Sports promotions
A separate flow where a public event activates a customer promise.
Sports Promotion Lab uses an event contract to help fund a customer offer triggered by that same event.
The operator chooses a team, game or promotional intent, authors the offer and sets its maximum promise before the matching market locks. The finished view shows both business outcomes: if the event occurs, the customer offer activates and the selected market pays toward that obligation; if the event does not occur, the offer stays quiet and the position settles according to its terms.
Isolation rule
Sports stay isolated. Although the market generation can contain ordinary contracts, multivariate non-Sports contracts and Sports-only contracts, the ordinary analyst admits only non-Sports multivariate scope. A single-game Sports contract enters only for an explicit promotion exposure, preventing a team result from becoming accidental business-risk protection.
Uncurated Sports contracts stay outside ordinary business-risk discovery. They enter only through the promotion product or an explicit promotion-risk request.
For a team-named promotion, candidate selection stays with that team. A game inside the requested window can become a position candidate; season or championship contracts outside it appear only as planning signals. When the named team has no suitable event, the product does not substitute an unrelated generic promotion market.
Worked example: p901
Broad Street Taproom promises a free round if Philadelphia wins Thursday night and states an $8,000 maximum obligation. The trigger matches. Philadelphia YES settles on that game. Timing rules out the 90-win season contract and championship contract because both settle too late for the one-night promise.
At 59 cents, 8,000 advisory contracts cost $4,720 and can return $8,000 gross if Philadelphia wins. Both worlds matter. If Philadelphia does not win, the promotion stays quiet and the market position settles under its own terms.
The promotion brief is an operational decision artifact. It should state the event, offer, cap, backing relationship and any game-rule caveat needed to run the promotion.
