Scheduled

The Kraken Spot Exchange Website and API will be undergoing maintenance as we upgrade our systems on Monday, March 9 at 07:45 UTC, and be unavailable for approximately 45 minutes. Please note that this is a rough estimate and the precise time when services return may change slightly. It is recommended not to place or cancel orders during this timeframe. Deposits and withdrawals initiated during the maintenance may be delayed. Sign-in and other non-trading related features will be operational. We kindly advise all our clients to plan ahead accordingly and make necessary account adjustments prior to the start of the maintenance. Following maintenance, markets will briefly enter cancel-only mode, and then post-only mode, before returning to full functionality.
