Before You Register
Four Things to Check Before Opening an Account
Do not register based on a promotional headline alone. Confirm referral attribution, regional availability, identity requirements and transfer conditions first.
Verify the Rebate in Your Account
OKX’s Affiliate FAQ states that an invitee’s rebate rate can range from 0% to 20%. Confirm the actual terms attached to the OKDCC link on the sign-up page and in My Rewards.
Check Regional Access and KYC Rules
Available products and accepted documents may differ by jurisdiction. Enter details that match your valid identification and complete verification using the latest version of the app.
Match the Network Before Every Transfer
If you decide to transfer assets, compare the asset, network, address and Memo/Tag at both ends. Consider a small test only after checking minimum deposits and fees; it does not eliminate all transfer risks.
Understand Product and Leverage Risk
Derivatives and margin trading can lead to rapid losses and forced liquidation. Maximum leverage varies by product, jurisdiction and account, so do not rely on one fixed figure.
Before creating a new account, check the code and displayed terms on the registration screen. Whether an existing account can change its affiliate relationship depends on regional and account eligibility and OKX approval rules; confirm with official customer support.

Quick Start
How to Get Started with OKX
Account creation, identity verification and security setup are separate from depositing assets. The sign-up guidance below does not require a deposit or a trade. Check eligibility and the current screens for your residence, account and app version.
Check eligibility and the official screen
First check eligibility for your place of residence, then open the registration screen in the official app or at okx.com directly.
Create the account; check an optional code
Create the account using your own information. A referral code is optional; if you use one, check it and the displayed terms before completing registration.
Complete Identity Verification
Use accurate personal details and a valid ID. Submit a selfie and proof of address if requested.
Set security; check before a transfer
Set up two-factor authentication and withdrawal security first. A deposit is a separate asset transfer. If a transfer is needed, check the asset, network, address, Memo/Tag, minimum deposit and fees.
Fees
How OKX fees work
Trading fees depend on the product, account tier and maker/taker execution. A limit order does not guarantee a maker fee. Check the rate displayed in your account before submitting an order.
Derivatives may incur funding fees separately. Spread, slippage and withdrawal costs are different from trading fees; a rebate does not necessarily cover them.
Referral & Fees
OKDCC and applicable conditions
A “20% rebate” does not mean that the trading fee rate falls by 20 percentage points. It means that 20% of eligible trading fees would be returned under the applicable rebate terms.
Check code attribution before completing registration. Use the separate routes below for the assigned rate and payout records. A code in a link does not establish your actual rate or duration.
Main menu → User Center → My RewardsMenu → Campaign center → My rewards
If eligible trading fees total 10 USDT, the calculated rebate would be 2 USDT. Your account page remains the final reference for eligible trades, credited amounts and exclusions.
| What to Check | Where to Check · Important Note |

Security & Transfers
Commonly Missed KYC and Transfer Checks
Match Your Account Details to Your ID
Your name, date of birth, country of residence and other details should match your supporting documents. Blurry or cropped images, expired IDs and an obstructed face can delay or prevent verification.
Verify Both the Address and Network
The same asset may exist on several networks. Confirm that both platforms support the same network, then recheck the first and last characters of the copied address and any memo or tag.
Check the Other Platform’s Current Rules
Supported counterparties, transfer limits and additional verification steps can change. Review the current notices of both the sending and receiving platforms immediately before transferring.
Avoid Phishing and Impersonation
Check the official domain in the address bar and be cautious with search ads or links received through messaging apps. Never share a password, authentication code or wallet seed phrase.
Regional rules: Availability and transfer requirements vary by jurisdiction. Before sending funds, confirm that both platforms support the asset and network, and review any account-ownership, beneficiary-information or Travel Rule requirements that apply to your location.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Must I deposit assets before following the sign-up guide?
Account creation, KYC and security setup are different from depositing assets. This page’s sign-up guidance does not require a deposit or a trade. Actual service access depends on residence, account and verification conditions. If you choose a service that needs an asset transfer, separately check supported assets, networks, minimum amounts and costs.
Does everyone receive 20% when signing up with OKDCC?
The same rate does not apply to every account. According to the OKX Affiliate FAQ, an invitee’s rebate rate can range from 0% to 20%. Check your assigned rate and records in My Rewards. The displayed terms may vary by region, account and campaign.
Can I add a referral code to an existing OKX account?
Adding a code or changing an affiliate relationship for an existing account depends on regional and account conditions. OKX describes an invitation, application and approval process for existing users in certain regions, but it is not available to every account. Ask official customer support about your eligibility and procedure. Do not bypass restrictions by deleting and recreating accounts or inviting yourself through multiple accounts.
Do I need KYC to use OKX?
OKX’s official guidance requires identity verification for individual-account use and states that trading, deposits and withdrawals are available after verification. Detailed requirements and product availability may vary by region.
Does Proof of Reserves make assets completely safe?
No. Proof of Reserves is a transparency mechanism that verifies account assets and reserve holdings at a specific point in time. It does not eliminate market, account-security, operational, regulatory, third-party custody or on-chain risks, and it does not guarantee principal.
