APY on Kalshi

At Kalshi, we're committed to providing the best possible trading experience. That's why we're excited to introduce interest accrual on your cash and open positions. This means that you will also earn interest on the underlying collateral for your positions. In other words, even before a market is resolved, your positions can earn a return.

Why is this awesome for Kalshi users?

• Take longer positions: Interest accrual allows you to hold your positions for a longer period without worrying about running out of funds.

• Get paid while you hold: Watch your account balance grow as your positions accrue interest.

• Maximize your returns: Combine the potential profits from your trades with the interest earned on your account balance!

Interest Rates and Payments

The interest rate is set at 3.75% and will apply to all eligible accounts. This interest rate is variable and can change at any time.

Interest is normally paid within the first week of the following month but can take up to 10 business days to process. Kalshi passes on the interest they receive from the FDIC-insured account that user funds are stored in and waits for these payments from the bank to pay interest!

Interest Calculation

• Interest is paid monthly, but accrual is calculated daily.

• The daily accrual is based on the net value of the portfolio at the close of the exchange each day.

How do you determine the net value of the portfolio?

• Available funds in the account.

• Your portfolio value at the end of the day, based on last traded prices

Eligibility

• Interest accrual is available exclusively for users who have made deposits through Kalshi Klear.

• Interest rates are subject to change at any time and are only paid to people with balances of $250 or more.
