JERSEY CITY, N.J., June 04, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Moomoo Financial Inc. (“moomoo”), a leading global investment and trading platform that empowers self-directed investors with advanced market data and professional-grade tools, today announced its partnership with Kalshi, the world’s largest prediction market, to launch regulated event contracts, expanding access for eligible users to trade on the outcomes of major economic, political, and cultural events through a CFTC-regulated exchange.1
The new offering enables eligible users to buy and sell event contracts tied to real-world outcomes, including Federal Reserve decisions, inflation data releases, elections, and major global sporting events such as the 2026 World Cup. Event contracts are exchange-listed derivatives that allow participants to take positions on the outcome of specific events. Contract prices, ranging from $0.01 to $1.00, reflect the market-implied probability of the event occurring.
The contracts are fully collateralized and integrated directly into moomoo’s trading platform alongside equities, options, ETFs, and other investment products2, enabling users to access event-driven markets within a familiar brokerage experience.
“Our users are increasingly engaging with markets around major macroeconomic and news-driven events,” said Nate Palmer, President of moomoo U.S. “Event contracts through Kalshi provide a more direct and transparent way for eligible users to express views on those developments within a regulated market structure.”
“Prediction markets are built from the wisdom of the crowd,” said Valeria Vouterakou, Counsel at Kalshi. “Integrating with moomoo to expand investor access will make the crowd even bigger, and help Kalshi continue dominating in our effort to become the global liquidity layer for prediction markets.”
A Growing Market for Event-Driven Investing
Interest in event-driven markets has grown in recent years as investors seek additional ways to participate around key economic releases, monetary policy decisions, elections, and other significant developments that influence financial markets. By integrating event contracts into its platform, moomoo continues to expand access to emerging market products.
“Over the last decade, retail investing has become significantly more accessible through advances in technology and market access,” Palmer added. “The addition of event contracts to moomoo represents another step in the evolution of modern retail trading by giving investors new ways to participate in markets tied to real-world events.”
Key Features of moomoo’s Event Contracts Offering:
- Fully collateralized with defined risk characteristics
- Transparent pricing designed for accessibility and retail participation
- Seamless integration within moomoo’s existing trading platform and tools
Expanding the Product Ecosystem
The launch further strengthens moomoo’s evolving product ecosystem and reflects the company’s broader vision of delivering modern, market access across emerging financial products and asset classes. The company just introduced a new Direct Crypto Deposit and Withdraw functionality to its platform, enabling users to transfer cryptocurrencies directly between their external Web3 wallets and moomoo accounts3, and recently rolled out Moomoo API Skills, a feature that makes agentic investing possible for users.4 As its product ecosystem expands, moomoo continues to prioritize tools that simplify investing and make professional-grade tools more accessible to everyday investors.
