The referral offer in September 2026

What the referred friend and the referrer get, and under what conditions

Kraken doesn't offer a flashy fixed amount like a casino bonus. The official program works with a random crypto reward credited to both accounts, once the referred friend has made a deposit and a first trade.

It's less spectacular than the "€200 guaranteed" some directories advertise, but it's verifiable and it's what's actually paid out. See the exact amounts and timing.

Referred friend: Fixed reward of €30
Referrer: The same fixed reward of €30
Condition: 1 deposit of at least €200 (or your local-currency equivalent) + trades of at least €200
Timing: No fixed delay: credited once Kraken has validated the conditions

The referral isn't a discount code on fees. Your trading fees stay the same: see the fee schedule.

Referral code or invite link?

Two ways to be linked, only one that never fails

The invite link

The invite.kraken.com link carries the referral automatically. The field is already filled in, so there's nothing to type and nothing to forget. This is the recommended method.

Maximum reliability

The code sp39y5dw

Useful if you already have a Kraken tab open: paste the code into the "referral code" field on the sign-up form, before submitting account creation.

Activate the bonus in 4 steps

About 10 minutes, KYC included

1
Open the invite link
The invite.kraken.com link pre-fills the referral. It's the most reliable way to make sure the bonus gets attached to your account.
2
Create the account with the code
If the field is empty, paste sp39y5dw while creating the account. A code added after sign-up is never applied retroactively.
3
Verify your identity (KYC)
ID document + selfie. Without a validated verification, there's no deposit and therefore no bonus.
4
Deposit and trade
A deposit of at least €200 followed by trades of at least €200 triggers the fixed reward of €30.

Referrer and friend: who gets what

Common questions about the code

Every edge case is covered in the FAQ.

Is the Kraken referral code valid in 2026?

Yes, but only in specific EEA countries. As of now that list does not include Germany, Portugal, the UK, Switzerland, the US, Canada, or Australia. Check your own Kraken referral dashboard for the current list before sharing the link, since it can change.

Can I enter the code after creating my account?

No. The referral link is set at account creation. If the account is already open without a code, the referral can no longer be applied to it.

How much does the Kraken referral actually pay?

The reward is a fixed €30, paid to both the referred friend and the referrer once the conditions are met (a deposit of at least €200 and trades of at least €200).

Does using the code cost anything?

No. The code is free and doesn't change your fees. It simply adds a welcome reward once the conditions are met.
