Kalshi Offers $25 Bonus for $25 NFL Preseason Trades With ALCOM Code

3 articles · Updated · AL.com · Aug 14

Summary

  • $25 in bonus credit is available to new Kalshi users who register with code ALCOM and trade $25 within 30 days during NFL preseason Week 1.
  • Three preseason games start at 6 p.m. CT Friday—Broncos-Falcons, Buccaneers-Jets and Dolphins-Commanders—with prediction markets already live across each matchup.
  • Kalshi said the bonus is limited to first-time users age 18 or older, expires seven days after issuance and is unavailable in nine states including Arizona, Illinois and New Jersey.
  • Contracts trade from $0.01 to $0.99 and settle at $1 if correct, with prices doubling as implied probabilities—such as Atlanta at $0.32, or 32%, against Denver.
  • The promotion comes ahead of the Sept. 9 NFL regular-season opener as Kalshi pushes its federally regulated event-contract platform as a broader alternative to state-restricted sportsbooks.
