Are prediction markets legal in Texas?

Prediction markets are currently available to Texas residents on the major CFTC-regulated platforms, though the legal picture nationally is still moving.

As of our last review, Kalshi operates in Texas as a CFTC-regulated exchange. Texas has not moved to block CFTC-regulated event contracts the way some states have. Availability can change quickly — we re-check this page on any regulatory movement.

Polymarket is accessible to eligible US users following its return through a CFTC-licensed entity. Confirm current availability in-app before funding.
