New users on the Polymarket platform can receive a $50 bonus when they sign up with the promo code NYPMAX and make an initial deposit of $20. This offer is specifically tied to betting markets for the World Cup Golden Ball, awarded to the tournament's best player.
Lionel Messi is currently favored to win the Golden Ball, with Polymarket pricing him as a 90 percent favorite even before the World Cup Final. This market prediction reflects his performance throughout the tournament, including eight goals and four assists. If Messi secures the award, it would mark his second consecutive Golden Ball win, a feat not achieved before.
Spain's captain, Rodri, is positioned as a distant second in the betting market. His strongest chance for individual recognition may come in the form of the Silver Ball if Spain wins the tournament.
