KuCoin publishes 0.1% taker / 0.1% maker as its entry-tier trading fees, and every number on this page links back to the official schedule it came from (last checked July 11, 2026). KuCoin accepts sign-ups from New Zealand at the time of our last check. Reserve transparency is part of the score here: the table notes what the platform publishes about its holdings. The service has operated since 2017, which we treat as track record, not as an endorsement. New Zealand users generally get full access to global venues, with NZD funding depending on each platform's fiat support.

The table below is the public entry-tier snapshot for KuCoin: published fees, verification rules, and account terms, each linked to the official page it was read from and dated July 11, 2026. Logged-in tiers, promotions, and regional product lines can differ from the public schedule, so treat these numbers as the starting point for New Zealand and confirm inside the account before moving size.
