Troubleshooting

How to fix Kraken not working

Kraken is up on our end, so if it won't work for you, the problem is most likely on your side. Work through these in order:

Your browser tries to reach kraken.com over your own connection, right now. Nothing is sent to us or stored.

  1. Check Kraken status before retrying

    Open status.kraken.com in a new tab and look for trade or funding incidents, because a stuck order or failed deposit often clears after it resolves. Wait before you retry.

  2. Resync Kraken 2FA codes

    You see Invalid sign-in when your phone clock drifts, so the 6-digit code expires before it validates. Open your authenticator app and tap Settings > Time correction for codes > Sync now, then type the fresh code on the sign-in screen.

  3. Update Kraken Pro and clear cache

    If charts freeze or balances fail to load, stale app data causes the hang. You can fix it on Android with Settings > Apps > Kraken > Storage > Clear Cache, then get the latest build from the Play Store.

  4. Rebuild Kraken API keys

    When third-party bots still fail to place orders while the website works, a bad key blocks the connection. You can revoke the old key under Settings > API and make a fresh one for trade and query.

While Kraken is down: what to use instead

  • Official status page Check status.kraken.com before you reset anything on your end; it says whether the company knows about a problem and posts updates there.
  • Coinbase If you need to buy, sell or send crypto while the service is unresponsive, another large exchange usually gets the job done, though your balances do not move with you.
  • Binance Worth trying when the pair you want is unreachable on the usual app and you accept that you are now dealing with a second account and a separate login.
  • Kraken website in a browser When the mobile app crashes on launch or refuses the login, opening the site on a laptop often gets you to the same orders and withdrawal screens.
Your device

Fix Kraken on Windows, Mac, Android and iPhone

Kraken on Windows

Fix
To fix Kraken on Windows, clear your browser's cache and cookies or try accessing the site in an Incognito window. Disabling browser extensions or switching to a different web browser can also resolve loading issues.

Terminal
ping -c 4 kraken.comTest whether Kraken's servers reply
nslookup kraken.comCheck that Kraken's DNS resolves

Kraken on iPhone and iPad

Fix
Restart the Kraken app on your iPhone or iPad, and check the App Store for any pending updates. If the app still fails to load, try offloading and reinstalling it.
Check
Determine if Kraken is down by opening the Safari browser and trying to log into the Kraken web platform. If the website works, the issue is likely isolated to the iOS app.
Same time

Problems at the same time as Kraken

Since 15 October, Kraken's only spike in problem reports overlapped a spike at another service.

When several services get problem reports at once, something they share, such as a cloud host or a network, can be the real cause. Matching times alone do not prove it.

A spike is a sharp rise in problem reports from users, as the live pages showed it. Times are Central European time.

About

What happens when Kraken goes down

Kraken is a crypto exchange where active traders and businesses that use its API trade spot and futures markets and move fiat or crypto. An outage interrupts order entry, portfolio checks, deposits, and withdrawals.

During a broad outage, the first sign is often a failed or hanging login after two-factor authentication, and balances can show stale numbers while the markets tab refuses to load. Order placement comes next: open orders may not appear and new orders can be rejected, while the order book freezes even as prices move elsewhere. Deposits and withdrawals stay pending. Kraken problems are often partial or regional; you might trade normally while someone else hits a broken login or delayed API responses.

Questions

Kraken FAQ

Is Kraken down right now?

Look at the top. The status at the top of this page reflects whether user reports are above their usual level across 15-minute windows from the last 24 hours. You can check the official status page, then test with mobile data because home WiFi drops while the exchange stays up.

Why can't I log in or get past 2FA?

You miss the code when your phone clock drifts, so sync the time in phone settings and type the token from your authenticator app fast. Try email code instead. If you still loop on password, clear the browser cache because old Kraken cookies block the fresh login.

What should I do if my deposit or withdrawal stays pending?

Your bank transfer needs extra review while crypto moves wait for network confirmations before the balance updates. Check deposit history first. You can match the name on your bank account to your Kraken account and confirm you used the right reference memo for the bank transfer.

How do I get orders to fill when the market moves fast?

The order book thins when price jumps, so your limit misses while market orders slip past what you saw. You can widen your limit a bit and retry after the spread settles because the engine rejects stale prices in a fast sharp price surge. Wait, then retry once.

My Pro app keeps crashing or shows blank charts, what can I do?

If charts stay blank, your cached data often conflicts with the new feed. Force close the app. You can update the Pro app and switch from WiFi to data because weak signals freeze the order book and price charts on mobile phones.

How we track Kraken

The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for Kraken, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for Kraken, so a few complaints on a quiet day don't trigger anything, but a sudden jump well above normal does.

When reports climb well above normal, the status here changes to partial outage or major outage and the chart moves with it. This is separate from Kraken's official status page: user reports tend to show a problem early, while the official page confirms the cause. If the two disagree, check both.
