Two readings, side by side

ApeX Omni vs Ostium

Not a scoring table. Two dated readings of the venues' own restriction pages, the countries where their lists differ, and each programme's declared terms — quoted, never improved.

What each one charges

The gap between venues is usually larger than any referral discount: count that first.

What each programme declares

ApeX Omni

Continue to ApeX Omni
Promo code Y0C29KS7

You get 5% off Omni Perps fees. ApeX publishes no fee schedule we can read on its own site — the fee pages render client-side — so we do not tell you what 5% is 5% of. We record no figure for our own cut. Their terms page names no countries; payment does not invent a list.

Ostium

Continue to Ostium
Promo code M810X

Ostium's opening fee is 3–10 bps depending on the asset, read on their own docs 3 Sep 2026. We record no invitee discount for their programme. We are paid a referral commission. The restricted-country list is still Ostium's; payment does not rewrite it.

Questions

Which can I use from my country — ApeX Omni or Ostium?

The venues decide that, at KYC. What we publish is a different thing: whose list names which countries — yours marked when the connection can be placed — and the click is checked at the edge either way.

Do ApeX Omni and Ostium pay the same referral reward?

Each declares its own programme; both are quoted above verbatim and checked monthly. We add nothing to either.

Why do the two lists differ?

Different legal exposure, different regulators, different lawyers. We do not guess at reasons — we date what each page says and record every later change in the ledger.
