Kraken Liquidity Provider Program: tier your rebates to your volume share, not a fixed number
Kraken Liquidity Provider Program: tier your rebates to your volume share, not a fixed number

TL;DR

  • Five-tier Liquidity Provider Program launches across Spot, Futures, and xStocks, with maker rebates up to -0.005% (Spot), -0.006% (Futures), and -0.020% (xStocks)

  • Share-based qualification: rolling 30-day Maker Contribution Share, not a fixed notional volume minimum

  • Credit line eligibility from LP 3, plus 2 exceptions per year and a 2-month grace period at launch

  • One tier ladder spans Spot, Futures, and xStocks; qualifying on either product independently unlocks your tier

Why we built this

Our institutional growth depends on liquidity depth across three product verticals: Spot, Futures, and xStocks. Deep, reliable liquidity is core market infrastructure, and infrastructure doesn’t build itself.
