What the presets mean
The reviewed Kraken Pro Tier 1 spot schedule is 0.40% maker/0.80% taker. Gemini ActiveTrader’s base schedule dated September 1, 2026 is 0.60% maker/1.20% taker. These presets exclude stablecoin/pair exceptions, funding, spread and withdrawals until entered. Coinbase Advanced’s current account-specific rate must be supplied from its quote.
Execution fee = trade value × percentage ÷ 100. The tool compares a single execution and added cash/network costs, not trading returns. It does not estimate live market slippage or decide which platform is suitable.

The same rates across different amounts
At $100/$1,000/$10,000, Kraken’s base taker example costs $0.80/$8/$80, while Gemini’s base taker example costs $1.20/$12/$120. Maker examples are half those respective base taker amounts. This is an arithmetic normalisation, not a claim both accounts currently qualify or can execute the same price.
Funding can reverse the apparent ranking. Kraken’s listed $0.25 + 3.75% US debit deposit would add $37.75 on a $1,000 deposit, while its listed ACH deposit is free but has a seven-day withdrawal hold. A cheap execution is not automatically a cheap round trip.

A shared scenario is a dated assumption
Product labels are allowlisted and preserved separately from rates. Editing a preset rate makes it a custom assumption; it does not turn an old rate into today’s schedule. Kraken/Coinbase comparisons open with Coinbase’s account quote missing so an unrelated Gemini rate cannot silently fill its column.
