## What it is

A Telegram bot, published as @KreoPolyBot, with a web app beside it, that trades on
[Polymarket](https://predictionmarkets.tools/tools/polymarket) for you. It works in three modes: copying other wallets as they
trade, running rule-based strategies unattended, and ordinary manual orders. The
job is automation: you are buying something that places orders while you are not watching.

**Copy trading is most of the manual.** A copy task follows one address and sizes each copy in one
of five ways: a fixed dollar amount, the leader's exact amount, a percentage of it, or a share of
your portfolio or free balance matched to the leader's (with a 0.01 to 10 times multiplier). Caps
apply per trade, per day, per market and in total. Filters cover category, price range, expiry,
liquidity and volume. The methods menu goes further than most bots in this category: copy sells,
buy on the leader's sells, counter-trade the opposite side, copy only Yes or only No, copy the
leader's merges and splits, or place limit orders at the leader's own fill price with an offset
and an expiry. The default slippage tolerance is 5%. A "Priority Mode" claims to fire your order
the instant the leader submits theirs rather than after the block confirms; nobody outside the
vendor has measured that.

**Auto Trade is two engines.** On Polymarket's short crypto Up/Down markets it triggers on the share
price or on the underlying coin's distance from the target, in a time window before close, with
presets named after how late they enter. On sports it trades per sport and league on price or game
state. The presets are named bundles of those parameters.

**The rest is research and plumbing.** A wallet tracker and an unusual-activity feed, both with a
Polymarket or Kalshi filter in the web app. A news and X feed matched to markets. A "bonds" page
listing markets close to resolution whose leading side trades just under 1 USD, with the gap
between price and payout annualised over the time left. A 30-day backtest of any address. A
chart mini-app with an order book and the top 50 holders on crypto Up/Down markets. Take-profit,
stop-loss, trailing and layered exits. Auto-redeem, auto-merge, parlays and a leverage screen.

## Availability

**Kreo's terms defer to the venues.** The eligibility clause asks that you be 18, able to contract,
and using the service only where that is lawful, and then says Kreo "does not permit access in
jurisdictions where Polymarket or Kalshi are prohibited". The prohibited-use list includes
circumventing platform restrictions. Kreo's Polymarket orders go to the international order book
on Polygon, not to the CFTC-regulated US venue, so Polymarket's own blocklist binds, and it covers
the United States, the United Kingdom and most of western Europe. The jurisdictions above are that
venue's reach. The terms do not say how the Kalshi side checks who you are, or where.

**There is no identity check at the bot.** You log in with Telegram, a wallet is generated on first
use, and nothing asks for a document. Card deposits go through Coinbase's on-ramp, a third party
with its own terms.

**The terms name no company and no governing law.** They are signed "Kreo", last updated 15 March
2026, with admin@kreo.app as the only contact. Updates are announced in the Kreo support channel,
and continued use counts as acceptance. There is no arbitration clause and no seat, which leaves a
reader with no stated forum for a dispute.

Terms of Service read on 30 September 2026.

## Pricing

**Kreo charges its own fee on the same curve Polymarket uses.** The fee page gives it per share as
`max(0.003, 0.07 × price × (1 − price))` in dollars. That is 1.75 cents a share at 50 cents, 1.31
cents at 25 or 75 cents and 0.63 cents at 10 or 90 cents. The 0.3-cent floor takes over below about
5 cents and above about 95 cents. The fields above carry 1.75%, which is 1.75 cents on the dollar a
contract pays out at the midpoint.

It applies to buys and to sells, and the page does not exempt limit orders, so the maker field
carries the same figure. Redemptions and claims pay a separate 0.3%.

**This is on top of the venue, and the page does not say so.** The fee page presents the curve as
Kreo's own, and the cashback that rebates it is paid by Kreo. It does not mention Polymarket's fee.
Every Kreo order lands on Polymarket's order book, where the venue's own taker fee applies to the
same fill. On a crypto market Polymarket's coefficient is also 0.07, so a taker at 50 cents pays
about 3.5 cents a share in total, which is 7% of what the share cost.

**The floor bites on longshots.** At a price of 1 cent the 0.3-cent floor is 30% of what the share
cost. Copying a leader who buys deep out-of-the-money outcomes is where the fee matters most.

**Cashback lowers it by volume.** The rebate is 5% of fees paid from the first dollar, rising to
10%, 15%, 20% and 25% at 1,000, 2,000, 4,000 and 6,000 USD of lifetime volume, counted as buys
plus sells. At the top tier the midpoint fee is about 1.31 cents a share.

**What else pays.** Referrers get 30% of their direct referrals' fees (35% at the top tier), 3% one
level down and 2% at the third. Deposits start at 2 USD on most chains and 7 USD from Ethereum or Bitcoin.
Bridged withdrawals to another chain have a 2 USD minimum.

Fee, cashback, referral and deposit pages read on 30 September 2026.

## Markets & resolution

Polymarket markets are Polymarket's, settled in pUSD on Polygon
and resolved by Polymarket's own process. Settlement reads crypto above because every Kreo wallet,
the Kalshi one included, is funded and withdrawn in crypto; how a Kalshi position settles inside
it is not documented. Kreo's terms disclaim responsibility for outcomes and settlement mechanisms
on either venue.

Three features change what you hold. **Auto-merge** buys the opposite side of a position when both
sides together cost less than a dollar and merges the pair back to cash. That removes the position
before resolution, and the documented minimum margin is 0.1%. **Parlays** combine two or more legs
into one position that pays only if every leg wins, and the documentation describes them for World
Cup matches. **Leverage** lists markets with up to 10 times leverage and warns that a position can
lose more than the initial deposit. Neither page says who takes the other side of a parlay or who
lends against a leveraged position, and those are the questions a reader needs answered first.

## Integrations

Privy creates and secures the wallets. Polymarket's infrastructure deploys the Safe. Coinbase
handles card deposits, and a built-in bridge takes deposits from Ethereum, Base, Arbitrum, Solana,
Bitcoin and Polygon tokens. The owner key exports through a companion "Kreo Hub" bot and imports
into MetaMask or Phantom, where the same Polymarket positions are visible.

The web app connects to the Telegram account by an approval message in the bot, and the link
expires after about a month. There is no public API, SDK, webhook or MCP server. The documentation
site ships an OpenAPI reference slot, but the file behind it is the documentation platform's
placeholder example, not a Kreo interface. A browser extension is listed as coming soon.

## Limitations

**"Non-custodial" answers who holds the key, not who can sign.** The terms say Kreo does not control
private keys, and the wallets are Privy-secured Safes you can export. A bot that copies a trade at
3am while your phone is off still has to be able to sign without you. The documents do not describe
that delegation: what Kreo's servers are authorised to do with your Safe, whether it can be
revoked, or what happens to a pending copy if Kreo disappears. Optional two-factor authentication
guards withdrawals, not trading. The exported key is the owner key, which shows a different
address from the trading wallet, and there is no seed phrase.

**The name is crowded.** Kreo's safety page says the team will never call or DM first or ask for a
key, and spends most of its length on stopping Telegram spam calls, which suggests impersonators
are a live problem. Several sites that rank for "Kreo" are not Kreo's. kreopoly.app looks like an official
landing page, uses the product's name and carries a referral code on every bot link, and its fee
answer (subscription and performance fees) contradicts the terms. Kreo's own properties are kreo.app,
its hub and docs subdomains, and the @KreoPolyBot handle.

**AI Match recommends whom to copy.** It asks for your risk tolerance, markets, style, holding
period and priorities, then returns wallet addresses with a one-tap button that starts copying
them. The backtest labels an address "Recommended" or "Not Recommended" on its last 30 days,
replayed with fills 2% worse each way. Neither names an outcome to buy, but a copy task buys
whatever the chosen wallet buys, so what Kreo recommends is, in effect, a stream of trades. That is
why the AI flag above reads recommendations. The decision to start a copy is still yours: nothing
copies until you press the button, and the documentation's own tip is that past profitability does
not carry forward. A 30-day window is one month of one address.

**The leaders are paid by the fill.** A wallet that other Kreo users copy earns 15% of the fees its
followers' copies generate. That pays a leader for trading often and for being copied by many, not
for the copies ending up in profit.

**Copies fill later, and sometimes not at all.** The leader's fill has moved the book by the time
yours arrives, Polymarket's 1 USD minimum skips small proportional copies unless you round them up,
and Kreo recommends muting notifications on busy wallets because Telegram rate-limits the bot.

**Kalshi is a claim without a manual.** The terms, the home page and the web filters name it, and the
documentation describes it only as a separate wallet you fund on its own. No page explains how a
Kalshi order is placed, whose account it lands in, or what identity check applies, and a reader who
needs Kalshi should start from [Kalshi's own card](https://predictionmarkets.tools/tools/kalshi).

## Alternatives

[PolyCop](https://predictionmarkets.tools/tools/polycop) is the closest match on the same venue: copy trading and unattended
strategies from Telegram for a flat 0.5% of each trade, but from a wallet the company says in its
terms that it holds. [Polycool](https://predictionmarkets.tools/tools/polycool) does copy trading as a phone app with a
volume-tiered fee from 1% down to 0.5%. [PolyWallet](https://predictionmarkets.tools/tools/polywallet) and
[OrcaLayer](https://predictionmarkets.tools/tools/orcalayer) cover the wallet-watching half without routing your orders or taking a
cut, and [Convexly](https://predictionmarkets.tools/tools/convexly) publishes its method for judging an address before you follow
it.

Writing the copy logic yourself removes Kreo's fee and Kreo's access to the wallet together:
Polymarket's own Python SDK, [polymarket-client](https://predictionmarkets.tools/tools/polymarket-client), or the cross-venue
[PMXT](https://predictionmarkets.tools/tools/pmxt) will place the orders, and the venue's fee is then the only one. A US reader wanting a venue that will open an account should look at
[Polymarket US](https://predictionmarkets.tools/tools/polymarket-us) or [Kalshi](https://predictionmarkets.tools/tools/kalshi).

## FAQ

### What does Kreo charge per trade?

Its own fee per share, the larger of 0.3 cents and 0.07 × price × (1 − price). That is 1.75 cents a share at a price of 50 cents and 0.63 cents at 10 or 90 cents, on buys and sells alike, and it comes on top of whatever Polymarket charges for the same fill. Redemptions pay 0.3%, and a cashback tier returns 5% to 25% of fees paid.

### Does Kreo hold my private key?

Its Terms of Service say no. Polymarket wallets are Gnosis Safe wallets created through Polymarket's infrastructure and secured by Privy, and Kreo states it does not control private keys or custody funds. You can export the owner key. The documents do not describe how the bot signs orders while you are offline.

### Is kreopoly.app Kreo's official site?

Kreo's own documentation and main site point to kreo.app and docs.kreo.app, not to kreopoly.app. Every bot link on kreopoly.app carries a referral code, and its fee answer, which mentions subscription and performance fees, contradicts Kreo's terms. Check the bot handle, @KreoPolyBot, before funding anything.

### Can a US person use Kreo?

Not for Polymarket trading. Kreo's terms do not permit access where Polymarket or Kalshi is prohibited, and Kreo's Polymarket orders go to the international order book, which excludes the United States. Kreo also lists Kalshi, but its documents do not say how Kalshi orders are placed or for whom.

## Background

- [What running a bot does not solve](https://predictionmarkets.tools/guides/what-a-bot-cannot-fix.md) — A bot fixes speed and consistency. Rate limits, a missing rehearsal, a field that stops arriving, a partial fill and a paused market are not coding problems.

- [Why your bot gets throttled, and what the limit is counted against](https://predictionmarkets.tools/guides/why-your-bot-gets-throttled.md) — Kalshi meters tokens per account tier; Polymarket's order book meters requests per IP and queues the excess. What each counts, and what the libraries assume.

- [Where your key lives when software trades for you](https://predictionmarkets.tools/guides/where-your-key-lives.md) — Four different credentials are all called a key, and they differ in what a copy permits. What the clients in this catalogue ask for, and what to ask them back.
