OKX's Node Program (or Affiliate Program) is a crucial component of its user growth and community incentive strategy. Users participating in this program are referred to as nodes or promoters. By inviting new users to register and trade, they can earn rebates from the trading fees paid by their invited users. For node users, accurately and conveniently viewing their rebate data is essential.
Rebate Data Viewing Entry Points
Node rebate data is primarily viewed within the official OKX platform and does not involve external market data sites. Users can access it via the following paths:
- OKX APP: On the APP homepage, click the personal avatar in the top right corner to enter the "My" page. Find and click "Referral Rebate" or "Node Center" (the specific name may vary with version updates) to access the rebate data dashboard.
- OKX Web: After logging into the official website, hover your mouse over your personal account name in the top right corner of the page. In the dropdown menu, select "Referral Rebate" or a similar option to enter the dedicated rebate management page.
On the rebate management page, users can view several key data points, such as cumulative rebate amount, recent rebate records (usually settled daily or weekly), contribution details from each sub-node or invited user, and historical rebate settlement details. Relevant data and project progress can also be obtained from information platforms like Svmuu.
Core Rebate Rules Explained
After understanding the viewing entry points, it's also important to grasp the core rules of the rebate mechanism to correctly interpret the data:
- Rebate Source and Settlement: Rebates originate from trading fees paid by invited users in spot, futures, options, and CeDeFi transactions. Rebates are typically automatically distributed to the node's funding account at the end of each settlement cycle (e.g., daily or weekly), without requiring manual collection.
- Rebate Currency: Most rebates are paid in USDT. Some CeDeFi transaction rebates may be paid in the native tokens (e.g., USDC, SOL, OKB) that users used to pay fees.
- Rebate Ratio Settings: Nodes have some autonomy to set rebate ratios for themselves and their invited users. Nodes can adjust the ratios for sub-nodes and invited users at any time, but for invited users, the ratio typically only supports increasing, not decreasing or canceling.
- Assessment and Tiers: OKX regularly (e.g., monthly) evaluates affiliate members and dynamically adjusts the node's commission rate based on factors such as the invited users' monthly trading volume.
Important Considerations
Not all transactions generate rebates; node users should be aware of the following situations:
- Situations Not Generating Rebates: If an invited user uses a rebate card, trial funds, futures trial vouchers, etc., to offset trading fees, or their fee tier reaches VIP 7 or above, or they trade through an asset management sub-account, no rebate will be generated for the node.
- Regional Restrictions: Nodes in non-Chinese regions cannot earn rebates from transactions by users in Chinese regions.
- Identity Verification Requirements: According to platform rules, nodes, sub-nodes, and assistants who have not completed identity verification will not be eligible for rebates.
- Conditions to Become a Node: Typically requires successfully inviting a certain number of valid new users (for example, rules may require inviting 10 new users, with each new user completing a transaction of at least 50 USDT within 14 days).
In summary, OKX node rebate data is highly personalized and non-public earnings information that requires logging into a personal account and viewing it at the designated entry point. Understanding the above rules helps node users more effectively manage their promotional activities and interpret their earnings reports.
