OKX Trading Fees and Withdrawal Fees Explained (2026)
Understanding the full fee schedule on OKX helps you keep more of your profit. This 2026 guide breaks down spot fees, futures fees, withdrawal fees and VIP discounts, with practical tips to lower your effective trading cost.
Spot trading fees
Spot trading on OKX uses a maker/taker model. The base rates are:
| Order type | Fee |
|---|---|
| Maker (limit order that adds liquidity) | 0.08% |
| Taker (market order that removes liquidity) | 0.10% |
Fees are deducted from the asset you receive after each trade. Using limit orders (maker) instead of market orders (taker) is the easiest way to cut fees in half on taker-heavy strategies.
Futures (derivatives) fees
For USDⓈ-M and coin-margined perpetuals on OKX, the base schedule is:
| Order type | Fee |
|---|---|
| Maker | 0.02% |
| Taker | 0.05% |
Withdrawal fees
Withdrawal fees on OKX are fixed per asset and per network and cover the blockchain transaction cost. Approximate rates:

| BTC (Bitcoin) | 0.0001 BTC |
| ETH (Ethereum) | 0.0027 ETH |
| USDT (TRC-20) | 1 USDT |
| USDT (ERC-20) | 10 USDT |
Fees are reviewed periodically and may change with network congestion. Deposits, by contrast, are free.
VIP tiers & fee discounts
OKX rewards higher-volume traders with VIP tiers that lower both maker and taker rates. Tier is usually based on 30-day trading volume and asset holdings. Beyond VIP levels, you can reduce fees by:
- Paying fees in the native token for a discount (where supported).
- Using maker (limit) orders whenever possible.
- Taking part in zero-fee promotions on selected pairs.
- Referring friends to earn commission rebates on their fees.
How to reduce your effective cost
- Default to limit orders to pay maker fees.
- Hold and use the native token to pay fees.
- Consolidate volume to climb VIP tiers.
- Withdraw over low-fee networks (e.g. TRC-20 for USDT).
- Plan entries/exits to avoid over-trading, which compounds fees.
