What happened

Between the Jul 6, 2026 and Jul 13, 2026 captures of Kraken's pricing page, Pulse recorded one change: Kraken Pro replaced separate spot and futures volume-based fee schedules with unified 'Cross-platform Fee Tiers': a shared 17-tier ladder (Tier 1-12, Pro 1-5) qualified by the best of spot volume, futures volume, or Assets on Platform (AoP). Entry-tier spot fees rose from 0.25%/0.40% to 0.40%/0.80% (maker/taker). Pulse files it as a packaging change (package change) with a neutral direction. The current page lists Kraken at 1% of trade value (instant buy/sell) and Kraken Pro at 0.25% maker fee (spot crypto, base volume tier $0+) + 0.4% taker fee (spot crypto, base volume tier $0+).

This is the first pricing-page change Pulse has recorded for Kraken. Kraken has been tracked since 2026-05-06.

In the same window Binance, Gemini, Folio, Xero and SumUp also changed their Finance & Accounting pricing pages. Those moves are listed further down, and the Pulse Agent can compare them side by side.
