Kalshi Ads Promote $55 Bonus for New Users

Kalshi promotional articles published around the October 6 MLB playoff games advertised a fixed $55 trading bonus for eligible new users who deposited $25 and completed $25 in trades within seven days. The promotion was presented as providing $80 in total trading funds, including the deposit, though the reports do not independently verify the offer’s availability or whether bonuses were credited. The articles named several codes for the same advertised reward. Three listed SYRACUSE, MASSLIVE1, OREGONLIVE55, CLEVELAND55 and SILIVE55; another listed AL55, MLIVE55, NJCOM55 and PENNLIVE55. The differing lists leave unclear which codes were active and eligible on October 6. The promotional material said users must enter a code during registration, be new Kalshi customers and reside in an eligible jurisdiction. Availability and other restrictions are governed by Kalshi’s terms. The offer was tied in the promotions to two National League Division Series Game 3 matchups scheduled for October 6: the Los Angeles Dodgers against the Atlanta Braves and the Milwaukee Brewers against the San Diego Padres.
