A prop firm for Kalshi
prediction markets.
If you are searching for a Kalshi prop firm, this is how Refract Funding works: buy a funded simulated account that activates instantly on live Kalshi and Polymarket order books, trade it under a published trailing drawdown, and earn real USDC payouts.
What Refract Funding is
Refract Funding sells instant funded accounts for prediction markets: traders buy a simulated Kalshi and Polymarket account that activates immediately, trade it under a published trailing drawdown, and can earn USDC payouts on eligible simulated profit under the published program rules.
Every account trades simulated capital against the real, live order books that Kalshi and Polymarket publish, with venue-modeled fees and depth-aware fills. You bring the edge; the firm brings the buying power.
How the funded program works
1. Trade free. The simulator and the competition cost nothing, run on the same live data, and never expire.
2. Buy a funded account. A one-time price, published up front. There is no evaluation, no profit target, and no minimum trading days; the account is live the moment payment confirms. If it breaches the trailing drawdown you lose only the price; there is no debt.
3. Withdraw on your terms. You choose the amount, up to your live withdrawable balance, and eligible simulated profits qualify for real USDC payouts under the program rules.
Buying a funded account does not guarantee a payout; payouts depend on the program rules, eligibility, identity and fair-play review, regional availability, and approval.

Why live order books matter
Most practice tools fill you at a mid price that no real trader gets. Refract Funding fills simulated orders against the displayed Kalshi and Polymarket depth, so slippage, spread, and fees behave the way they will when you trade real size anywhere. That is what makes the funded account worth trading: performance that survives a real book.
Build that process before buying an account with the Kalshi paper-trading guide and the Kalshi trading-strategy framework.
