The OKX sign-up bonus reached through the code CODE777 is a welcome package of up to $10,000 plus a trading fee discount of up to 50%. Both are upper limits. What decides how much of either you actually see is not the size of your deposit — it is the order in which the steps happen, and one of those steps is irreversible.
The sequence, and why it is not interchangeable
1. The code, at registration. This is the only irreversible step. The referral binds when the account is created. Miss it and every reward below becomes unreachable for that account, permanently.
2. Identity verification. Most reward tiers stay locked until verification completes. Doing it early costs nothing and removes a bottleneck that otherwise shows up later, usually at the least convenient moment.
3. Deposit and trading tasks. These unlock portions of the cap. Each has its own threshold and its own window. This is where the bulk of any headline figure sits.
Steps 2 and 3 can be done at your own pace. Step 1 cannot be done at all once the account exists.
What the caps actually describe
| Figure | What it is | What it is not |
|---|---|---|
| Up to $10,000 | Combined ceiling across several tasks | A payout, a balance, or a sign-up credit |
| Up to 50% | Maximum fee discount on top of the volume tier | A flat rate everyone receives |
The word doing the work in both rows is "up to". It is the difference between a programme description and a promise, and it is the reason a realistic expectation is far below the headline for anyone who is not already trading at volume.
A note on time windows
Several tasks are time-bound — a deposit within n days, a volume target within a window. Registering, then verifying weeks later, then depositing weeks after that, will quietly walk past windows that were already running. If you intend to use the programme at all, the compressed sequence is worth more than any individual optimisation.
Where the code goes
Collapsed, optional, below the password field on the registration form. Expand it, enter CODE777, submit. Or use the registration URL that carries it: okx.com/join/CODE777.
FAQ
What happens if I verify before entering a code?
If the account already exists, the code cannot be attached. Verification does not change that.
Do the tasks expire?
Several are time-bound. Windows and thresholds are set by the current campaign terms.
Is the fee discount also time-limited?
It applies while the account remains linked. Programme terms can change.
Where are the authoritative terms?
On the exchange's own rewards and fee pages. Third-party pages, including this one, describe the programme as advertised and can fall out of date.
Figures reflect the referral programme as advertised at the time of writing and are subject to change.
