Eligible users can earn up to 4.1% rewards on USDG stablecoin balances and up to 10% on over 20 leading digital assets.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Arjun Sethi, Co-CEO, Kraken,\u00a0<\/strong> said, \u201cOur financial system has been stuck in the past for far too long. With Krak, we\u2019re taking a bold step forward to rebuild what we believe is the most critical layer of the global economy: how people move and use money. Krak puts financial freedom and global reach directly into the hands of our customers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Krak underscores Kraken\u2019s commitment to digital transformation and customer-centric design, offering advanced, scalable technology with robust security and a user experience that bridges traditional and decentralised finance.<\/p>\n<p>Future plans for Krak include the introduction of physical and virtual Krak cards, enabling seamless spending at millions of merchants worldwide, both online and in-store.<\/p>\n<p>This launch marks a significant milestone in Kraken\u2019s mission to redefine how money moves globally, empowering individuals and businesses with greater choice, freedom, and financial opportunity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":35851,"featured_media":568924,"parent":0,"template":"","categories":[11395,43159,41779,29445,11376,42764,11379,35279,11384],"tags":[11668,11649,12004,11438,11515,11418,50276,14715,12123,11416],"class_list":["post-568923","ibsi_news","type-ibsi_news","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-analytics","category-apis","category-banktech","category-cards-management","category-digital-banking","category-digital-payments","category-lending","category-loans","category-payments","tag-cross-border-payments","tag-digital-banking","tag-digital-lending","tag-digital-payments","tag-fintech","tag-instant-payments","tag-krak","tag-kraken","tag-online-payments","tag-usa"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v22.9 (Yoast SEO v24.1) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Kraken launches Krak money app for global payments and rewards<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Kraken has launched Krak, an all-in-one global money app designed to transform how individuals manage, move, and grow their money worldwide.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/ibsintelligence.com\/ibsi-news\/kraken-launches-krak-money-app-for-global-payments-and-rewards\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Kraken launches Krak money app for global payments and rewards\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"IBS Intelligence (IBSi) is the world\u2019s only pure-play Financial Technology focused research, advisory, and fintech news analysis firm, with a 30-year track record and clients globally.
