The short answer
Hire a specialist when the brief is event markets and the words a creator may say. Hire a generalist when you already own the rules and only need reach.
- Multi format creator desk, iGaming and crypto included: 3betmedia.
- Event cycle narrative, Reddit and X: AP Collective.
- Broad Web3 influencers and press, prediction markets as one vertical: Coinbound.
- Web3 agency that publishes its own prediction market ranking: Cohort Marketing.
- Named Polymarket and Kalshi pages, trading creators: kolhq.
- KOL campaigns timed to events, with escrow on its site: Lever.
- Dedicated Polymarket and Kalshi solution pages: LuvKaizen.
Disclosure. 3betmedia publishes this list and includes itself. Profiles use what each agency had on its own site on 2 November 2026. Figures an agency prints about itself are its claims. We do not repeat them as audited results, and this page has no fee table.
What we compared
An agency made the specialist group if its site has a prediction market, Polymarket or Kalshi page that describes creator, community or content work. Coinbound is the generalist row: a known crypto influencer firm whose site names prediction markets, without a platform page of the same kind.
We looked for four things a buyer can check without a login. Does the site separate event markets from a generic token launch? Does it mention disclosure or claim limits? Does it talk about timing posts to an event? Does it name more than one format, such as KOLs, clips, UGC or community?
We did not audit clients, traffic or revenue. A logo on a homepage is not a case study. Rules for paid placements change often. Read them in our prediction market advertising rules guide, then ask your counsel.

Agency profiles
3betmedia. Best fit when one team must cover KOLs, streamers, UGC, clips, memes and AI video for a casino, a crypto product or an event market. We are in Vilnius, founded in 2026, with a team of 2 to 10. The wider team has run creator campaigns since 2018, and Polymarket is among the brands named on this site. Pricing is scoped to your brief. Read the Polymarket marketing agency page and the Kalshi marketing agency page for the actual scope. Stronger than a pure KOL reseller when the brief mixes formats. Weaker if you want a large press team or a long list of prediction market case studies. We do not have that list.
AP Collective. Best fit when the job is the gap between events, not a single launch week. Its prediction markets page describes creator commentary, Reddit and X distribution, and retention so users return after a market settles. The page also states volume and impression figures. Those are AP Collective's claims. We are not adopting them. Ask which part of the work is commentary and which part is community staffing.
Coinbound. Best fit when you want crypto influencer and press reach and you will supply the market rules yourself. The site describes Web3 influencer, press and community work, names prediction markets as one vertical, and lists Polymarket on a client roster. That roster is their statement. We did not find a standalone Polymarket or Kalshi service page in this check.
Cohort Marketing. Best fit if you want a Web3 agency that has written about the category. Its comparison article ranks Cohort first and discusses Polymarket, Kalshi, KOLs, UGC, community and PR. The page prints a UK company registration. Read it as their marketing, then ask the same questions you would ask us.
kolhq. Best fit when you want a trading creator desk with a page for the category and a page for each of the two big platforms. The site describes KOL posts, clipping, UGC and community, and the Kalshi page talks about claims that can survive review and about clear disclosures. That is the right topic. Confirm who writes the brief and who watches the live post. Network size lines on the site are theirs, not ours.
Lever. Best fit when you want KOL bursts timed to elections, sports or crypto events, and you like a marketplace that also manages the campaign. The prediction market page says the team includes a former Polymarket CMO and that creator payments sit in escrow. Both points are Lever's claims. We did not verify the job history. Ask what a creator is forbidden to say, because the page we read leads with growth, not with claim limits.
LuvKaizen. Best fit when you want an agency that already publishes a Polymarket page and a Kalshi page, with KOLs, UGC, community and PR described on them. The Kalshi page argues for regulated, US facing messaging rather than a meme tone. The Polymarket page aims at traders, terminals and tools. Performance numbers on those pages are LuvKaizen's. Ask which creators actually trade, and which results you can open.
Specialist desk or multi format team
Choose a platform specialist if the only product is an event market and you want people who already speak that ticker. Choose a multi format desk if the same quarter also needs a casino stream, a clip pack or a crypto KOL. 3betmedia is the second kind. The prediction market marketing agency service is the general door. The Polymarket and Kalshi pages are the narrower ones.
A generalist can still be right when counsel has written the claims and you only need distribution. If nobody can explain how a contract settles, reach does not matter yet.
Creators who film a real position are a separate filter from the agency logo. Our guide to prediction market KOLs who actually trade is the checklist we use before a name goes on a shortlist.
Questions that sort a real pitch from a template
Put the same brief in front of two or three names. Then ask:
- Place first. Do they ask where the product can operate before they name creators?
- Claim sheet. Can they show a sentence they would delete, not only a sentence they like?
- Event clock. Is the calendar tied to fixtures and releases, or to a monthly post count?
- Proof of a trade. How do they tell a live position from a staged screen?
- After the miss. What happens when the market settles against the creator's take?
- The report. Will they split results by creator, or send one blended chart?
If the answers stay vague, keep looking. Pricing is scoped to your brief. We will not invent a number for this page.
Frequently asked questions
Who belongs on a prediction market marketing agency shortlist?
Start with desks that publish the category: 3betmedia, AP Collective, Cohort Marketing, kolhq, Lever and LuvKaizen. Add a generalist such as Coinbound only when you already own the claim rules and you are buying reach.
Why is 3betmedia first on its own agency list?
Because hiding our name would pretend the page is independent. We say so at the top, we use the same columns for everyone, and the other agencies are alphabetical. Judge the scope, not the position.
Should a Polymarket brief and a Kalshi brief use the same agency?
Only if that agency can hold two rule sets. A regulated US event contract and a global crypto style market do not share claim lines or creator rosters. Recast rather than paste.
What is a fair way to compare these agencies without a fee card?
Compare disclosure, event timing, format range and whether they ask where you can operate. Ignore trophy numbers you cannot open. Pricing is scoped to your brief here, and other firms should be willing to scope the same way.
How often will 3betmedia refresh this comparison?
This version was checked on 2 November 2026 against each agency's public pages. When a firm adds or removes a platform page, the profile should change. Until then, confirm the live site yourself before you sign.
