What Kraken charges
The card line is Kraken's fee for a debit card deposit of the trade amount; a card purchase in the app shows its own fee on the confirmation page. Kraken+ waives the app's trading fee only, not the spread or card fees. Pro tiers here use 30-day spot volume; Kraken also counts futures volume or assets held on Kraken, whichever reaches the higher tier. Your bank may charge for sending money. Crypto prices move, and this calculator prices fees only.
Kraken's fees
A $1,000 trade, four ways
The card column adds Kraken's $0.25 + 3.75% fee for depositing $1,000 by debit card ($37.75), which is more than any trading fee here. A card purchase made directly in the app shows its own fee on the confirmation page. The app rows also carry a spread that Kraken does not publish, so they are the least a trade there costs.
Kraken Pro fee tiers
Your tier is the best of three measures: 30-day spot volume, futures volume and the assets you hold on Kraken. Instant buys in the app do not count towards the volume. A maker order rests on the order book until someone trades against it; a taker order, such as a market order, fills at once. Stablecoin and FX pairs have their own schedule, and a short list of lower-liquidity pairs pays a lower maker rate.
Deposit and withdrawal fees, by currency
SWIFT deposits through Bank Frick cost $3, £3, C$3 or €3, and US dollar SWIFT through Customers Bank is free with a $100 minimum. A Canadian domestic wire is free from Kraken, but its table notes a C$13.74 intermediary bank fee. Your own bank may charge for sending money too.
When Kraken+ pays for itself
Kraken+ costs $4.99 a month and removes the app's 1% trading fee on up to $10,000 of buys, sells and converts a month. At 1%, the fee it waives matches its price at $499 of instant trades a month; above that it saves money, up to $95.01 a month at the $10,000 limit. It does not change the spread, card deposit fees or Kraken Pro fees.
What Kraken does not publish
The app's spread has no published size. A card purchase in the app shows its total fee on the confirmation page rather than as a published percentage, so this page prices the card through Kraken's deposit table. PayPal deposit fees vary by region, and crypto withdrawal fees vary by asset and can change.
Kraken fees: common questions
What fees does Kraken charge?
In the Kraken app, 1% on an instant buy, sell or convert and 1.5% on a custom order, and the price also includes a spread that Kraken does not publish. On Kraken Pro, a maker or taker fee set by your 30-day volume: 0.4% and 0.8% at Tier 1, falling to 0% and 0.05% at Pro 5. Bank deposits are free in US dollars, pounds, Canadian dollars and euros; a debit card deposit costs $0.25 + 3.75%.
Is Kraken Pro cheaper than the Kraken app?
Without Kraken+, yes: a $1,000 trade costs $10.00 in the app plus its spread, $8.00 as a Kraken Pro market order and $4.00 as a Pro limit order that rests on the book, at Tier 1, and every Pro tier is below the app's 1%. Kraken+ removes the app's trading fee on up to $10,000 a month, which leaves the app's spread as its only charge there.
How much does Kraken charge to sell crypto?
The same as to buy: 1% in the app plus the spread, or the Pro maker or taker fee. Getting the money to your bank adds the withdrawal fee: free by ACH in the US, so a $1,000 instant sale withdrawn by ACH costs $10.00 in published fees; by RTP, which arrives near-instantly, $25.00.
What is the Kraken conversion fee?
Converting one crypto into another in the app is an instant trade: 1% plus the spread. Kraken's "Convert Small Balances" feature charges a fixed 3% on amounts below the minimum order size.
What are Kraken deposit fees?
Bank transfers are free: ACH and FedWire in US dollars, Faster Payments in pounds, Interac e-Transfer in Canadian dollars and SEPA in euros. A debit card deposit costs $0.25 + 3.75% (or £0.25, C$0.25 or €0.25 + 3.75%), so $37.75 on $1,000. SWIFT deposits through Bank Frick cost $3, £3, C$3 or €3.
What are Kraken withdrawal fees?
To a bank: in US dollars, ACH free, FedWire $4, RTP (instant) 1.5% (max $50), SWIFT $14; in pounds, Faster Payments £1.95, SWIFT £13; in Canadian dollars, EFT 0.35%, Interac e-Transfer C$10, SWIFT C$13; in euros, SEPA €1, SWIFT €5. Crypto withdrawal fees vary by asset and network, and Kraken shows them before you confirm.
Is Kraken+ worth it?
Kraken+ costs $4.99 a month (or the local equivalent, after a 30-day free trial) and waives the app's trading fee on up to $10,000 of trades a month. At 1%, that saving passes the price above $499 of instant trades a month. Spreads and card fees still apply, and Kraken Pro trades are not covered.
Are Kraken fees different in the UK and Canada?
The trading fees are the same: Kraken's UK and Canadian fee schedules list the same app fees and Kraken Pro tiers. Funding differs by currency: in the UK, Faster Payments deposits are free, card deposits cost £0.25 + 3.75% and Faster Payments withdrawals £1.95; in Canada, Interac e-Transfer deposits are free, card deposits cost C$0.25 + 3.75%, and withdrawals cost 0.35% by EFT or C$10 by e-Transfer.
Does Kraken charge a spread?
In the app, yes: the price of an instant buy, sell, convert or custom order includes a spread, which Kraken says varies with volatility, the asset, the order's size and type, VIP status and account activity, and it publishes no figure. Kraken Pro charges its maker or taker fee on the order book's price.
