Kalshi Adds StarCompliance as Prediction Market Oversight Scrutiny Builds

Kalshi has added StarCompliance as a software partner in a bid to improve surveillance for institutional users of prediction markets. The collaboration is focused on tools that help monitor activity tied to event-based contracts, according to the source material.

The development matters because prediction markets are drawing more attention from both market participants and regulators. Stronger surveillance systems can be important for institutions evaluating whether these products meet internal compliance and oversight requirements.

The partnership arrives while US state regulators and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission remain in a dispute over oversight of event-based contracts. That regulatory tension has become a central issue for platforms offering markets tied to real-world outcomes.

For Kalshi, adding a compliance software partner signals an effort to address concerns around monitoring and market integrity as the sector grows. The source does not specify new product terms, pricing, or launch dates tied to the partnership.

Prediction markets sit at the intersection of finance, regulation, and public interest in forecasting events. As the rules around event contracts continue to be contested, compliance infrastructure is likely to remain a key part of how platforms present themselves to institutional users.
