I had to put a 5 star review so it would be seen but the stars overall don’t reflect my review. The app overall seems great from an outstanding view but my issue is this… I’ve applied, meet the requirements, and reached out to support about my application. I have gotten multiple useless responses from the AI support system saying a team member will be with mewithin the hour, I receive no response after that, I also receive no message from a team member. I get responses in email but they tellme that I couldn’t be accepted, which I already knew. I would just like to receive information on why, how do I get accepted from this point on. My college baseball teammates do trade on this app and the trading overall is easily 4 to 5 stars. The support and help is below 1, it is unbelievable. Please let me receive some valuable help!

Kalshi hosts such a fun and legit market. It’s generally easy to use and absolutely worth a try. Unfortunately every update seems to make the app worse, mostly with awful UI choices that feel like they’re targeted at making users struggle more. Within the last month, you can fit significantly less information on your screen. Features such as the easy to understand profit that updates live such as simply saying 100->156 is now pushed onto a separate screen rather than on the live score page. This is the biggest downside recently, as it takes away a lot of confidence to place bets when you can’t see the live percentages, score, graph, and profits all on the same page anymore. In sports, the teams you’re betting on seem to be intentionally listed out of order at every chance they get. Jets @ Bears in the title and maybe on the scoreboard too, then the buttons to bet are listed as Bears first then Jets. These inconsistencies are everywhere. Some categories don’t get a lot of love. Tennis commonly has matches simply never appear. And the recent cherry on top to bad updates, is that the percentages are almost never accurate to each other on screen. The graph might show Jets 37% and Bears 63%, while the buttons show Jets 56% and Bears 56% commonly not equalling 100%.

Let me start by saying this app regularly freezes, crashes, shows incorrect values to your positions, etc.I had been using the app for a few weeks and just powered through these temporary inconveniences. This weekend was enough to give me reason to STAY AWAY. On Saturday I checked to see the lines on the following days games. The app showed me as having 0$ in my portfolio, which I knew was far from the case having won a considerable amount just days prior. By the end of day whatever technical issue Kalshi was experiencing sorted itself out and my balance was restored. Still unsettling.The following day I went to place money on a combo for NFL football. An error message occurred when I tried to submit stating that the odds had changed, it could not be submitted, and to try again. So I tried again. Same message. I did this multiple times. I eventually gave up trying to submit what was intended to be a SINGLE placement. When I ent back to my portfolio I saw that the combo had been placed MULTIPLE times (placing an absurd amount of money on a single unlikely event). When I contacted support giving them an explanation stating that this was placed on their own error message misinforming me, I was given a very brief response that no refunds are issued. No looking into THEIR MISTAKE. No accountability for THEIR ERROR. Nah, just you beat and out of all your money. And don’t put a support reply at the end of this review saying I should contact support because I tried that several times.Stay away from this app. These people are frauds.

first time using this app i placed a bet on a word to be said during an nba game… The game happened over 12 hours ago now and the slip still says “TBD”… Im not sure how it takes this long to confirm but so far im unimpressed. This is not professional in any sense. You accept my money fast, let me place a wager fast, but take over 12 hours to settle my wager??? The game is only 2 hours long, how is it this hard to verify that one word was said? They also hide the withdrawal option very well. I had to literally look up on google how to withdraw after looking everywhere. It seems like there could be a lack of integrity or resources from this company. The concept is cool and unique but the haste should go both ways, not just on the receiving end of the money but the returning end as well. I’ll update my review if anything changes but as of now 3/10Update: It took them 24 hours to tell me I lost… Whats crazy is, under the “idea” tab, i saw people posting my exact same bet, some winning, some losing. It seems like they just pick and choose who they want to win. Staying far away from this scamming garbage. 1/10

I’ve been really enjoying using Kelsey so far. The interface is clean, intuitive, and actually feels thoughtfully designed instead of rushed. Everything loads smoothly, navigation makes sense, and I didn’t have to “figure it out” — which is honestly rare for a lot of apps these days.What I appreciate most is that it feels like the developers actually care about user experience. The small details matter — the responsiveness, the organization, the overall simplicity. It’s not cluttered. It’s focused. And that makes me want to keep using it instead of abandoning it after a week.I do have one feature request though: could you please consider adding badminton as an option? 🏸 It’s such a popular sport globally — especially in Asia and increasingly in the U.S. as well. A lot of college students (including people like me) play recreationally or competitively, and it would be amazing to see it supported in the app. Adding badminton would open the door for a whole new group of users who are currently underserved.Badminton is fast, technical, and community-driven — it deserves representation just like other mainstream sports. Even a basic version to start would already make a big difference.Overall, I genuinely like the direction of this app. It feels modern, clean, and promising. With a few more additions like badminton, I think it could become something even bigger.

I've been using the Kalshi app for a while now, and unfortunately, it has been a pretty underwhelming experience. The biggest issue is the extremely low liquidity. It’s difficult to find markets with enough participants, and even when you do, the order books are so thin that getting in or out of a position without significant slippage is nearly impossible. This defeats the purpose of trying to trade predictions on real-world events, as the lack of activity makes the app feel almost unusable at times.On top of that, the fees are really high relative to what you can potentially earn. When you combine the low liquidity with the high costs, it becomes hard to justify any meaningful participation. Even if you manage to make some correct predictions, the fees eat into your profits so much that it hardly feels worth it.Overall, Kalshi has a promising concept, but with its current liquidity issues and costly fees, it’s not a platform I can recommend for anyone looking to actively trade event predictions. Hopefully, these issues get addressed, but for now, the app just doesn’t deliver.

I’ve used this app for the last few weeks and I lie the options to bet, but sometimes they don’t make since and keep games and events in the live section despite them being over misleading their users letting them bet on things that are over… it maybe a user error but in the chat on the app many people have this complaint. The customer service is the worst I’ve ever had on a gambling or stock/duture. Trading platform. They auto close chats without response even if you stay in the chat. Than if you email they don’t repsond even after a few eeeks if I could give it 0 stars I would because a company and app should have great customer service in this day and age. Clearly they don’t practice ethical business practices I cn care less if I lose a bet but like can you help when your system is glitching or there are events saying live without being live. I suggest if you want an app that practices ethical business and keeps up to date DO NOT USE THIS APP . Otherswise you should if you do not mind those issues

I am new to betting and I want to try it out and see if I can win something. I placed a bet on Kalshi for $20 on the total rain inches. I live in Miami, and I know that for the month of February it hardly rained at all. So the choices on I betting were Above 1,2,3,4,5,6,7 inches. If I were to bet on 1 inch I wouldve gotten $323 I chose the lowest one thinking that the total rainfall in inches could not pass 1 inch. Seeing that was no other option below 1 inch I chose the lowest one to be safe. I saw a report say 1.18 and amongst other reports that said something similar. So I felt pretty good about my first bet. However, I was still waiting for the official result to be completely sure. 5 days later the official report came out and it said that it was below 0.10. So not only I lost money but no one won the bet when it was settled, meaning that all the money that was bet in does not go to anyone, and it goes to who knows where. So now the app feels like a scam that I just fell into. I will never place another bet on Kalshi ever again.

This app/company is horrible when it comes to support. I understand being a small team, but there is a line that has to be drawn. I made a bet of $30 to win $100 on the MMA fight this past weekend. Mind you, this is the same night I decided to try out this app to compare its functionality to Robinhood’s futures markets.I completed the verification step and even received approval to make trades/bets. However, once the bet was placed and payout time had arrived, I tried logging into my account to collect and was met with, “Something went wrong, please contact support,” which, mind you, I did four days ago.They only offer support through email—there is no support line—which is very odd and suspicious. Anyway, I included the issue as well as a screenshot. I also tried resetting my password to ensure it wasn’t user error, and that did not work for signing in, even after receiving a “Password changed successfully” message.The support team had the audacity to ask if I still needed support and to simply reply. I have already waited four days and sent you my issue, and this is how you reply? Now I have to wait possibly another four days for some response.I understand it’s not a lot of money, but it’s the principle. I sincerely hope they will find a way to help me out; otherwise, I’m going to social media and TikTok with my experience, as well as filing a complaint with the CFTC.I cannot believe the lack of professionalism. STAY AWAY!!

I think Kalshi is great. I use it every day, and it usually works well. That is, when I use it on the computer. My one star rating is for this app, and the app is just absolutely horrible. It is missing probably half of the functionality that is available accessing Kalshi on a desktop browser. I had hoped they would update the app to have more things that are available on the computer, but no, in their recent updates, they’ve actually regressed and taken out some functionality that was available on the computer. Want to bet unders on NBA player props? Get on the computer. I used to be able to bet yes or no on both sides of a contest on the app, but after the most recent update? I have to get on the computer. I really hope they start going in the other direction, but if they don’t I can’t even imagine trying to use Kalshi through the app. Heck, after this last update I would already consider the app unusable. Really hope to see some improvements come.
