The world of digital ownership is evolving rapidly, and NFTs (Non-Fungible Tokens) are at the forefront of this transformation. As a leading Web3 platform, OKX NFT offers users a seamless way to engage with blockchain-based digital assets — from buying and selling to creating and transferring unique collectibles. This comprehensive guide walks you through every essential step of using the OKX NFT marketplace across both web and mobile platforms, ensuring you can navigate with confidence and security.
Whether you're new to Web3 or an experienced collector, understanding how to manage your NFT journey on OKX is crucial. From setting up your wallet to participating in exclusive NFT drops, we'll cover it all in clear, actionable steps.
Setting Up Your Wallet: The Key to Your OKX NFT Account
Unlike traditional platforms that require email or phone number registration, OKX NFT operates on Web3 principles, meaning your digital wallet is your account. No separate sign-up is needed — simply connect a supported wallet, and you're ready to go.
OKX currently supports three major plugin wallets:
- OKX Web3 Wallet
- MetaMask
- Phantom
If you don’t already have a wallet, here’s how to create one using the OKX Web3 Wallet:
- Visit the OKX website and navigate to the Web3 Wallet section.
- Click Connect Wallet, then select OKX Web3 Wallet and install the browser extension.
- After installation, click Connect Wallet again and choose Create Wallet.
- Set a strong password and confirm it.
- When prompted, click Back Up Now, enter your password, and securely record your recovery phrase (mnemonic) on paper.
⚠️ Never share this phrase. OKX does not store it — if lost, access to your assets cannot be recovered.
Once backed up, your wallet is active and fully functional for NFT activities on OKX.

How to Buy and Sell NFTs on OKX
Buying NFTs: Explore, Filter, and Acquire
To begin purchasing NFTs:
- Go to the OKX website or app.
- Switch to Web3 Wallet, connect your wallet, and open the NFT Market.
- Navigate to Market to browse available collections.
You can refine your search using filters such as:
- Status (e.g., listed, auction)
- Collection
- Blockchain Network (e.g., Ethereum, OKC)
- Category (Art, Gaming, PFPs, etc.)
- Price Range
Sort results by criteria like:
- Lowest/Highest Price
- Recently Listed
- Most Recent Bid or Sale
- Newly Created
OKX supports two primary purchase methods:
- Instant Buy: Purchase directly if the seller has set a fixed price.
- Place a Bid: Participate in auctions where bidding is enabled.
A standout feature is the shopping cart functionality, allowing users to add multiple NFTs and complete purchases in a single transaction — reducing gas fees significantly.
Selling Your NFTs: List Across Multiple Platforms
To sell an NFT:
- In the Assets Dashboard, go to NFTs > My Collections.
- Select the NFT you want to list and open its details page.
- Click List.
You’ll then choose:
- Which marketplace(s) to list on (multi-platform listing supported)
- Expiration date for the listing
- Asking price
Fees involved include:
- Gas fee (paid to the blockchain network)
- Service fee (0% on OKX’s own marketplace)
- Royalty fee (paid to the original creator; set by smart contract)
After reviewing all details, confirm the listing via your wallet.
Creating Your Own NFTs on OKX
Minting your own digital artwork or collectible on OKX is simple and accessible:
- Open the NFT Market, connect your wallet, and click Create NFT.
Choose your preferred blockchain network — currently supported chains include:
- OKC
- Ethereum
- Binance Smart Chain (BSC)
- Polygon
(More networks coming soon)
- Upload your file (image, video, audio, etc.)
- Enter a name, write a compelling description, and set a royalty percentage
💡 Why set royalties? By specifying a royalty rate (e.g., 5–10%), you earn a portion of the sale price each time your NFT is resold — a powerful way to generate passive income from your creations.
Note: Each mint requires a network fee (gas), and batch uploads are not yet supported.
👉 Turn your creativity into ownership — mint your first NFT in minutes.
Transferring NFTs Securely
Need to send an NFT to another wallet? Here’s how:
- From the Web3 Wallet, go to Assets Dashboard > NFT > My Collections.
- Select the NFT and open its detail page.
- Click Transfer, then enter the recipient’s wallet address.
🚨 Always double-check the destination address. Once confirmed, blockchain transactions are irreversible — sending to the wrong address results in permanent loss.
Viewing NFTs Across Multiple Wallets
OKX makes it easy to manage multiple wallets and monitor holdings:
Switch Between Wallets
- Click the dropdown arrow (▼) in the wallet interface.
- Select Wallet Management.
- Choose the desired wallet or account — your asset dashboard updates automatically.
Add Watch-Only Wallets
Use the Watch Wallet feature to track external addresses without full access:
- In the Assets Dashboard, click your current wallet name.
- Select Add Watch Wallet.
- Enter the public address or ENS domain.
This allows you to view:
- Asset holdings
- Network distribution
- Transaction history
It’s especially useful for tracking high-value accounts known as "smart money" — helping you spot trends before they go mainstream.
