About Polymarket

Polymarket is the world's largest prediction market platform. We enable individuals to express views on real-world events by trading on outcomes across politics, economics, sports, culture, and current affairs. Built as a peer-to-peer marketplace with no centralized "house," Polymarket aggregates diverse opinions into transparent, market-based probabilities that reflect collective expectations about the future.

We're growing fast: both in volume ($21B traded in 2025) and in adoption as an alternative news source. Our ambition is to become a ubiquitous beacon of truth in global media, powered by fast, reliable, and deeply technical market infrastructure.


About the Role

We're building our Summer 2026 internship class and looking specifically for undergraduate students studying marketing, finance, business, or related fields who sit at the intersection of markets and culture. This program is designed for students who can think rigorously about probabilities and incentives, communicate naturally with their peers, and help bring prediction markets to the next generation of users.

Interns in this track will work alongside our growth, marketing, and markets teams to:

• Drive awareness and adoption of Polymarket within student and early-career communities

• Create content that translates markets, events, and probabilities for a broader audience

• Lead local programming — campus events, meetups, partnerships, and community-building

• Surface trends, narratives, and market opportunities

What You'll Get

Beyond the day-to-day work, every intern in this track will participate in weekly learning sessions led by Polymarket's marketing and finance teams — widely regarded as some of the sharpest operators in fintech. Sessions will cover go-to-market strategy, brand building, growth analytics, capital markets, and how a category-defining company actually gets built. You'll leave the summer with a perspective on markets, media, and growth that's hard to find anywhere else.

Who We're Looking For

• Currently pursuing an undergraduate degree in marketing, finance, economics, business, communications, or a related field

• Deep interest in financial markets, prediction markets, current events, or trading

• Strong written and social communication skills with a clear personal voice

• Active, credible presence in your campus or local community — someone people listen to

• Comfortable balancing creative instincts with quantitative thinking

• Self-directed, fast-moving, and energized by ambiguity

Bonus Points

• Track record running clubs, events, newsletters, podcasts, or social accounts with real audiences

• Prior internship or project work in marketing, finance, media, or growth

• Existing Polymarket user or active participant in prediction market / trading communities
