Taxes differ by jurisdiction. In the US, keep a record of every transaction you make while you use P2P trading: date, amount, fee, and counterparty. Most local tax offices accept a simple spreadsheet.

Most users in the US follow the same path: create the account, verify identity, then choose a funding method that matches your local currency. The sections below break each step into small actions you can complete in one sitting.

Fees are the part most people skip. OKX publishes a fee schedule that changes by market, order type, and volume. Before you use P2P trading, read the current schedule so the cost is predictable, not a surprise.
