Kraken earns multiple Australian crypto award wins in 2026

TL;DR

• We took top honors across two major Australian award programs (WeMoney Cryptocurrency Awards and Finder’s Product Awards) reinforcing our position as a leading crypto platform for investors.

Australia’s top financial awards take notice

In a standout year, we were named ‘Overall Crypto Trading Platform of the Year‘ by Finder, one of Australia’s most trusted financial comparison platforms. This marks the third consecutive year of recognition from Finder, underlining our consistency in delivering value, performance, and reliability for Australian investors.

Finder’s Product Awards are driven by a comprehensive evaluation process, analysing platforms across a wide range of factors, from fees to features to user experience and security protocols. Our continued success reflects the strength of our holistic offering: deep liquidity, a broad asset selection, advanced trading tools and commitment to delivering a high-quality client experience.

The momentum did not stop there.

A strong showing at WeMoney

At the 2026 WeMoney Cryptocurrency Awards, we delivered another strong showing, securing:

• Winner – Best for Features (back-to-back wins)
• Winner – Best for Portfolio Insights
• Finalist – Best for Flexibility

WeMoney’s awards combine expert analysis with real user insights from a community of more than 1.4 million Australian investors, making these wins a powerful reflection of our performance for everyday clients.

Our wins are wins for Australian investors

Together, these recognitions highlight our ongoing commitment to building a platform that serves both new and experienced investors. From industry-leading security to powerful trading functionality and intuitive design, we continue to raise the bar for what clients should expect from a multi-asset investing platform.

“The awards are a clear signal that the bar for crypto platforms is rising, and we are committed to leading that charge for Australian investors,” said Jonathon Miller, Kraken General Manager for Australia and Rest of World.

“As we build for the future of financial services in Australia, our focus is simple: move faster, innovate relentlessly, and deliver a platform our clients can trust at every step of their investing journey.”
