The card offers a transparent fee structure with no transaction or foreign exchange fees, applying only a small 0.4% market spread on conversion. During launch periods, users can benefit from promotional cashback on USDG payments. The OKX Card is built for crypto-native users while remaining simple for everyday use and is issued in line with applicable European regulatory standards.

To another year of building
A letter from OKX Founder and CEO Star Xu
As the CEO of OKX, and a builder at heart, I'm proud to reflect on an extraordinary year of growth and progress. Despite challenges, 2024 was a year of focus, innovation, and resilience.

What is USDG?
What is USDG? USDG is a U.S. dollar–linked stablecoin issued by Paxos , one of the world’s largest and most established regulated stablecoin issuers, also known for PAXG , its gold-backed digital asset. USDG is designed to maintain a stable value relative to the U.S. dollar. Stablecoins like USDG aim to provide more predictable pricing than volatile cryptoassets, which makes them particularly suitable for everyday use cases such as payments, transfers, and card spending . By combining blockchain technology with price stability similar to fiat currencies, USDG helps bridge the gap between digital assets and real-world value. USDG can be held, sent, and used within supported applications, including OKX Pay and the OKX Card , without requiring users to manually convert assets before spending.

What are crypto recovery scams?
For most crypto traders, there are few worse scenarios than having your wallet hacked, losing access to your wallet, or having your digital assets stolen.
