1. Our Services

1.1 Overview of Services

The OKX Web3 Build platform offers a full-stack suite of tools, products, and services designed to help developers create personalized Web3 ecosystems, decentralized applications (DApps), and blockchain-based solutions.

Through application programming interfaces (APIs) and Software Development Kits (SDKs), developers can connect digital wallets to third-party blockchains and build applications that run on peer-to-peer networks. These services include infrastructure support for:

While OKX provides the interface for connecting to these tools, it is not involved in any transactions executed through the Services.

1.2 Service Components

The Services aggregate several key offerings:

OKX also provides an all-in-one developer portal for streamlined API management, monitoring, and optimization—giving developers centralized control over their projects.

1.3 API, SDK, and Solution Usage

Each API, SDK, or solution comes with its own documentation, user terms, and end-user license agreements. These are published by OKX and may be updated at any time.

You are responsible for safeguarding your API key and the passphrase used to generate it. If you lose your passphrase, access to your API key will be permanently lost. You must keep both confidential and never share them with third parties.

You accept full responsibility for all activities linked to your API key.

1.4 Digital Wallet Requirement

To use the Services, you may need to connect a digital wallet such as the OKX Web3 Wallet. You are solely responsible for any losses resulting from wallet usage.

Important:

Your wallet's private keys, mnemonic phrases, and files are not accessible to OKX. We do not store or manage them under any circumstances.

All transactions conducted via your wallet—authorized or not—are your sole responsibility.

1.5 Legal Use of Services

You agree to use the Services only for lawful purposes and not for violating applicable laws. This includes ensuring that digital assets deposited into your wallet were obtained legally.

You must also comply with all policies, announcements, risk disclosures, and operational guidelines issued by OKX.

1.6 Passwords and Private Keys

Due to the decentralized nature of blockchain technology:

OKX is not responsible for storing, recovering, freezing, or restoring your wallet password, private key, or mnemonic phrase.

You acknowledge that OKX bears no liability for losses incurred from using prototype products or services and will not compensate for any lost digital assets.

Gas fees incurred on third-party blockchains during your use of the Services are your responsibility. OKX does not cover these costs.

Additional fees may apply when interacting with DApps or platforms—such as transaction fees for NFTs or registration fees for events. These are considered Third-Party Fees, which you must pay directly.

2.3 Future Service Charges
