Every additional dollar traded earns an additional entry. Whether you’re buying, selling or converting – it all counts.
From Dec. 4, 2025-Jan. 5, 2026, the more you trade, the more chances you’ll earn. But it all starts with a single trade. And with over 110 prizes up for grabs, this holiday season’s trading just got a little more exciting.
For mobile users who have the Kraken app installed, opt in now. If you don’t have the Kraken app, get it here.
Here’s what’s at stake
- 1 Grand Prize: 3 BTC
- 10 Winners: $8,500 in BTC
- 100 Winners: $850 in BTC
Every dollar you trade increases your chances, all the way up to a maximum of one million entries per user. Buying, selling, and converting cryptoassets all count, but trades between fiat and stablecoins (or between stablecoins) don’t count.
How it works
- Check if you are eligible: The promotion is open to users in the U.S. (excluding FL, ME and NY), Canada (excluding Quebec), EEA and other eligible countries.
- Manually opt in: Eligible clients can opt into the promotion via the Offers screen on the Kraken mobile app. To find the Offers screen, tap on the rocket icon or the ‘Earn’ pill in the top-right of the Home screen, and scroll down to the ‘Offers’ heading.
- Trading = tickets: Every $1 you trade = 1 entry. Let’s say you buy $1,000 worth of ETH, that’s 1,000 entries. If you sell $1,000 worth of DOGE, that’s another 1,000 entries. Up to one million entries.
- You also don’t need to trade USD directly. Entries are based on the USD value of your trades, meaning you could buy €100 worth of your preferred cryptoasset, and still get entries to the sweepstakes.
- Maximize your chances to win: Keep trading until Jan. 5 to boost your chances.
How will I know if I won?
- After Jan. 5, 2026, the winners will be selected by random drawing from all eligible entries.
- The winners will be drawn by either Kraken or an authorized vendor.
- Eligible winners will have their verified Kraken accounts automatically credited with the balance of their associated prize.
- We will be notifying winners via email, but it is important to be aware that no action or response is required from the winner to claim the prize.
- Yes! Eligible clients can also participate in these sweepstakes for free here, though you will only receive a maximum of ten entries per client.
Opt in and trade as usual before Jan. 5, and you could walk away with 3 full BTC – or one of 110 other prizes. No purchase necessary. Terms & conditions apply.
