OKX Opens U.S. Card Applications… 0% Fees on Purchases and International Transactions

OKX has opened applications for its stablecoin-backed payment card to eligible customers in select U.S. states and territories, with 0% fees on purchases and foreign transactions, per U.S. customer guidance updated October 30. Massachusetts, New York, and the territories of American Samoa, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands are excluded, though the full list of eligible states was not disclosed. Applicants must complete exchange-level KYC, maintain an active OKX Pay account, and pass a pre-screening at the time of application; approved users receive a virtual card instantly. The move extends OKX's U.S. retail push into payments, a competitive arena where Coinbase and Crypto.com already issue cards. Watch for the full state rollout list, physical card availability, and any rewards or spending-limit details as OKX scales the program.
