Who This Is For
Use this page if you are working through the security flow and want a faster read before taking the next action inside OKX.
Suggested Path
- First confirm whether the page is asking for new-device verification, unusual-login review, or extra email, SMS, 2FA or selfie checks.
- Then review any recent changes to your phone, browser, network, SIM card, timezone or login location.
- Complete the current email, SMS, authenticator or device-review steps in the order shown instead of jumping between multiple entry points.
- If the restriction still does not clear, collect screenshots, a timeline and your recent device changes before contacting support.
Checks Before You Continue
Review these points before moving on:
- new device
- login check
- right order
- OKX new device verification
FAQ
Does new-device verification mean the account was hacked?
Not necessarily. In many cases it is only a protection triggered by a new login environment.
Why should I avoid retrying on many devices?
Frequent switching can create more risk signals and may slow the review.
When should I contact support?
After you finish the required on-page steps and the status still does not change for a long time.
