Rewards is now available on Kraken Pro!

Seamlessly earn returns on all eligible cryptoassets!

Rewards is our new feature that allows users to make their cryptoassets work harder while also helping support the crypto ecosystem by helping to validate transactions.

Earn rewards on assets held in your spot balance without locking them away or being subject to any bonding periods. You can access your assets to trade, withdraw or use for margin collateral at any time (if available in your area).

Gone are the days of manually clicking through your portfolio to earn on individual assets. Rewards automates the entire process for you. With our easy enrollment, it couldn’t be simpler to join the growing number of users earning rewards on their crypto.
