Kraken API Partner Program: is your platform’s infrastructure a competitive advantage or a ceiling?
TL;DR
Trading platforms are increasingly judged on infrastructure, specifically execution, liquidity, and market access, not just visible features like interface or charting tools
The Kraken API Partner Program provides API access to spot trading (640+ crypto assets), futures trading (linear and inverse contracts, excluding US CME futures), and xStocks for tokenized US equities and ETFs
We’ve built 14+ years of infrastructure supporting traders in 190+ countries and $2 trillion in 2025 transaction volume, with 99.9% uptime for algorithmic and high-frequency strategies
The program’s commission model rewards platform quality through a long-term commercial arrangement tied to partner trading activity
At the beginning, users notice the visible layer first: the interface, charting tools, automation features, mobile experience, or the simplicity of getting started. Those things matter. They help platforms stand out and win early adoption.
