How to use Kraken
referral code rfqr7jtt

Claim your Kraken welcome bonus in five clear steps — sign up with the code, verify, fund your account, and make one trade. Verified July 7, 2026.

Start on Kraken with code rfqr7jtt →
  1. 1

    Open the invite link or enter the code

    Use the invite link to have the referral attached automatically, or on Kraken's signup screen paste code rfqr7jtt into the referral field. You must be a brand-new Kraken user — the code can't be added to an existing account.

  2. 2

    Create and verify your account (KYC)

    Register with your email, then complete identity verification. Kraken is a regulated exchange, so a photo ID is required before you can fund or trade. This usually takes a few minutes to a few hours.

  3. 3

    Deposit fiat by bank transfer

    Fund your account with cash (USD, EUR, etc.) via bank transfer. Debit/credit-card deposits are excluded from the referral requirement. The minimum amount you need is shown inside your Kraken app.

  4. 4

    Make one qualifying trade

    Buy real crypto (for example BTC or ETH) to reach the trade amount shown in your app. Stablecoin-only trades don't count. Complete this within 30 days of creating your account.

  5. 5

    Receive your bonus

    Once you've met the deposit and trade requirements, Kraken pays the welcome bonus to your account within 14 days. You can track referral status in the Kraken app under the referral/gift section.

Troubleshooting

The referral field didn't appear at signup

Use the invite link directly (https://invite.kraken.com/JDNW/d6ypxcgy) — it attaches the referral without manual entry. If you already created the account without a code, it can't be added afterwards.

My bonus hasn't arrived

Confirm all four conditions are met — new account, verified, fiat deposited by bank transfer, and a qualifying non-stablecoin trade — all within 30 days. Payout can take up to 14 days after completion.

I'm in the US — does it work?

Yes in most states, but the referral bonus excludes Maine and New York. Your friend must live in the same country as you.

FAQ
The Kraken referral code is rfqr7jtt. Enter it in the referral field when you create your account, or sign up through the invite link, to attach your signup to the bonus and claim up to $75 in welcome rewards after you fund and trade.
Kraken's referrals page advertises up to $75 for both you and the friend you invite. Kraken's help center documents a fixed base bonus ($20) per qualifying signup; the exact reward and the deposit/trade amount you must reach are shown inside your Kraken app, and can vary by region and current promotion.
No. Kraken does not offer a $500 referral bonus. Any page advertising one is inflating the figure to win clicks. The real reward is the amount Kraken shows in your app when you sign up — treat larger claims as a signal that the rest of the page may be unreliable.
Four things: (1) sign up with the code or invite link as a brand-new user, (2) verify your identity (KYC), (3) deposit fiat by bank transfer — not a debit/credit card, and (4) make one qualifying trade into real crypto reaching the amount shown in your app, all within 30 days. The bonus is paid within 14 days of completing these steps.
The referral bonus is available in a limited set of countries including the US, Canada, Australia, Brazil, and several EU nations. In the US it is available in most states but excludes Maine and New York. The friend you refer must live in the same country as you (or, in the eligible EEA, another eligible EEA country).
Yes. Kraken is a regulated, US-based exchange, so identity verification (KYC) is required before you can deposit, trade, or receive any bonus. Verification usually takes a few minutes.
No. The referral must be attached when you create a brand-new account — you cannot apply a code to an account that already exists. If you have never had a Kraken account, use the code or invite link at signup.
No. Buying or swapping stablecoins does not qualify. You need to trade into real crypto (for example BTC or ETH) to meet the requirement.
Kraken has operated since 2011 and is one of the longest-running, regulated crypto exchanges, offering spot trading, staking, and futures. As with any trading platform, the crypto you buy can lose value — the exchange being reputable does not remove market risk.
It isn't affiliated with Kraken. This is an independent site run by the operators of the referral code; we earn a share of Kraken's referral reward when you sign up through our links, at no extra cost to you.
