Four steps to judge whether it is worth it
A referral rebate returns part of your trading fees; it lowers cost and does nothing for the expectancy of your strategy. Rebate terms are published on OKX campaign pages with varying rates and validity.
What to prepare before you start
These five things cover almost every delay people run into: A trusted referral source; never register via unknown links.
The rebate rate and its validity period. The form of rebate, fee credit or cash.
A commitment not to trade more because of it.
Four steps to judge whether it is worth it
Treat it like a small discount coupon: Read the rate and estimate savings at your volume.
Check validity, since the post-expiry fee is your real long-term cost. Make sure the sign-up link comes from a trusted channel.
Keep savings separate from risk; never size up for a rebate.
Fees, limits and processing times
Numbers change from time to time, always confirm on the official fee page before you commit size: Referral rebates refund part of your trading fee and never change your risk profile.
Jumpstart and similar campaigns require staking during a fixed window, with token distribution after the subscription period. Regular spot accounts commonly start around 0.080% maker and 0.100% taker, with better pricing as OKB balance and volume grow.
Perpetual futures sit near 0.02% maker and 0.05% taker at entry level, plus funding settlements on a fixed schedule. Account levels run from regular tiers through VIP 0 up to VIP 8, set by 30-day volume and asset balance.
Fee discounts apply to both spot and derivatives, so consolidating flow into one account is usually cheaper.
The OKX-specific part
OKX runs referral rebates with rates varying by campaign; read the current terms. Follow page prompts for payout form and where to view it.
Frequently asked questions
Is the rebate permanent
Usually not; the post-expiry rate is your real long-term cost.
Does a rebate affect account security
The code itself does not, but phishing links do, so verify the domain.
Can rebates be withdrawn
Depends on form: fee credits generally cannot, cash rebates follow their own rules.
