Kalshi, a prediction market exchange regulated by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, has introduced a new promotional offer for users ahead of the World Cup final between Spain and Argentina.
Announced on July 18, 2026, the promotion provides a $10 credit to new users who deposit $10 and complete $10 in trades on event contracts.
This follows an earlier campaign during the quarterfinal stage that offered a $15 bonus for a $10 trade threshold.
How Kalshi Works
Unlike traditional sportsbooks, Kalshi operates a peer-to-peer contract exchange model.
Users trade yes-or-no contracts valued between $0 and $1 based on the implied probability of real-world outcomes.
Correct predictions settle at $1, while incorrect ones return $0.
The platform is accessible to eligible residents aged 18 and older across 40 states and Washington, D. C.
However, availability is restricted in 10 states: Arizona, Illinois, Massachusetts, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Montana, Nevada, New Jersey, and Ohio.
Terms for the welcome offer require new users to complete trades within 90 days, with a 1x playthrough requirement.
