We're increasing our Europe deposit match bonus pool to €50 million
Today we're increasing our European deposit bonus pool to €50 million.
The original allocation was almost fully claimed within 48 hours. That’s encouraging because it reflects what we’re seeing across the region: customers increasingly want regulated platforms with a complete product offering.
Customers who switch to our MiCA-licensed exchange can earn 8% back on new deposits, getting up to €20,000, paid every two weeks over a year. Expanding the programme is a direct response to the demand we've seen since launch, but it's also another step in our long-term commitment to Europe.
X-Perps gives customers access to crypto and traditional markets through a single regulated account. OKX Card turns stablecoin balances into everyday spending across Mastercard’s network. OKX Earn helps customers generate returns through staking and flexible yield. Together, they’re designed to make digital assets more useful, not just more accessible.
More and more, we're seeing customers actively choose regulated platforms. They want the confidence that comes with clear rules, but they also expect the products and user experience to match, and exactly what we've been building in Europe over the past few years.
Europe recognised earlier than most that crypto needed clear rules. While many jurisdictions were still debating whether to regulate the industry at all, Europe introduced a framework that gave companies confidence to invest for the long term.
We secured our MiCA licence in January 2025, followed by our MiFID II licence for regulated derivatives. Earlier this year, we also obtained our Payment Institution licence. Those licences matter because they allow us to build products that work together, rather than offering disconnected services.
The conversation is no longer about whether regulation will shape the future of digital assets. It’s about which companies invested early enough to build the right foundations.
Europe created one of the world’s clearest regulatory environments for crypto. We chose to invest early because we believed that’s where the industry was heading.
Today’s announcement reflects that belief. We’re increasing our European deposit bonus pool because more customers are choosing regulated crypto, and we’re committed to continuing to build the products they’ll need for the next stage of adoption.
