Frequently Asked Questions
Why can you change your referral code on OKX without deleting your account?
Because OKX officially accepts referral code change requests from eligible existing users. Your account must be at least 90 days old and have traded less than 75,000 USDT in the past 90 days.
A popup appears when you open the application link.
This means your account does not meet the requirements and the code cannot be changed. If you need another solution, please contact sigbtc support on Telegram.
Can I write something else for Reason for joining?
If your reason is written in English, that's fine. Clear statements like "I request a referral code change to receive exchange benefits." are usually approved smoothly.
What happens to my trading history or assets if I change the code?
Only the referral code changes; your assets, trading history, and identity verification remain the same. The payback applies to trades made after the change is approved.
