What it is and who it suits

A full-service exchange ranked second by volume on CoinGlass, with deep futures and spot liquidity and its own Web3 wallet. Best for traders who mainly trade major-coin futures and also use on-chain features.

How it differs from the others

OKX comes with a 20% auto-rebate, plus exclusive OKX rewards and promotions through support. Its 0.08% spot maker fee is slightly below the usual 0.1%.

Common pitfalls

  • The referral code can only be entered when the account is created; it cannot be added or changed later.
  • If you rebind through the 180-day idle recall, do not log in, deposit or trade while you wait, or the clock restarts.
  • The official rebind request typically requires the account to be older than 90 days with trading volume over the last 90 days below a threshold; it is reviewed by the system, so approval is not guaranteed, and leaving the account idle for one to two months first helps.

How existing users rebind

OKX has three rebind routes, in order: recall after 180 days idle, the official rebind request, and — for users outside mainland China — closing the phone number and email to release the KYC. If none work, contact support. Full steps are in the rebind guide.

What you actually get back: three monthly volumes

At the OKX futures taker fee of 0.05%, this is the monthly fee, the rebate returned through Fee Otter and the net fee after rebate for 100K, 1M and 10M USDT of futures volume a month.

What you actually get back: three monthly volumes
Monthly futures volumeFeeBack via Fee OtterNet fee
100K USDT 50 10 40
1M USDT 500 100 400
10M USDT 5,000 1,000 4,000

Over a year, 1M USDT of futures volume a month returns about 1,200 USDT.

All volume is priced at the taker rate, excluding platform-token discounts and funding. A higher maker share lowers the fee, and the rebate scales with the fee actually paid.
