OKX perpetual and futures contracts use notional-based fees. Leverage increases your exposure relative to margin, so fee percentages apply to the full position size. Funding rates are separate from trading fees and apply to open perpetual positions.
Futures makers on OKX often pay less than takers, and top VIP tiers may offer maker rebates or zero maker fees. Scalpers and market makers should optimize for maker rates; directional traders using market entries should focus on taker costs.
Compare OKX with alternatives using our side-by-side comparison tools or the rankings on our spot and futures hub pages. Even small fee differences compound for active traders and algorithmic strategies.
