Understanding OKX Rewards: A Simple Guide
What types of rewards exist in OKX?
What are OKX rewards and how do they work? OKX offers multiple reward types to maximize your trading value: from trading bonuses and contract vouchers to rebate cards and tradeback vouchers.
Each reward serves a specific purpose—whether providing trading capital, protecting against losses, refunding fees, or letting you test strategies risk-free. This guide explains each reward type with simple examples so you can make the most of your OKX account benefits.
TL;DR
Trading bonus = margin credit for trading (profits are withdrawable, the bonus itself is not).
Tradeback voucher = crypto cashback as you trade (calculated differently for spot vs derivatives).
Contract voucher = one-time virtual funds for a single futures position.
Crypto = real crypto deposited directly to your funds account.
Rebate card = automatic fee refunds after you trade.
Earn APR boost = extra earnings when you lend crypto through Earn.
Bot voucher = risk-free bot trading trial (special campaigns only).
Loss insurance voucher = covers bot losses when you trade with your own funds (special campaigns only).
Trading Bonus
What it is: USDT credited to your trading account that you can use as margin for trading.
How it works: It's used automatically as trading margin for opening positions or to cover losses and fees. You can't withdraw the bonus itself, but any profits you make using it are yours to keep and withdraw.
Example: You receive a 50 USDT trading bonus. You use it as margin to open a futures position. If you make 20 USDT profit, you can withdraw that 20 USDT. The bonus itself was used as margin and can't be withdrawn, but your profits are fully withdrawable.
Tradeback Voucher
What it is: A tradeback voucher gives you crypto back when you trade.
How it works: Activate the voucher, then trade. You get crypto back based on your trading activity—up to the voucher's value. The calculation differs between spot and derivatives.
Spot example: You have a 50 USDT tradeback voucher with a 50% tradeback rate. You trade 500 USDT worth of ETH/USDT. You receive 250 USDT tradeback (500 × 50%). The tradeback is based on your trading volume.
Derivatives example: You have a 50 USDT tradeback voucher with a 50% tradeback rate. You open a position using 500 USDT margin at 10x leverage (total position: 5,000 USDT). You receive 250 USDT tradeback (500 × 50%). The tradeback is based on your margin used, not the full position size.
Contract Voucher
What it is: Virtual funds that let you open one perpetual futures position without risking your own money.
How it works: The platform gives you margin to open a single futures position. When you close the position, if your balance (minus the trading fee) is larger than the voucher's face value, the profits go to your trading account. If it's smaller, you don't bear any losses—the platform covers them.
Example: You receive a 100 USDT contract voucher. You use it to open a BTC perpetual position. When you close the position, if your balance is 120 USDT (after fees), the 20 USDT profit goes to your trading account. If your balance is only 80 USDT, the platform absorbs the loss and your own funds aren't affected.
Crypto
What it is: Actual cryptocurrency deposited directly into your funding account.
How it works: You receive real crypto (USDT, BTC, ETH, or any other token) that's fully yours to trade, hold, or withdraw immediately.
Example: You win a campaign and receive 10 USDT as a crypto reward. It appears in your funding account. You can trade it, transfer it, or withdraw it right away—it's yours with no restrictions.
Rebate Card
What it is: A rebate card refunds your trading fees automatically.
How it works: Trade normally, and your rebate card is automatically applied when you complete a trade. Your trading fees are refunded to your funding account within 48 hours. You can view the rebate in your asset history.
Example: You have a rebate card. You trade BTC/USDT and pay 5 USDT in fees. Within 48 hours, 5 USDT is credited back to your funding account. The rebate card keeps working on all your eligible trades until it expires.
Earn APR Boost
What it is: A voucher that increases your earnings when you lend your crypto through Earn.
How it works: When you use Earn (OKX's lending product), the APR boost voucher gives you additional earnings on top of the standard rate.
Example: You lend 1,000 USDT through Earn at a 5% APR. You have a 2% Earn APR boost voucher. You earn at 7% total (5% base + 2% boost) instead of just 5%, giving you extra passive income on your idle funds.
Bot Voucher (Airdrop Voucher)
What it is: Trial credit for trying bot trading strategies without risking your own money. These are distributed through special campaigns and occasions.
How it works: The platform gives you virtual funds to run a trading bot with preset parameters. If the bot makes a profit, you keep it. If it loses, the platform absorbs the loss—your account isn't touched.
Example: You receive a 200 USDT bot voucher during a special campaign. The system runs a grid trading bot with preset settings. The bot makes 30 USDT profit—you keep it. If it loses 50 USDT instead, only the voucher is affected. Your real funds stay safe.
Loss Insurance Voucher (Bot Loss Coverage)
What it is: Insurance that covers losses when you run a trading bot with your own funds. Available only in special campaigns or occasions.
How it works: You open a bot using your own money, but the voucher covers any losses up to its face value. The bot must follow OKX's preset settings (you can't change the parameters).
Example: You receive a 100 USDT loss insurance voucher valid for 7 days. You run a bot with 500 USDT of your own funds. The bot loses 80 USDT during the 7 days. The voucher reimburses you the 80 USDT loss. If the bot had made profit instead, you keep all the profit and the voucher simply expires unused.
Where to Find and Activate Your Rewards
All your rewards and vouchers live in My Rewards.
On the app, go to User Center > Rewards and Perks > Reward Center > My Rewards.
On the website, select More > Rewards
Most vouchers require activation before you can use them. Tap the Activate button next to each voucher. Some apply automatically once activated (like rebate cards), while others are used when you open a position (like contract vouchers).
Important timing:
Activation period: How long you have to activate your voucher before it expires (e.g., 30 days from distribution)
Usage period: Once activated, how long you have to use it (e.g., 30 days from activation)
For example, a trading bonus might give you 30 days to activate it, then another 30 days to use it. Check each voucher's details by tapping the information icon (ⓘ) to see both dates. If you don't activate within the activation period, you lose it permanently.
Each reward type is designed for different goals—whether you want trading capital, risk protection, cost savings, higher earnings, or trial opportunities. Check the specific terms of each claimed reward to see expiry dates and usage limits.
