Summary

  • $55 is the bonus Kalshi is offering new users who complete $25 in trades with promo code CBSSPORTS55 for Saturday's college football slate.
  • The promotion is tied to sports event contracts on marquee games including Georgia-Alabama, USC-Penn State and Texas-Oklahoma, where users can trade win markets and game-total contracts.
  • Kalshi priced Alabama at $0.54 against Georgia, Texas at $0.755 against Oklahoma and Penn State at $0.525 against USC, signaling near-even odds in the latter matchup.
  • The offer is available to new users 18 and older in most U.S. states, though sports contracts are unavailable in Michigan, Nevada and Washington.
  • The push comes as operators across Week 6 college football roll out competing sign-up incentives, extending the promotional fight beyond traditional sportsbooks into regulated prediction markets.
