Prices are bid/ask midpoints on each exchange at the same moment, before fees. Data: Polymarket View's Kalshi comparison (CC BY 4.0), a sister site; how big the gaps get over time: price-gap study. Current availability, prices, close time, fees, and settlement wording must be verified on Kalshi directly before trading.

What a gap has to beat

A Kalshi taker order pays round up(0.07 x C x P x (1 - P)): $1.75 on 100 contracts at 50 cents, see the Kalshi fee calculator. Polymarket charges its own fee by market category. Add both spreads and the months your money sits until the event settles, and most gaps of a few points are gone. How good each exchange's prices are over time: how accurate Kalshi is.

Frequently asked questions

Why do Kalshi and Polymarket show different odds for the same event?

They are separate order books with different traders, fees and access rules, and their contracts can resolve on slightly different wording, so prices drift apart; traders who buy on one and sell on the other pull them back together.

Can you arbitrage Kalshi and Polymarket?

Only when the gap is bigger than the costs: Kalshi's taker fee, Polymarket's fee on that market, the spread on both books and the capital tied up until the event resolves. Most gaps on this page are a few points, which those costs usually wipe out.

How often is this comparison updated?

Twice a day, from the matched-event snapshot Polymarket View publishes; both prices on a row are bid/ask midpoints taken at the same moment.
