A Personal account with Pro limits is the highest verification level available and includes the following benefits:

• Personalized deposit & withdrawal limits
• Access to Kraken’s Over-the-Counter trading desk
• Higher API limits

*Please note that you do not need a Personal account with Pro limits to use our Kraken Pro app. 

If you require the following services you will need to apply for a Business account:

• You would like to create an account on behalf of a third party. 
• You intend to use this account as a reseller of digital assets as a business.
• You intend to fund your account with a business bank account.
  

To open a Personal account with Pro limits (or upgrade your existing Starter or Intermediate account):

1. Please create a personal account at www.kraken.com, if you have not done so already.
2. Ensure you secure your account by adding Sign-In two-factor authentication (2FA).
3. Navigate to your username in the upper right corner of the page, and then select Get Verified.

4. You will need to verify your account for Intermediate limits as a first step. Once your account is verified for Intermediate limits and you have funded your account, you will have the option to verify your account for Pro limits.
5. Once you apply for Pro limits, you will typically receive a response from our onboarding team within 0-2 business days. Please note additional processing time may be required to approve your application, subject to additional information or documentation that may be requested.
