Kraken publishes 0.4% taker / 0.25% maker as its entry-tier trading fees, and every number on this page links back to the official schedule it came from (last checked August 30, 2026). Kraken does not currently accept customers from Singapore according to its published terms, so this page is informational for Singapore readers. Reserve transparency is part of the score here: the table notes what the platform publishes about its holdings. Singapore regulates crypto service providers tightly, and several global venues restrict retail onboarding for Singapore residents.

Using Kraken from Singapore
Signing up from Singapore puts Kraken under a local rulebook, and it is not what the fee table alone tells you. Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) oversees retail crypto as a payment service. Payment Services Act licensing: crypto exchanges are licensed payment service providers under the digital payment token service category, typically holding a Major Payment Institution licence. How money actually reaches the order book here: FAST (Fast and Secure Transfers) is the instant Singapore-dollar interbank transfer rail used for exchange deposits. PayNow is the consumer-facing proxy-addressing overlay on FAST, letting users pay via mobile number, NRIC or business number. On tax treatment in this market: IRAS generally treats individuals' gains from buying and selling financial instruments, including digital tokens, as non-taxable personal investments; there is no capital gains tax.
