How to Manage Your Assets in Your OKX Wallet (App)

·

Managing your digital assets securely and efficiently is essential in today’s fast-evolving Web3 landscape. The OKX wallet offers a powerful, user-friendly solution for handling cryptocurrencies across multiple blockchains—all from a single interface. As a non-custodial, decentralized multi-chain wallet, OKX gives you full control over your funds while supporting seamless interactions with decentralized applications (DApps), cross-chain swaps, NFTs, and yield farming opportunities.

Whether you're new to crypto or an experienced user, this guide will walk you through everything you need to know about depositing, transferring, and managing your assets within the OKX wallet app.


Understanding the OKX Wallet

The OKX wallet is designed to simplify your journey into Web3. It functions as a secure gateway that supports over 70 blockchain networks, including major ones like Bitcoin, Ethereum, Binance Smart Chain (BSC), Solana, Polygon, Avalanche, Tron, Arbitrum, and OKC. This broad network support means you can manage diverse assets without switching between different wallets.

Because it's non-custodial, only you hold the private keys—meaning no third party can access your funds. You create a secure on-chain identity using a seed phrase during setup, which also allows for multi-device synchronization across iOS, Android, and web extensions.

Beyond basic storage and transfers, OKX wallet integrates advanced features such as:

With these tools, you can interact with over 1,000 decentralized protocols directly from your wallet.

How to Deposit Crypto Into Your OKX Wallet

Adding funds to your OKX wallet is simple and flexible. Here are three reliable methods:

Method 1: Copy Your Wallet Address

This is the most common way to receive crypto.

  1. Open the OKX app and tap on Wallet.
  2. Tap Copy address to view your wallet address for the desired network.
  3. Share this address with the sender or use it when withdrawing from another platform.
Always double-check the network compatibility before sending funds. Sending tokens via the wrong network could result in permanent loss.

Method 2: Use the QR Code Scanner

For faster and more accurate deposits, use the built-in QR code feature.

  1. In the Wallet section, select Receive.
  2. Choose the cryptocurrency and the correct network.
  3. Display the QR code and have the sender scan it.

This method minimizes human error and speeds up transaction initiation.

Method 3: Transfer From Your Exchange Account

If you hold funds on the OKX exchange, moving them to your wallet is seamless.

  1. Go to Wallet in the app.
  2. Tap Receive, then select Withdraw cryptos from Exchange.
  3. Choose the crypto asset and withdrawal network.
  4. Enter the amount, confirm the address/domain, network, and fee.
  5. Submit the request and complete two-factor authentication (2FA).

Once confirmed, your assets will be transferred securely to your wallet.

⚠️ Important Notes:

  • Ensure the withdrawal network matches the deposit network on the receiving end.
  • Withdrawal amounts must exceed minimum thresholds but stay within your verified limits.
  • Network fees vary by blockchain congestion and are not refundable.

Sending Crypto From Your OKX Wallet

Transferring assets out of your wallet is just as straightforward.

  1. Open the OKX app, go to Wallet, and tap Send.
  2. Select the crypto and the network you wish to send from.

    If you hold the same token on multiple chains (e.g., USDT on Ethereum and Tron), make sure to pick the correct one.
  3. Enter the recipient’s wallet address or domain name and specify the transfer amount.

    If you’re logged into an exchange account, the system may auto-detect its receiving address.
  4. Choose your preferred token type under "Pay with" and review the estimated network fee.
  5. Tap Confirm to finalize the transaction.

After confirmation, monitor the transaction status in your wallet history. Most transfers are processed within minutes, depending on network speed.

Managing Your Cryptocurrencies

Customizing your wallet view helps keep your portfolio organized and accessible.

Add or Remove Tokens

You can personalize which tokens appear in your wallet balance list.

  1. Navigate to Wallet > Crypto > Manage crypto.
  2. Search for a token by name or paste its contract address.
  3. Tap Add to display it in your portfolio or Remove if no longer needed.

This feature is especially useful for tracking lesser-known tokens or filtering out irrelevant ones.

Add Custom Cryptocurrencies

Not all tokens are listed by default. For those missing from the official list:

  1. Go to Manage crypto > Custom crypto.
  2. Select the appropriate network where the token exists.
  3. Paste the correct contract address.
  4. Fill in token details like symbol and decimals (if known).
  5. Tap Confirm to add it manually.

Always verify contract addresses from trusted sources—fake tokens can lead to fund loss.


Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Can I use my OKX wallet without an exchange account?

Yes. The OKX wallet operates independently of any exchange account. You can generate a wallet, store assets, interact with DApps, and perform transactions without linking to OKX Exchange.

Is my OKX wallet truly secure?

Absolutely. As a non-custodial wallet, only you control your private keys and seed phrase. No one else—including OKX—can access your funds. Just ensure you store your recovery phrase securely offline.

What happens if I send crypto using the wrong network?

Sending assets via an incompatible network often results in irreversible loss. Always verify both sending and receiving networks match before confirming any transfer.

Does OKX charge fees for transfers?

OKX does not charge additional fees for sending crypto. However, all blockchain transactions require a network fee (also called gas fee), which goes to miners or validators—not OKX.

How do I connect my wallet to DApps?

From the DApp browser inside the OKX wallet, visit any supported decentralized application and tap “Connect Wallet.” Approve the connection request carefully—never grant permissions to untrusted sites.

Can I recover my wallet on another device?

Yes. Using your original 12- or 24-word recovery phrase, you can restore your entire wallet—including all assets and connected networks—on any device through the import function.
