Standing Order Incentive Program

This liquidity incentive program runs weekly, from Saturday at 12:00:00 AM ET through Friday at 11:59:59 PM ET. Before each week, we will publish a list of the eligible contracts and the total incentive amount allocated to them. During certain illiquid or high-volatility periods, we may also apply premium multipliers, which will be published in advance. Incentives are calculated based on the total premium paid during the week. Each eligible participant earns a pro-rata share of the incentive pool based on their share of the total premium, subject to several limits designed to promote broad participation and prevent coordinated trading. Payouts are distributed weekly on the Monday following the end of each eligible incentive period.

• Premium paid on standing orders matched during designed high-volatility periods is multiplied when calculating qualifying premium. For example, with a 2x multiplier, $100 of premium is treated as $200 for incentive calculations.
• No single API Participant may receive more than 10% of the total incentive amount allocated for a given week.
• Payments are capped at 50% of the participant’s actual premium paid during that week, regardless of any multipliers.
• When calculating a participant’s qualifying premium, if 10% or more of that participant’s total standing-order premium is matched with a single counterparty, the amount counted from that counterparty is capped at 10% of the participant’s total premium. Any excess premium matched with that counterparty is excluded from the calculation.

The maximum incentive pool per week is $250,000, though Polymarket US may apply different allocations, timeframes, and multipliers for different contracts or contract groups, subject to that weekly cap.
