Title: Kraken fees - confused !!! Post by: zzert1234 on May 26, 2017, 03:23:23 PM Hi Guys,
Kraken's fee page https://www.kraken.com/help/fees , shows 0.16% fee for trades with volumes up to 50 000 !!? Is this really just 0.16 % per trade ? And how is it possible that the fee is so much lower than Coinbase's 1.5 % per trade ? This will make me seriously consider switching to Kraken ASAP. Title: Re: Kraken fees - confused !!!

And never change at Coinbase: they have their own exchange GDAX.com. Maker fee = 0% Taker fee = 0.25% (or lower)\ So when you act as maker you have no fee at all. Transferring between Coinbase and GDAX is instant and free |
