OKX has introduced a feature allowing users to deposit funds in their decentralized wallet directly from their credit card.
OKX, one of the largest crypto exchanges, has introduced a new “Buy with Card” OKX Wallet feature. Starting Tuesday, the OKX will enable users to link their Visa and Mastercard cards to their accounts and buy crypto directly from their decentralized OKX wallet.
The feature will be available on both iOS and Android apps and supports buying over 50 cryptocurrencies.
The move signals that OKX is moving towards providing a better user experience on its decentralized services.
The exchange says the new feature would “provide users with a seamless and secure way to purchase crypto” while “keeping full control over their digital assets.”
Together with the news on its wallet, OKX also announced more trading options for customers. On Tuesday, the exchange listed USDC-margined futures for BTC and ETH.
Moreover, OKX has enabled FLOKI margin trading, savings, and USDT-margined perpetual swaps on its web and app interfaces.
On the Flipside
- While the OKX Wallet is decentralized, the “Buy with Card” feature is not. OKX will manage payments and charge fees for the service.
- Since the FTX collapse, exchanges have started offering more self-custodial and decentralized solutions.
