Plus500 launches Kalshi perpetual futures through US FCM
Plus500 says Kalshi perpetual futures are available through its US FCM across B2B and B2B2C channels, with direct clearing through Kalshi Klear.
Plus500 has launched access to Kalshi perpetual futures through its US futures commission merchant, extending a partnership that already covers prediction-market contracts.
The company said in its October 28 regulatory announcement that the products are available across its business-to-business and business-to-business-to-consumer channels. The release is also reproduced by Investegate.
Direct clearing through Kalshi Klear
Plus500 says it handles execution, routing, clearing and risk management through its own technology and clears the contracts directly as a member of Kalshi Klear.
It describes itself as the first futures commission merchant to offer Kalshi perpetuals apart from Kalshi Prime. That exclusion is part of the company's claim.
Perpetual futures have no expiry date. They extend Kalshi's product offering beyond the event contracts that pay according to a specified outcome.
Plus500 said it would seek to expand access as additional contracts become available. The announcement does not disclose launch volumes, customer numbers or product-specific fees.
The launch follows other efforts to broaden access to US derivatives. OG.com and Crypto.com recently announced US crypto perpetuals, while Rothera received approval for a corporate KPI swap. These are separate products with different contract terms.
