Can I buy Bitcoin on Kraken without verification?

Account verification is a crucial aspect of our operations, as stipulated by laws and regulations. This process involves confirming your identity and residential address.

Kraken is committed to maintaining the highest standards of security and compliance. We employ rigorous measures to prevent fraudulent activities and ensure adherence to Know Your Customer (KYC) and Anti-Money Laundering (AML) regulations in the trading of cryptocurrencies.

Our verification process is designed to cater to various user needs and risk levels. Depending on your requirements, we offer different tiers of account verification.

The Intermediate level of verification provides a balance between security and convenience. It requires a moderate amount of personal information and documentation, allowing users to access a wide range of features and services on our platform.

For those seeking higher trading limits and additional security features, we offer the Pro level of verification. This tier requires more comprehensive documentation and verification processes but offers increased benefits and protections.
