## Summary

A US cryptocurrency exchange for buying, selling and trading crypto assets.

## About these alternatives

Kraken is a cryptocurrency exchange from the United States that lets people buy, sell, and trade crypto assets.

Searching for an African Kraken, or the Kraken of Africa, usually comes down to everyday usability in local markets: quicker cash-outs to local bank accounts, stablecoin-focused flows, and support that understands how [Cross-Border Payments](/tags/cross-border-payments) and on-off ramps work in places like [Nigeria](/countries/nigeria), [South Africa](/countries/south-africa), and [Ghana](/countries/ghana). Many people also prefer apps built for [B2C](/tags/b2c) usage, while some businesses still need [B2B](/tags/b2b) settlement features rather than pure trading.

## What to Compare Before Switching From Kraken

- **Local cash-out method**: check if you can convert crypto to your local currency and withdraw to local banks quickly, for example [Monica](/monica) supports transfers to 30+ Nigerian banks.
- **Stablecoin support and swaps**: if you mainly hold USDT or similar, prioritise products that emphasise [Stablecoins](/tags/stablecoins), such as [Divest](/divest) which supports stablecoin swaps.
- **Cross-border settlement currencies**: if you get paid internationally, look for USD, EUR, or GBP settlement options, [Divest](/divest) explicitly supports cross-border settlement in those currencies.
- **Speed of payout to banks**: compare promised cash-out speed where stated, [Cash-in](/cash-in) positions payouts to Nigerian bank accounts in about three minutes and [Mular](/mular) claims cash-outs within 99 seconds in Nigeria.
- **Your use case, trading vs spending**: some Kraken alternatives are closer to a spending and cash-out app, [Monica](/monica) includes bills, airtime/data, and virtual dollar cards alongside crypto-to-Naira conversion.
- **Investment breadth beyond crypto**: if you want exposure to other asset types, [Altify](/altify) offers private credit, gold, and tokenised US stocks alongside crypto.
- **Who the product is built for**: confirm it matches your profile, [Cash-in](/cash-in) calls out Nigerians, diaspora users, freelancers, and merchants, while [Altify](/altify) serves retail and institutional investors.

## Compare Alternatives by Country and Primary Need

- **For Nigeria-focused crypto to Naira cash-outs**: [Monica](/monica), [Cash-in](/cash-in), and [Mular](/mular) all centre on converting crypto to Naira and paying out to Nigerian banks, with Monica also covering bills and virtual dollar cards.
- **For South Africa-based investors who want more than spot crypto**: [Altify](/altify) is available in South Africa and combines crypto with stablecoins, gold, private credit, and tokenised US stocks.
- **For multi-country, cross-border settlement**: [Divest](/divest) is available in Nigeria, South Africa, and Ghana, and focuses on converting crypto to local cash, stablecoin swaps, and cross-border payouts in USD, EUR, or GBP.
