VIP Earn Boost

Last updated: 1 October 2026
Availablity:

VIP Earn Boost is only available for VIP clients located in China, Hong Kong, and Singapore.

As a Kraken VIP client, you have access to promotional rates on select Earn assets through the VIP Earn Boost. These boosted rates are available through the Flexible Opt-in Rewards strategy, meaning you can allocate and deallocate instantly with no lock-up period.

Current promotion

From October 1 to November 30th, VIP clients can earn 6% APY on USDG through the Flexible (VIP boost) strategy. Here are the key details:

  • Asset: USDG

  • Rate: 6% APY

  • Strategy: Flexible (VIP boost), Opt-in Rewards

  • Deallocation wait time: Instant

  • Payout frequency: Once a week

  • Rewards paid in: USDG

  • Per-user cap: $3,000,000

If you are already participating in the Flexible Opt-In Rewards strategy, your APY will automatically update once the promotion begins.

  1. 1

    Open Kraken Pro and hover over the Grow tab on the top menu. Then click Earn.

  2. 2

    Find the USDG card in the "For you" section, or locate USDG in the "Ready to earn" table, and select Allocate.

    Note:

    You must have a balance of USDG for these options to appear.

  3. 3

    In the "Earn on USDG" pop-up, select Flexible (VIP boost).

  4. 4

    Select Continue.

  5. 5

    Enter the amount of USDG you'd like to allocate (this promotion has a $3,000,000 cap, but you can still allocate more), or select Max to allocate your full available balance.

    Review the details, including the deallocation wait time, payout frequency, and rewards asset.

  7. 7

    Select Allocate to confirm. You'll see a confirmation screen once your allocation has been initiated. Your next payout date will be displayed on the confirmation screen.

Since the VIP boost uses a Flexible strategy, you can deallocate your USDG at any time with no waiting period. To deallocate:

  3. Enter the amount you'd like to remove and confirm.
