OKX Launches Exchange and Web3 Wallet in Belgium
November 28 2024 - 3:00AM
OKX, a leading global crypto exchange and Web3 technology company,
today announced the official launch of OKX Exchange and OKX Wallet
in Belgium. Belgian customers can now access spot trading and
convert services for over 200 cryptocurrencies including more than
60 crypto-euro pairs, all with seamless Euro deposits and
withdrawals.
Through the OKX exchange, Belgian residents can access spot
trading, convert and earn services, and customer support in Dutch
and French through its app and website.
OKX is integrated with Bancontact, Belgium's most popular online
payment system, allowing customers to instantly deposit funds into
their accounts for free. Additionally, deposits and withdrawals
through SEPA are available to Belgian customers free of charge.
Itsme, Belgium's most popular identification app, can be used to
register an account, ensuring a smooth onboarding process for new
customers, after which users can access our products at competitive
rates.
OKX Europe General Manager Erald Ghoos said:
"Our ambition is an easy-to-use and affordable platform for Belgian
residents to build a portfolio of crypto assets. The launch of our
centralized exchange and OKX Wallet in Belgium is a significant
step in our ongoing commitment to this goal and to growth in the
region. We assembled a skilled local team, led by our Benelux
Regional Manager Roy Van Krimpen, and tailored our product to meet
local needs. The result is a comprehensive suite of crypto products
and services designed for the Belgian community, emphasizing
convenience, low trading fees, and effortless Euro
transactions."
The user-friendly OKX Wallet offers Belgian customers a gateway
to Web3, enabling them to maintain full custody of their own crypto
assets.
To celebrate the launch, OKX is offering a bonus of €20 in
bitcoin for new customers signing up from today until February 28.
A new user has to purchase at least €10 worth of crypto in a single
transaction within 14 days of registration to receive €20 in
Bitcoin. The mechanism works on a 'first come, first served' basis,
up to 50,000 users subject to terms & conditions.
OKX's launch in Belgium is part of the company's strategic
initiative to invest in building local presence and tailored
products in European countries. In June 2024, OKX launched its
exchange in the Netherlands, and in July 2024 announced its
intention to establish its regulatory hub for the EU in Malta where
we obtained our Class 4 Virtual Financial Assets (VFA) Service
Provider license in 2021.
Belgian residents interested in signing up for OKX are invited
to visit the OKX website or download the OKX app via the App Store
or Google Play and complete the verification process.
Additional tokens will be listed for Belgian customers on an
ongoing basis; check here for the latest list of tokens
