Fee FAQs

Kraken Pro fees run from 0.40% maker/0.80% taker, to 0.00% maker/0.05% taker across products. Your tier is set by your 30-day spot volume, 30-day futures volume, or assets on platform, whichever is most favorable. The more you trade or deposit the lower your fees.

Your fee tier is determined by your 30-day spot trading volume, 30-day futures volume, or your eligible assets on platform. The metrics don’t combine, the highest one determines your tier and sets your rate. Learn more about our cross-platform fees here.
