Polymarket gives new users $50 bonus for World Cup Round‑of‑16 trading

Polymarket is offering a $50 sign‑up bonus to new users who make an initial deposit of at least $20. The bonus can be claimed with several promo codes—including STIFFS, TSNEWS, CUSE, SOUTH and others—and is available for any of the FIFA World Cup round‑of‑16 matches taking place on July 5‑6 2026. The promotion is limited to users who are 18 years or older and physically present in an eligible U.S. state. Once activated, the $50 bonus (bringing the starting balance to $70) may be used on any Polymarket prediction market, not only the soccer matches. Trading volume for the Mexico vs England game alone exceeded $15 million, showing strong interest. The offer applies to all round‑of‑16 fixtures, such as Brazil vs Norway, Mexico vs England, Canada vs Morocco and France vs Paraguay, giving participants flexibility to trade on any outcome.
