How to Set Up OKX for Cashback

Step-by-step guide to connecting OKX to Trade Reclaim and earning 30% cashback on your trading fees.

To set up OKX cashback with Trade Reclaim, you sign up to or connect OKX through Trade Reclaim's referral link, accept the invitation in the OKX app, then enter your OKX UID in your dashboard. Once verified, you earn 30% of your trading fees back as USDT. OKX is US-restricted and does not serve US residents.

Which setup path applies to you

The exact how to set up OKX flow depends on your account's history. The setup wizard shows your path:

Inactive account (6+ months): An OKX account with no recent activity can be auto-transferred to Trade Reclaim's affiliate.
Active account with significant volume: Connected via a form submission so Trade Reclaim can link it to your cashback.
Account already under another referral: Requires a 30-day cooling period before it can move to Trade Reclaim.

New to OKX? You simply sign up fresh through the Trade Reclaim referral link, which is the cleanest path.

Sign up or connect via the Trade Reclaim link

Open the OKX page on Trade Reclaim and start the setup wizard.
The wizard shows your OKX invitation code/link. Use it to sign up or connect (the wizard tells you which path applies).
In the OKX app, accept the invitation so your account is tied to Trade Reclaim's affiliate.

Note: Always use the invitation shown in the wizard. Trade Reclaim never asks for API keys, passwords, or withdrawal access. Only your public UID is used, so it can never see your balances or move your funds.

Find your OKX UID

Your UID is the public account ID OKX uses to report your trading volume.

Log in to OKX and open your account or profile area.
Locate the numeric UID shown on your account page.
Copy it exactly, with no spaces.

Enter your UID in the dashboard

Go to your Trade Reclaim dashboard.
Select OKX and paste your UID.
Submit to start verification.

Verification and when cashback starts

UID verification takes up to 48 hours. After that, your trading earns cashback. OKX reports your UID's volume to Trade Reclaim's affiliate account, Trade Reclaim earns a commission, and returns 30% of it to you as USDT.

Payouts are on-demand with a 20 USDT minimum, paid in USDT on ERC-20 or TRC-20, with one pending withdrawal at a time.

What you'll see in your dashboard

With OKX, your dashboard updates about 24 hours after you trade, not instantly. Once it updates, you see two daily figures: your total trading volume for the day and the total cashback you earned that day in USDT.

OKX reports this to Trade Reclaim as a single daily total, so you will not see individual trades listed, volume per trade, or a separate split for spot and futures. Your cashback rate is the same 30% whether you trade spot or futures, so OKX combines both into one figure. If you traded today and the dashboard still looks empty, give it up to 24 hours for the day's totals to appear. This is normal for OKX and does not mean anything is missing.

FAQ

Is OKX cashback a fee discount?

No. It is a rebate on fees you already paid. Trade Reclaim returns 30% of its affiliate commission to you as USDT.

Can Trade Reclaim access my OKX funds?

No. Only your public UID is used. It cannot see balances or positions, and it cannot move funds. OKX keeps full control.

Why can't US residents use OKX?

OKX is US-restricted and does not serve US residents, so this setup is not available to them.

How long until I see cashback?

Verification takes up to 48 hours. After that, your OKX dashboard updates about 24 hours after you trade, showing the day's total volume and total cashback.

Why don't I see my individual OKX trades?

OKX only reports a daily total to Trade Reclaim, so your dashboard shows the day's total volume and total cashback, not a per-trade list or a spot and futures breakdown. The 30% rate is the same for both, so this is expected with OKX.
