Kraken Ramp FAQ

Kraken Ramp lets companies add crypto purchases directly into their apps or websites. Instead of sending users to an exchange, businesses can embed a simple window that allows customers to buy crypto using cards or their Kraken balance.

Kraken handles the heavy lifting behind the scenes, including onboarding, KYC, payments, liquidity, and transaction execution. Once the purchase is complete, the crypto is delivered straight to the user’s wallet.

It’s designed for any company that wants to offer crypto buying without building their own infrastructure.

Kraken Ramp is built for:

• Fintech platforms
• Wallet providers
• Web3 applications
• Marketplaces
• Payment platforms
• Institutional and B2B2C products
• OnRamper

If you want to offer crypto purchases to your customers without managing liquidity, compliance, or payments, Kraken Ramp is designed for you.

United States: CT, DE, MA, NH, NJ, PA, RI, VT only. 

Additional regions will be added soon. 

Kraken Ramp supports plug-and-play integration, including:

• Embedded iFrame checkout
• Popup checkout flows
• Partner aggregators (e.g. Onramper)
• Merchants can embed Kraken ramp directly into their website or app, keeping users inside their product from start to finish.

• Debit cards
• Apple and Google Pay

Most merchants can go live within days, not months. Kraken Ramp minimizes operational lift by providing:

• Unified API and SDK
• Pre-built checkout flows
• Managed compliance and payments
• No need to build or maintain your own on-ramp infrastructure.

Crypto is delivered directly to the wallet address provided by the customer during checkout. Kraken Ramp does not custody funds.
