Our unique approach to pricing

When you open an Oku Markets account we'll tell you the price based on the services you need and the amount you'll trade. That's it. We won't use sales tricks to deceive you, we won't increase the price behind your back, and we'll always be honest with you. Refreshing? We think so.
