What Are Fee Rebate Cards?
Fee rebate cards are promotional rewards that function as trading fee cashback. When you trade on OKX and incur fees, these cards cover part or all of those costs, effectively giving you zero-fee trading up to the card’s value.
Here’s how they work:
- Each card has a value of 100 USDT.
- Trading fees are deducted from the card balance in real time.
- The equivalent amount is credited back to your funding account the next day.
This system allows traders to reduce costs while gaining hands-on experience with advanced trading tools and markets.

When Will You Receive Your Rebate Cards?
Your first 100 USDT rebate card is issued automatically within 20 minutes of successful enrollment. You’ll receive a confirmation via email and in-app notification, including details like:
- Card value
- Expiry date
- Usage terms
Subsequent rebate cards are issued only after you’ve fully used the current 100 USDT balance. Each new card also arrives within 20 minutes of usage, ensuring uninterrupted zero-fee trading.
The rebated amount is credited to your funding account daily, so always maintain sufficient funds to continue trading while waiting for the next day’s payout.
Why Are Rebate Cards Released After Use?
OKX releases new rebate cards only after the previous one is fully utilized to:
- Promote fair access across more users
- Extend the benefits of zero-fee trading to a broader community
- Encourage active participation rather than hoarding
This model supports a sustainable promotion that gives more crypto enthusiasts a chance to explore OKX’s platform without upfront cost barriers.
Troubleshooting: Didn’t Receive Your Rebate Card?
If you've completed all steps but haven't received your first rebate card within 24 hours, follow this checklist:
✅ Confirmed your account registration
✅ Completed identity verification
✅ Clicked Join Now and saw the status change to Joined
If all conditions are met and the card still hasn’t arrived:
- Double-check your email (including spam folder)
- Log into your OKX app and review notifications
- Contact OKX Customer Support immediately for assistance
Delays beyond 24 hours are rare but can occur due to technical issues—prompt support ensures quick resolution.
Maximum Rebate Per User
Each participant can receive up to 2,000 USDT in total trading fee rebates, distributed across 20 individual rebate cards of 100 USDT each.
To qualify for each subsequent card:
- Trade enough volume to use up the current 100 USDT balance
- Wait up to 20 minutes for the next card to be issued
This cap ensures wide distribution while rewarding active traders who engage consistently on the platform.
How to Use Your Fee Rebate Card
Using your rebate card is automatic—no extra steps needed:
- Place trades on spot or futures markets.
- Pay standard trading fees (which are then offset by your rebate card).
- OKX deducts the fee amount from your card balance.
- The same amount is credited back to your funding account the following day.
💡 Pro Tip: Keep enough balance in your trading account to cover fees until the rebate is processed. The cashback isn’t instant—it settles daily.
You can monitor your remaining rebate balance anytime in your account dashboard.
What Happens If Trading Fees Exceed Card Balance?
If a single transaction incurs fees exceeding your available rebate balance:
- The system will apply the maximum possible deduction from your current card.
- Any remaining fee will be charged directly to your funding account.
To avoid unexpected charges:
- Monitor your rebate balance closely
- Replenish funds when necessary
- Wait for the next 100 USDT card after exhausting the current one
This ensures continuous protection against fees without disrupting your trading flow.
Is There a Limit on Total Participants or Rewards?
Yes. The total reward pool for this event is capped at 250,000 USDT, shared among eligible participants.
Because new cards are issued only after prior ones are used:
- The promotion reaches more traders
- Resources are allocated efficiently
- Fairness is maintained across users
While individual rewards are limited to 2,000 USDT per user, this structure maximizes community engagement and platform adoption.
