Frequently Asked Questions
1. Why am I only able to select certain payment methods? There are two reasons why: a. The amount you have entered is lower than the buying limits of certain payment methods b. To comply with local laws and regulations, the payment methods available to you on your account will be limited to those that are appropriate based on the identity verification documents you have provided during onboarding to OKX.
2. Why am I encountering a "Buy unavailable" message? This means that our Buy services aren't currently available in your region. Stay informed for future updates, as more payment services are being actively integrated to enhance your experience.
