Prediction market platform brings CFTC-regulated derivatives to mainstream brokerage app
Moomoo has partnered with Kalshi to offer CFTC-regulated event contracts directly within its retail trading platform, allowing users to trade contracts tied to Federal Reserve decisions, inflation reports, elections, and sporting events. The integration marks a significant expansion of prediction markets into mainstream brokerage infrastructure.
Event contracts are exchange-listed derivatives priced between $0.01 and $1, with prices representing the market’s implied probability of an event occurring. Contracts are fully collateralized and integrated alongside Moomoo’s existing equities, options, and ETF offerings.
“Our focus is on providing investors with both access and understanding,” said Nate Palmer, president of Moomoo U.S. “Through event contracts and supporting educational resources, we’re giving users additional tools to analyze and engage with significant real-world events.”
The partnership reflects rapid growth in prediction market adoption. Combined monthly volume across Kalshi and Polymarket, the two largest U.S. prediction market platforms, reached approximately $24 billion in April 2026, up from under $5 billion in September 2025. Kalshi has emerged as the dominant U.S. prediction market platform following significant expansion in popularity after the 2024 U.S. election.
Moomoo joins a growing list of brokerages integrating Kalshi contracts. The platform has recently expanded its broader feature set, introducing direct crypto deposits and withdrawals and launching moomoo API Skills for AI-powered investing tools.
The integration signals institutional acceptance of event contracts as a retail trading instrument. Unlike traditional prediction markets that operate on decentralized networks, Kalshi’s contracts trade on regulated U.S. exchanges under CFTC oversight, addressing regulatory concerns that previously limited mainstream adoption.
Moomoo did not specify which users qualify for access to event contracts or detail any eligibility restrictions. The company also did not disclose the financial terms of the partnership or provide trading volume figures specific to the integration.
