Kraken

Kraken, operated by Payward, Inc., is a trading platform spanning crypto, stocks, futures and more, trusted by millions worldwide. It offers leverage, deep liquidity and fast execution across 600+ crypto pairs and 11,000+ stocks and ETFs, accessible via web, mobile app and API, and was voted Best Crypto Platform by Forbes Advisor in 2024.

Kraken covers the full breadth of DeFi on web and mobile, letting users deposit, earn and trade on-chain, with staking that earns APY on eligible assets (rewards are an estimate based on past periods and are not guaranteed). Kraken Pay lets users spend crypto or cash at 80 million-plus merchants worldwide, earn APY on their balance, and send money internationally with no fees.

In the US, Kraken Equities offers brokerage services through Kraken Securities LLC, a member of FINRA/SIPC and a wholly owned Payward subsidiary, letting users trade equities like TSLA and AAPL alongside crypto; this brokerage offering is explicitly not an offer, solicitation or advice to buy or sell securities outside a properly opened account. Margin and derivatives trading carry their own risk disclosures, and Kraken directs traders to its Margin Disclosure Statement before using leveraged products, reflecting the platform's emphasis on regulatory-conscious access to higher-risk trading tools. No platform subscription price is published on the pages captured for this listing; the only figures found were live Bitcoin market price data, not Kraken's own trading fees.
