada, Nov. 11, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- High Roller Technologies, Inc. (“High Roller” or the “Company”) (NYSE: ROLR), an online gaming and prediction markets company, today announced that it has created a separate legal entity, ROLR FCM LLC, in connection with its interest in seeking registration as a Futures Commission Merchant (“FCM”) with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC”). ROLR FCM LLC has entered into a discovery agreement with Connamara Technologies, Inc. (“Connamara”) to assess the operating model and technology requirements for a potential FCM focused on event contracts.
“Forming ROLR FCM LLC is an important step toward building the capabilities we believe can support ROLR’s long-term growth,” said Seth Young, Chief Executive Officer of High Roller. “Our existing structure has provided a foundation for entering the U.S. prediction markets industry. The formation of ROLR FCM LLC and our engagement with Connamara reflects our interest in thoughtfully exploring additional regulated capabilities that could support responsible growth, strengthen the customer experience and provide greater flexibility as the business evolves.”
Strategic Overview
High Roller views a potential FCM structure as an opportunity to gain greater control over customer account servicing and related brokerage operations, while providing additional flexibility as the Company develops its prediction markets offering. Pursuing FCM registration requires substantial preparation and the satisfaction of applicable capital, customer-fund protection, risk management, supervisory and other regulatory requirements.
“Our focus is on pursuing opportunities that can support the responsible expansion of the ROLR platform beyond our current role as a guaranteed introducing broker,” added Young. “These steps allow us to explore this potential structure and new partnerships while carefully considering the operational and regulatory responsibilities involved.”
The discovery work with Connamara will examine customer onboarding, customer-fund segregation, margin and risk management, connectivity to clearing organizations and exchanges, and regulatory recordkeeping and reporting. ROLR FCM LLC will have access to a demonstration environment to evaluate Connamara’s EP3 exchange technology internally. Connamara will document its findings and recommendations, including prioritized requirements, integration needs, potential gaps and a preliminary implementation roadmap.
Regulatory Status
ROLR FCM LLC has not filed an application with the National Futures Association (“NFA”) for FCM registration. It is not registered with the CFTC as an FCM, is not an NFA member and is not authorized to operate as an FCM.
