3. How do I verify my US debit card?

For your security, when you add a debit card as a payment method in the US, we may ask you to verify it before using it for deposits and payments. After you add the card, we'll place a small pending deposit for a random amount between $0.01 and $1.99. To verify your card, do the following:

  1. Go to your bank's website or mobile app and open your card's transaction history.

  2. Find the transaction. It'll appear in your transaction history as a pending DEBIT AUTHORIZATION.

  3. Enter the exact amount from your online bank account on the card verification screen.

  4. Verify to complete the card verification process.

We'll cancel this pending deposit in about an hour and remove the card from your account if you have not verified within this time. If you leave our app or website during the verification, you can continue the verification process from Buy Crypto or in the settings from the manage payment section.

While transactions are available for 1 hour, banks need more time to cancel the pending deposit. It may take up to 14 days to remove from your statement.

4. Why am I receiving an error when adding a card?

If you're experiencing difficulty with adding your card, please make sure the card details you entered are accurate. If you're still having issues, contact us at us.support@okx.com for assistance. You will be prompted during the add card process to do extra authentication via a small micro charge.

5. Why am I receiving an error when completing a transaction with my card?

6. I received a verification code while trying to complete a transaction. Where do I get this code from?

This code is generated by the issuing bank and is part of the 3-D secure authentication process, which helps to keep your card secure. You can enter the code you received from your bank to complete the transaction.

7. Do I still get charged if the transaction fails?

No, there's no fee charged if a transaction doesn't go through. If this occurs, please contact us at us.support@okx.com for assistance.
