Current Prediction Market Promotions

Prediction market platforms offer signup bonuses and promotions to attract new traders. Below are the current offers as of April 2026. We update this page monthly — bookmark it and check back before signing up.

Offers subject to change. Terms and conditions apply. Check each platform directly for current promotions.

Kalshi

Kalshi does not currently offer a traditional signup bonus or promo code. However, the barrier to entry is low:

• Minimum deposit: $1
• No commissions on losing contracts (you only pay up to 2% on winning contracts)
• Free deposits via bank transfer or debit card

Kalshi occasionally runs promotions for specific events (elections, major economic releases). Follow @Kalshi on X/Twitter for limited-time offers.

Polymarket’s referral program rewards existing users who bring in new traders. As a new user, you can:

• Zero trading fees — no commissions on any trade
• No minimum deposit — deposit any amount of USDC
• Referral bonuses — ask the person who referred you for their link

Note: Polymarket requires USDC (a cryptocurrency stablecoin) for deposits. You will need to purchase USDC from an exchange like Coinbase or Kraken first.

DraftKings Predictions

DraftKings offers state-specific welcome bonuses for new accounts. These change frequently and vary by location. Common offers include:

• Deposit match — DraftKings matches a percentage of your first deposit
• Free contracts — Receive free event contracts to try the platform
• Risk-free first trade — Your first losing trade refunded (up to a limit)

Robinhood Predictions

Robinhood does not offer prediction market-specific promo codes. However, new Robinhood accounts receive:

• Free stock reward — Valued between $5 and $200 (random selection)
• 1% deposit bonus — On qualifying transfers during promotional periods

Since event contracts are integrated into the main Robinhood app, any general Robinhood promotion applies to your prediction market trading as well.

Tips for Maximizing Your Signup Value

1. Sign up for multiple platforms. Each platform has different markets and different promotions. Having accounts on Kalshi, Polymarket, and DraftKings gives you the best odds across all markets.

2. Check state availability first. Not all platforms are available in every US state. DraftKings availability depends on your state’s event contract regulations.

3. Start small. Prediction market platforms have low minimums ($1 on Kalshi). Start with a small amount to learn the mechanics before committing more capital.

4. Watch for event-specific promotions. Platforms often run promotions tied to major events (elections, World Cup, Super Bowl). These can be more valuable than standard signup offers.

5. Read the terms. Welcome bonuses typically have wagering requirements or minimum deposit thresholds. Read the fine print before depositing.
