Should You Pay Fees for Deposits and Withdrawals?

·

At OKX, you'll only incur fees when processing on-chain withdrawals, while internal transfers and deposits remain fee-free. The withdrawal fee is known as a gas fee, which compensates miners as a reward for their work.

For example, withdrawing crypto from your OKX account triggers a withdrawal fee. Conversely, when someone (you or another party) deposits crypto into your OKX account, no fee applies.

Note: Fee-free deposits only apply to amounts exceeding the minimum deposit threshold listed on the deposit details page. Deposits below this threshold may require customer support assistance for proper crediting, potentially incurring additional fees.

How Are Withdrawal Fees Calculated?

The system automatically computes fees. The default formula for the actual amount credited to your account on the withdrawal page is:

Actual Account Balance = Withdrawal Amount – Withdrawal Fee

Alternatively, you can manually verify the calculation:

Actual Account Balance = Withdrawal Amount – Withdrawal Fee
