Kalshi, a prediction market platform, is offering new users a promotional bonus that allows them to trade $25 and receive $25. This offer is specifically tied to the National League Most Valuable Player (MVP) race. To qualify for the bonus, new users must sign up using the promo code NYPMAX, verify their account, and execute a minimum of $25 in trades.
The platform allows users to trade contracts based on various events, including sports markets such as golf, WNBA, MLB, international soccer, and NFL. The current focus of the promotion is on the National League MVP race, where the competition is heating up between two prominent players.
