Coming soon: 64 new spot pairs join our maker fee incentive structure, with more on the way!
On August 1st, 2025, we will be adding 64 new eligible spot trading pairs to our maker fee incentive structure in Kraken Pro. We launched it in late June to incentivize deeper liquidity and improve market efficiency, and today we are happy to announce we will be expanding the amount of pairs eligible.
In addition, any new pairs listed on Kraken Pro from August 1, 2025 onwards will automatically be eligible for the new maker fee schedule, with the objective of jump‑starting liquidity and tightening spreads on newly listed pairs.

Quick recap: What is the maker fee incentive structure?
This promotion introduces lower maker fees across all maker fee tiers for a select number of lower liquidity pairs. Users at the $10M+ 30d volume fee tier are also eligible to earn maker fees.
The new fees apply only to maker trades on eligible spot pairs. If eligible, you’ll earn the rebate instantly at the time of trade execution, based on your rolling 30-day Kraken spot trading volume. Taker trade fees remain unchanged.
