Digital trading platform Moomoo announced Thursday that it has partnered with prediction market operator Kalshi to offer CFTC-regulated event contracts to eligible users, allowing them to trade the outcomes of major economic, political and cultural events directly through the brokerage platform.
The offering gives users access to contracts tied to events such as Federal Reserve decisions on interest rates, the release of inflation data, elections and the 2026 FIFA World Cup, the New York-based company said in a press release.
Event contracts are publicly traded derivatives that allow traders to take a position on whether or not a specific outcome will occur. Prices range from $0.01 to $1 and represent the market-implied probability of an event occurring. The contracts are fully guaranteed and integrated with Moomoo’s existing stock, options and exchange-traded fund (ETF) offerings.
Prediction markets have exploded in popularity since the 2024 US election, moving from a niche forecasting tool to a rapidly growing segment of the retail market.
Platforms such as Kalshi and Polymarket have expanded beyond politics to sports, macroeconomic data and cultural events, attracting billions of dollars in trading volume. Combined monthly volume on the two largest platforms increased from less than $5 billion in September 2025 to around $24 billion in April 2026, highlighting investors’ growing appetite for event-driven markets.
“Our goal is to provide investors with both access and understanding,” Nate Palmer, president of Moomoo US, said in emailed comments. “Through event contracts and complementary educational resources, we give users additional tools to analyze and interact with important real-world events.
Kalshi, which has become the dominant prediction market platform in the United States, said the partnership would expand access to event-based trading.
This launch comes as interest in prediction markets continues to grow. By integrating Kalshi’s contracts, Moomoo joins a growing list of brokerages offering retail investors exposure to event-driven markets.
The partnership also expands the Moomoo product ecosystem. The company recently introduced direct cryptocurrency deposits and withdrawals and launched Moomoo API Skills, a feature designed to support AI-powered investment tools.
