How to Transfer Crypto from Coinbase to OKX
Before starting, ensure both your OKX and Coinbase accounts are verified under your legal name.Here’s how to transfer your crypto step by step:
Log in to your Coinbase account via the app or website.
Tap Transfer → Send crypto from your portfolio page.
Select the cryptocurrency you want to transfer to OKX (e.g., BTC, ETH).
In your OKX app, go to Deposit → Select crypto and copy the deposit address for that coin.
Return to Coinbase and paste the copied OKX deposit address in the withdrawal section.
Enter the amount you want to send.
Double-check that the wallet address and network match (e.g., ERC20 vs. TRC20).
Confirm the withdrawal on Coinbase and complete any 2FA or identity steps.
Some transfers may prompt for additional information, such as the source platform and sender name - complete these if required.
Log in to OKX and check your Deposit History to verify receipt.
Transfers typically complete within minutes, but may take up to three business days depending on network congestion and compliance checks.
USDG Deposit Match Campaign: Earn Up to $300 in Rewards
Want to make your deposits go further? During the limited-time USDG Deposit Match campaign, eligible users can receive a 10% match in USDG rewards - up to $300 total when they transfer or deposit funds into OKX. Here’s how you can qualify:
Scenario 1: Moving existing crypto to OKX
If you already hold crypto on another exchange like Coinbase, Binance.US, or Kraken:
Transfer your crypto (e.g., BTC, ETH, USDT) to your OKX U.S. account.
Once your assets arrive, convert your crypto to USDG within the OKX app.
The amount of USDG you hold after conversion will be used to calculate your 10% match — up to a maximum of $300 in USDG rewards.
Scenario 2: Funding with fiat (USD deposits)
If you’re starting fresh or funding with U.S. dollars:
Deposit funds via ACH bank transfer or other supported fiat methods.
Use those funds to buy USDG directly on OKX.
The USDG you purchase qualifies for the 10% match reward (up to $300).
You’ll also continue to earn up to 4.1% APY on your USDG when you hold it on OKX.
Scenario 3: Already have USDG elsewhere
If you’re already holding USDG on another wallet or platform:
Simply transfer your USDG to your OKX account.
As long as the funds arrive during the campaign period (15 Oct - 7 Nov), you’ll receive the 10% USDG match reward, up to $300.
You’ll also automatically begin earning up to 4.1% APY on your balance once held on OKX.
How It Works
The campaign match is calculated based on your net new USDG holdings on OKX during the campaign period (15 Oct - 7 Nov).
Rewards are credited in USDG once eligibility is verified.
To remain eligible, you must hold your USDG on OKX for the required holding period (details available in-app).
Example: If you move or purchase $2,000 worth of USDG during the campaign, you’ll receive $200 in USDG rewards (10% match). If you deposit $3,000 or more, you’ll receive the maximum $300 reward.
