What is a digital dollar?

A digital dollar refers to money in the form of a stablecoin, a type of cryptocurrency designed to maintain a stable value of 1 U.S. dollar. The most widely used digital dollar is USDT.

Key benefits of digital dollars like USDT:

  • Always equal to $1 USD
    1 USDT = 1 U.S. dollar, by design.

  • Global and fast
    Send, receive, or hold it instantly at anytime, anywhere in the world.

  • Secure and transparent
    Built on blockchain technology, making transactions traceable and efficient.

  • Popular choice
    Millions use USDT globally as digital cash for savings, payments, and trading.

With your OKX Card, you can store USDT in your wallet and spend it like regular U.S. dollars anywhere cards are accepted, with no IOF or hidden exchange rate markups.

How do I top up or fund my OKX Card?

Your card is linked to your OKX Pay balance. To add funds, you can:

  • Transfer USDT or USDC from your OKX Exchange account or another wallet, or

  • Buy USDT/USDC with BRL directly on the OKX Exchange.

Once your Pay balance is funded, simply approve it for use with your card, and you're ready to spend it.
