- Kalshi offers cricket prediction markets as Yes/No event contracts priced between $0.01 and $0.99, with winning shares paying out $1.00, making share prices reflective of the market-predicted probability.
- New users using referral code CBSSPORTS receive a $25 trading bonus after placing $25+ in trades within 30 days of opening an account, with at least one promo-code comparison noting Kalshi's 30-day window is longer than competitors' 7-day windows.
- The $25 bonus expires seven days after issuance, cannot be withdrawn, and must be fully used on prediction market trades before any profit can be withdrawn by the participant.
- Kalshi is not available in AR, AZ, IL, LA, MA, MD, MI, MN, MT, NJ, NV, OH, or WA, and the full new-user offer excludes AR, AZ, IL, LA, MA, MD, MI, MN, MT, NJ, NV, OH, and WA.
- The featured match — Bangladesh vs. China women's T20 International at 8:00 p.m. ET on September 16, a 2026 Asian Games knockout — has Bangladesh priced at $0.97 per contract versus Sri Lanka at $0.03, with over $23,000 already traded on the market.
- Kalshi provides responsible trading tools including one-day-or-longer trading breaks, voluntary self-exclusion, and personalized monthly funding caps adjustable by the user.
Why it matters: Prediction-market exchanges are racing to capture U.S. sports-betting dollars, and Kalshi is using cricket's global audience to differentiate; the $25 bonus with a 30-day trade window is structured to lower the barrier for first-timers while the 7-day expiry on bonus credits and full-use-before-withdrawal rule limit downside for the platform.
