Kalshi Offers $55 Bonus for New Users After $25 in NFL Trades

3 articles · Updated · CBS Sports · Sep 20

Summary

  • $55 in bonus credits is available to new Kalshi users who enter promo code CBSSPORTS55 and complete $25 in trades on NFL prediction markets.
  • 30 days to meet that $25 threshold sets the offer apart from rival promotions that expire after seven days, giving users more time to trade through Week 2 markets.
  • Week 2 contracts highlighted include Bears by more than 5 points at $0.49, Broncos by more than 3 at $0.53, and Chiefs by more than 7 at $0.51.
  • Kalshi tied the promotion to current NFL storylines, including Chris Olave and Joe Burrow being active, while stressing CFTC regulation and risk tools such as trading breaks and funding limits.
