OKX fee example (reference snapshot)

Using our editorial reference snapshot (base-tier taker, no VIP or token discounts): 10,000 USDT of monthly spot volume × 0.10% ≈ 10 USDT; 100,000 USDT of monthly futures volume × 0.05% ≈ 50 USDT.

Maker share, VIP tier, spread, slippage, funding and transfer fees change the real cost. Subtract a rebate only after your official account confirms eligibility.

Frequently asked questions

What are OKX's trading fees?

Our editorial reference snapshot is 0.10% spot and 0.05% futures (base-tier taker). Actual rates vary by VIP tier, maker/taker and region; the official fee page and your account control.

Is OKX safe?

No exchange is risk-free. Review any official proof-of-reserves page, enable a passkey or two-factor authentication and an anti-phishing code, use only the official domain, and avoid keeping all assets on one platform long term.

What is the OKX referral code?

Our OKX referral code is WLFI47. Confirm it appears before you submit signup; see the referral page for where to enter it, existing accounts and rebate checks.

From signup to the first trade

Check the products and regional terms offered by the official service, then verify attribution, account security and funding network. Test with an affordable amount and record quote, fill price and fees. Before withdrawing, check destination, network, minimum amount and charge.

For an existing account, inspect current attribution and applicable offers. Clicking a new signup link does not establish a changed referrer. Record campaign rewards, invitee discounts, inviter commission and VIP fees separately.

Turn a rebate into a verifiable cost record

Separate spot and derivatives volume and maker/taker fees. Apply the rebate only to confirmed eligible fees. List funding, interest, withdrawals and slippage separately rather than multiplying every cost by one promotional rate.

Arithmetic example: fees paid are 50 USDT, eligible fees are 40 USDT and a verified illustrative rate is 20%. The rebate is 8 USDT, leaving 42 USDT in fees. Reconcile statements with credited rewards before comparing the path.
