Crypto Trading Fees
Public spot fee schedules at OKX differ by customer setup, region and pair group, so no universal maker/taker rate is recorded here. The fee table below shows unknown rates, not zero fees.
| Recorded fee | Rate per executed order |
|---|---|
| Maker | Not confirmed |
| Taker | Not confirmed |
No universal rate recorded: the applicable region, account classification and pair group must be checked while logged in; excludes Convert, express Buy/Sell, derivatives and withdrawals
Provider fee information · Schedule checked .
OKX's Australian help FAQ says logged-out rates can differ from logged-in account rates. Find your rate under Assets > My trading fees; the Fees option on the order placement panel shows the selected pair's rates, and actual fees appear in order history. OKX's Australian fee notice lists separate retail and wholesale schedules, but a public URL's locale does not prove a schedule applies to every resident.
This section covers order-book spot trading. OKX Convert and express Buy and Sell use an all-in quote rather than separate maker and taker pricing. Verify your own account rates and pair rather than copying another region's headline rate. A fee schedule does not establish eligibility to use OKX in your country.
