Everyday OKX custody habits in Poland: device limits, alerts and phishing codes

When people hear custody controls they think of withdrawal allowlists and sub-accounts. Those matter, but day-to-day control of an account also depends on smaller settings that decide who can sign in, how quickly you learn about activity and whether you can tell a real message from a fake one. These settings take a few minutes to configure and almost no effort afterwards. This guide focuses on three of them for OKX users in Poland: limiting trusted devices, turning on the right alerts, and setting an anti-phishing code, then tying them together with a short weekly habit.

Keep the trusted device list short

Open the security section and review every device that has signed in recently. Remove phones you sold, laptops you replaced and any browser session on a computer you no longer use. Aim for a short list of devices that only you control. When you buy a new phone, add it, test it and then remove the old one the same day, rather than letting old entries accumulate for months.

Turn on alerts you will actually notice

Enable notifications for sign-ins from new devices, withdrawals and changes to security settings. Make sure they reach an email inbox and an app you check daily. Turn off lock screen previews if other people can see your phone. An alert only protects you if you see it quickly and recognise what it means, so read one or two genuine alerts to know what normal looks like.

Set and remember an anti-phishing code

The anti-phishing code is a word or phrase of your choice that appears in genuine emails from the platform. Choose something memorable but not obvious, and do not share it. Once it is set, any email claiming to be from the exchange without your code should be treated as suspicious. Remember that the code applies to emails, so text messages and social media contacts still need separate caution.

A two-minute weekly check

Once a week, open the app and glance at the device list, recent logins and any alerts you received. Confirm nothing unexpected appeared. If something looks wrong, change your password, end all other sessions and contact official support through the app. Two minutes each week is enough to keep these controls doing their job instead of silently drifting out of date.

Risk boundary: OKX Poland Guide

Digital assets are volatile and derivatives can amplify losses. This website has no login, wallet connection, deposit form or customer-support chat. A referral link only records attribution; it does not guarantee access, pricing, rewards, approval or investment results. Availability can differ by residence, legal entity and product, so no regional access is assumed from language or branding alone.

Scenario checkpoint

• Remove sold phones and replaced laptops from the trusted device list the same day.
• Enable alerts for new sign-ins, withdrawals and security changes to an inbox you check.
• Set an anti-phishing code and treat any exchange email without it as suspicious.
• Spend two minutes weekly reviewing devices, logins and alerts in the security section.
