Introducing Kraken+, our premium membership program, designed to power your investing expe

April 7, 2025

As crypto adoption continues to accelerate globally, Kraken is evolving to better serve our loyal clients and future investors. We recently revamped the Kraken app into an intuitive, streamlined wealth-building platform. Now, we’re leveling up even further by launching Kraken+. Our new, powerful opt-in subscription powers up your investing experience to maximize your returns.

Kraken is (and will always be) free to download and use. But we know most investors seek every advantage to maximize their investment strategy while navigating crypto. That’s where Kraken+ comes in, delivering unmatched trading benefits at an affordable price point. 

Available to Kraken clients worldwide – and for the price of a single cup of coffee (just $4.99 per month)1 – Kraken+ unlocks premium perks, such as:

  • Trade up to $10,000 per month without incurring trading fees for instant transactions on the consumer app (instant buy, sell, convert, custom order or recurring buy)
  • Earn boosted rewards — up to 4%+ APR — for holding USDG on Kraken2

Kraken+ is perfect for both dedicated traders and casual investors who want to simplify trading and maximize their returns. We’re offering a 30 day free trial of Kraken+ to let everyone explore this new offering for themselves.3

We’re redefining our rewards program today to help clients maximize effortless earnings. At the core of this rewards experience is Global Dollar (USDG), a token developed for Ethereum and Solana blockchains and issued by Paxos, in partnership with Kraken, Robinhood and Anchorage.

Unlike other stablecoins, USDG is fully backed by cash and cash equivalents in segregated accounts which are audited monthly. Paxos is also regulated by the Monetary Authority of Singapore, one of the world’s top financial authorities.

Simply by holding USDG in Kraken accounts, Kraken+ subscribers earn up to 4% APR on USDG balances automatically. This compares to non-subscribing Kraken clients who earn 2% APR. No extra steps; Kraken+ automatically provides boosted weekly payouts with no lockup periods.

To help you earn passive rewards faster, USD-to-USDG conversions are now completely free for all clients, making it seamless for everyone to move from fiat balances to stablecoins and start earning rewards instantly.

We’re also breaking down small but significant barriers to simplify investing, ensuring we’re consistently bringing value to our clients and saving them time. 

U.S. clients can now set recurring orders directly from their bank account, enabling them to automatically dollar-cost average (DCA) into their favorite assets without manually funding their accounts or to transact at all. Better yet, clients can seamlessly DCA from their bank account without incurring deposit or processing fees.  

We’re exploring how to expand this feature globally so everyone can steadily grow their portfolio over time and enjoy a simplified investing experience. 

We’re just getting started, and we’re committed to ensuring our clients can invest their way – anytime, anywhere, however they prefer. 

Stay tuned for even more powerful product features, integrations and updates in the weeks ahead.
