OKX Pay launches USDG earnings program: Enjoy up to 10% annualized return, with various OKX reward methods waiting for you to earn.

Holding US dollars today often means limited returns on your money. We believe your money should work harder for you.

Therefore, we are launching a new program for global users through OKX Pay, allowing you to earn up to 10% annualized return (APY) on your USDG deposits. Your first 10,000 USDG will earn you 10% APY, and all subsequent deposits will earn 5% APY. Over a year, the first 10,000 USDG can bring you up to 1,000 USDG in earnings, and every additional 10,000 USDG will earn you an extra 500 USDG.

USDG is a fully collateralized, USD-pegged stablecoin that allows you to earn yields while keeping your funds readily available for trading. No more missing out on market opportunities due to idle funds. This is a limited-time early bird offer: the first 10,000 USDG earns up to 10% APY, with annual earnings potentially reaching 1,000 USDG. This USDG yield program is part of OKX's diverse earning opportunities—from automatic rewards for trading accounts to on-chain earnings on the X Layer.

These three options give you true freedom of decision-making: whether you want instant liquidity, passive income, or on-chain flexibility, OKX's reliable and secure ecosystem guarantees it all.

Three easy ways to make money with USDG

OKX Pay

Earn up to 10% APY on your first $10,000 USDG deposit, and 5% APY on any amount exceeding that. Simply transfer USDG from your exchange account to OKX Pay, or directly exchange other stablecoins for USDG on OKX Pay. Rewards increase daily and are automatically distributed every Monday.

OKX Exchange

Simply hold USDG in your OKX exchange account to automatically earn up to 3.85% APY, available on both the web and mobile app. Rewards are paid out weekly, requiring no additional action.

OKX Wallet

Earn up to 3.85% APY on-chain by connecting your OKX exchange account to your OKX wallet. Rewards grow daily and can be claimed weekly. No lock-up required, no complicated procedures; your USDG is always ready to trade, transfer, or be used, while steadily generating returns.

USDG on OKX: Simple, Transparent, and Flexible

USDG is designed to make your digital dollar work more efficiently for you—securely and seamlessly within the OKX ecosystem.

• Flexible funding: While earning returns, USDG can be used for trading, staking, and transfers at any time.
• Zero-fee exchange: Free exchange between USDT, USDC and USDG without additional fees.
• Multi-chain support: USDG can be used on Ethereum (ERC-20), Solana (SPL), and X Layer.

Using USDG on OKX gives you complete control over how your funds earn and where they go.

USDG's unique advantages

USDG is issued in Singapore by Paxos Digital Singapore Pte. Ltd., a principal payment institution licensed by the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS). It operates within a clear regulatory framework for single-currency stablecoins, emphasizing security and transparency.

• 1:1 asset backing : Every USDG is fully backed by US dollar reserves.
• Fund segregation : User assets and operating funds are strictly managed separately.
• Independent review : Reserves are subject to independent third-party verification monthly.
• Clear redemption rights : Holders can directly exchange USDG for US dollar fiat currency.

This structure provides users with a regulated and transparent stablecoin option—combining the ease of use of traditional stablecoins with enhanced trust and accountability.

Born for open access

USDG can be used on multiple public blockchains, including Ethereum, Solana, and X Layer, with plans to connect to more networks in the future. Its open-source smart contracts are publicly verifiable and independently audited, providing security and predictability for users and developers. This multi-chain architecture allows USDG to be freely used in various applications both within and outside the DeFi platform, Wallet, and OKX ecosystem, truly achieving open circulation and efficient utilization of the asset.

OKX's unique advantages

OKX's USDG project revolves around a core principle: providing users with choice and confidence. Whether you want to earn yields through OKX Pay, hold your funds on the OKX exchange, or use them directly on the blockchain, you can enjoy transparent returns, regulatory protection, and the freedom to move your funds at any time. In the current market environment, reliability is more important than hype. OKX is helping to transform the crypto world from the so-called "Wild West" to the "Moderate West"—where transparency and choice become the new standards. OKX and USDG offer you a smarter and more reliable way to hold, earn, and use your funds.
