Crypto.news: Crypto exchange OKX rolls out services in Belgium to strengthen European presence.
OKX expands its European footprint with a launch in Belgium, featuring free Euro deposits through a partnership with local payment provider Bancontact.
Seychelles-headquartered crypto exchange OKX has launched its services in Belgium, offering spot trading, conversion, and a range of crypto services through its exchange and wallet.
Belgian customers now have access to over 200 cryptocurrencies, including more than 60 crypto-euro trading pairs, along with Euro deposits and withdrawals, the company said in a Nov. 28 press release.
The exchange says the expansion in Belgium leverages Bancontact, Belgium’s online payment system, allowing customers to deposit funds instantly and free of charge. SEPA withdrawals and deposits are also available without fees.

OKX Europe general manager Erald Ghoos says the launch in Belgium marks a “key step in our regional expansion, supported by a local team and tailored services that meet the unique needs of Belgian customers.”
The Belgian launch is part of OKX’s broader strategy to increase its presence across Europe. Earlier in 2024, the exchange debuted in the Netherlands and announced plans to establish a regulatory hub in Malta, where it secured a Class 4 Virtual Financial Assets license in 2021.
