Advanced Charts

The KuCoin exchange provides advanced market charts that come in handy for an in-depth analysis of one’s trading strategy. The charts are of different intervals and will allow you to apply any type of indicator to reach a conclusive decision.

You can also use the buy/sell wall to check the market depth before trading.

Trading Pairs

KuCoin’s main feature that gives it an advantage over other exchanges is that it provides a sheer amount of trading pairs on offer for tokens. In several cases, KuCoin has been the first Exchange to open a token’s path ahead of its competitors like Huobi.

KuCloud

KuCloud provides users with advanced technology for them to build spot and derivatives trading platforms. This helps to allow instant deployment. KuCoin offers this top-tier-white-label feature that has adequate liquidity and dedicated services to enable developers that wish to create trading platforms.

Fast Processing

If you are a trader, you understand how valuable it is to find a platform that takes the least time possible to process deposits, trades, and even withdrawals. KuCoin is that platform. Withdrawals take seconds, and if you are withdrawing a large amount, it may take some extra minutes. On the other hand, processing of deposits also takes a short time.

Affiliate Program

KuCoin also has a feature that allows you to earn from their referral program. If you choose to promote the Exchange, you will be given an affiliate link that you can share with friends, family, and other people you can connect with. All earnings from your referrals will be automatically collected to your main account after saving.

One unique thing about the KuCoin referral program is that you not only earn from your direct referrals, but also from the other people that will be invited by your invitee, and the cycle continues up to the third invitee. For those that you invite directly, you will receive a 20% commission, second-level invitees will earn you a 12% commission, and third-level invitees will earn you an 8% commission.

KuCoin Fees

It is important to note that KuCoin fees are charged based on your user level and class category on each level. There are four levels, member, Gold, platinum, and Diamond level. On each level, there are three classes L1, L2, and L3. For users in the member level, KuCoin applies a flat fee model where the taker fee and maker fee are the same. As you upgrade your account level, your transaction fees decrease, and the maker and taker fees begin to vary.

For withdrawals, KuCoin is unlike other exchanges that charge heavily. The Exchange has some of the lowest rates, and the fees vary depending on the coin you are withdrawing.

Trading Platforms

The KuCoin exchange has both a web-based trading platform and a mobile trading platform.

Web-based

The web-based platform has a user-friendly interface and design, which makes it ideal for amateur and even experienced traders on the Exchange. In terms of design, the platform has two UI designs, New version and old version. You can opt to use the Exchange while on the old version or use it while on the New version UI.

Regardless of which UI version you choose, you will find it easy to navigate and trade. The web-based platform also features some amazing trading and market analysis tools with charts and technical indicators powered by TradingView.

Mobile Trading

Unlike most cryptocurrency exchanges, KuCoin also provides its users with a mobile trading platform. The mobile app is available on Google Playstore and Apple store. The application has all the basic features one would find in the web-based platform. It allows users to study charts, execute trades, and track their trading history.

Generally, the mobile trading platform and the web-based trading platforms are nice and easy to use.

Storage

Instead of limiting its users to its wallet, KuCoin provides users with the option of using other wallets for storing their cryptocurrencies. This is powered by Arwen, which also allows users to settle trades directly to the wallets that they chose to store coins on.

Cryptocurrency lending

KuCoin also allows users to earn by lending out their cryptocurrency and receive interest. The interest rate varies depending on the coin that you wish to lend. It therefore goes without saying that you can also borrow some coins from other users.
