Question 1

What is Arcex?

Accepted Answer

Arcex is a mobile-first trading platform that lets you trade perpetual futures, crypto options, prediction markets, and sports bets from a single app on iOS and Android. It aggregates liquidity from venues including Orderly Network, Hyperliquid, Derive, and Polymarket, offering 50+ markets with up to 100x leverage. Arcex is non-custodial (powered by Privy), requires no KYC, and is designed for both beginners and experienced traders.

Question 2

What can I trade on Arcex?

Accepted Answer

Arcex provides access to four major product categories from one app: (1) Perpetual futures on crypto, stocks, indices, and commodities via Orderly Network and Hyperliquid with up to 100x leverage; (2) Crypto options on BTC, ETH, SOL, and HYPE through Derive; (3) Prediction markets on politics, crypto, and world events powered by Polymarket; (4) Sports betting on NBA, NFL, NHL, MLB, and soccer with moneyline, spread, totals, and player props.

Question 3

Does Arcex use cross margin or isolated margin for perpetual futures?

Accepted Answer

The margin mode depends on the trading venue. Orderly Network uses cross margin exclusively, meaning all positions share collateral. Hyperliquid supports both cross margin and isolated margin, giving traders the flexibility to isolate risk on individual positions. You can see a full venue-by-venue comparison in the Arcex Help Center at arcex.app/docs.

Question 4

How do I get started with Arcex?

Accepted Answer

Getting started takes under 2 minutes: (1) Download the Arcex app from the Apple App Store or get the Android APK from arcex.app; (2) Create an account using your email or Apple Sign-In — no KYC documents needed; (3) Deposit USDC to your non-custodial wallet; (4) Start trading perpetuals, options, predictions, or sports immediately. The app guides you through onboarding step by step.

Question 5

What fees does Arcex charge?

Accepted Answer

Arcex offers some of the lowest fees in the industry. Fee structures vary by product and venue — for example, perpetual futures fees depend on whether you trade via Orderly Network or Hyperliquid, each with their own maker/taker fee schedules. Options fees are set by Derive. The full up-to-date fee breakdown is maintained in the Arcex Help Center at arcex.app/docs. Arcex also rewards active traders with pips and tier credits through its referral and rewards program.

Question 6

Do I need to complete KYC to use Arcex?

Accepted Answer

No. Arcex does not require KYC (Know Your Customer) verification. You can sign up, deposit funds, and begin trading immediately without submitting any identity documents. This is possible because Arcex is a non-custodial broker that routes trades through decentralized venues — your assets remain in your own wallet at all times.

Question 7

Who holds custody of my funds?

Accepted Answer

Nobody but you. Arcex is fully non-custodial, with wallet infrastructure powered by Privy. Your private keys are never stored on Arcex servers. Funds are deposited into smart-contract-based accounts on the underlying trading venues (Orderly, Hyperliquid, Derive, Polymarket), and you retain full control and withdrawal rights at all times.

Question 8

What trading venues does Arcex aggregate?

Accepted Answer

Arcex aggregates liquidity from four major decentralized trading venues: Orderly Network for perpetual futures (cross margin, 50+ markets), Hyperliquid for perpetual futures (cross and isolated margin, high-performance order book), Derive for crypto options (BTC, ETH, SOL, HYPE), and Polymarket for prediction markets (politics, crypto, world events). Each venue is integrated natively within the Arcex app, so users get a unified experience without needing separate accounts.

Question 9

Is Arcex available on iOS and Android?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Arcex is available on iOS through the Apple App Store and on Android via direct APK download from arcex.app. There is also a web app accessible at app.arcex.app for desktop and mobile browser users. All platforms share the same account and portfolio.

Anything. Anywhere. Anytime.
