We've integrated with PayPal to simplify crypto access across Europe

We're pleased to announce that we've integrated PayPal as a payment method on our platform, making crypto access and payments more accessible to customers across Europe.

Customers across the European Economic Area (EEA) can fund crypto purchases on OKX directly using any available funding source supported by PayPal, including your PayPal Balance, linked bank account, debit card or credit card, with no extra setup required.

Key features:

  • Frictionless funding: Pay for crypto or fund your balance using your PayPal Balance, linked bank account, debit card or credit card directly through OKX

  • Trusted platforms: Pay with PayPal on OKX and enjoy the simplicity of a payment method you know and trust

  • Localised to your needs: Available across the EEA and aligned with OKX’s MiCA-compliant framework for regulated digital asset services

  • Seamless customer experience: Easily link PayPal account to our platform, benefit from instant purchases or deposits, with easy onboarding

To celebrate the launch, we are also running a limited-time campaign: for one month, we are waiving all fees on crypto purchases and deposits made through PayPal. This offer is exclusively available to OKX's EEA users, and it is our way of showing appreciation for the European community and making crypto onboarding as seamless as possible.

This collaboration aligns with our broader strategy to localise our product experience and respond to strong user demand for convenient, trusted payment options. As one of Europe’s most recognised digital payment brands, PayPal makes crypto access on our platform faster, easier, and more intuitive.

The PayPal integration builds on OKX’s recent MiCA license registration in Europe, which laid the foundation for deepening its presence in key markets across the continent. Today’s announcement is part of a broader initiative and underscores our commitment to providing regulated, localized services to customers in the region.

Availability of this Service is limited to the European Union. It is not offered to customers residing outside the EU.
