Kraken (Crypto): Make First Trade Of $100 & Receive $85.5

Update 7/10/25: Topcashback is offering $85.5 when you make your first trade of $100+. Hat tip to reader Pitbox

The Offer

Direct link to offer

  • Kraken is offering $50 in BTC when you use promo code us50 and make your first trade

Our Verdict

Can try to go through a portal for another $30, but promo code isn’t listed so might not stack. Can always tell when crypto is pumping when we start seeing these types of deals.

Hey! I’m using the Kraken app to buy and sell crypto. Want to join me?

If you use my referral code or link to try it, we’ll both earn $75 when you trade $200 of crypto in the app!

I don’t think we have permission to post referral links in this thread, unless allowed by Chuck or Will…usually there is a separate post for that if allowed.  William Charles

I opened this through Cap One shopping for $220. I did the usual trick of visiting and then not doing anything and got an offer for $165 initially. The $220 came a couple of days later.

How long did the offer take to show up in pending with Capital One Shopping?

Did the same and signed up with the $220 offer and referral code for extra $75. How long did it take for yours to track?

6/25 – Account opened and $102 USDC purchased
6/26 – TCB shows transaction as pending (first showed $0 then later changed to $85)
7/13 – $85 now payable and able to withdraw

Really fast payout on this and pleasantly surprised. I was expecting to have to wait 3 months similar to other offers on TCB.

Lucky, mine is still pending at zero for 3 weeks and I have a ticket and TCB says wait a few months.

Got an email from TCB that the 85 is now payable…was suppose to be 14 weeks nice!

For those of you filing a claim against TCB, what do you put for order number? They sent me a message saying they need more info, order number is what they need.

They also have a referral program. Buy $200 of any non-stable coin crypto. Both parties get $75 in BTC after 14 days. Any plans to open a referral thread? Would love to post mine!

Not sure if it’s still going on, but a week ago I received a C1S email from Kraken about $200 in rewards for first time customers who complete a $100 or more trade. Got the offer 1 day after browsing the Kraken site.

I really would take advantage of the referral offer or a Cap1shopping offer over the topcashback. Like many others here mine never updated from $0 to $85 even after a ticket 3 weeks ago, they do.

I’d suggest doing the $75 referral so you don’t have to deal with topcashback shenanigans
