The safeguards will be applicable for traders aged between 18 and 20 years, Kalshi said on Tuesday. The category of traders will start with a $2,500 monthly deposit limit, creating a prevention to massive losses that can be incurred on the platform
Kalshi will alert new traders with balances exceeding $1,000 who allocate more than 25% of their funds to a single trade, encouraging them to diversify. While prediction market platforms such as Kalshi and Polymarket have gained popularity by enabling users to wager on outcomes ranging from sports and elections to military operations, they have drawn criticism from those who argue the platforms resemble gambling and carry addiction risk
"Like the stock exchange, Kalshi is available only to traders 18 and older," Luana Lopes Lara, chief operating officer and co-founder of Kalshi, said, adding that new traders need more education and safeguards.
The company also announced new partnerships with parent and youth safety organizations — Parent ProTech and ConnectSafely — to publish parent's guides to prediction markets.
