OG US review covering maker and taker fees, ACH and RTP withdrawals, account verification, market scope, and product limitations.
OG’s biggest pluses for users are the clear split between maker and taker costs and the choice between standard and faster bank-withdrawal routes where supported. The qualification is complexity: pricing changes by market category, wallet documentation has geographic labels, and the US service is separate from the international product. A simple “two-cent fee” or “instant withdrawal” summary misses those differences.

What this product does well for users, and where it falls short:
| Detail | Evidence |
|---|---|
| US broker | Foris DAX FCM, per OG disclosures Source |
| Exchange | North American Derivatives Exchange, per OG disclosures Source |
| Market scope | Sports, economics, politics, and culture, subject to access Source |
| Most US market fees | Price-weighted maker/taker schedule Source |
| Other categories | Crypto, FX, commodities, and equity indices have a separate rate Source |
| ACH minimum | $1 (route-specific help) Source |
| RTP minimum | $1, with a 1.5% OG fee Source |
OG US disclosures identify Foris DAX FCM as broker and North American Derivatives Exchange in the exchange/clearing relationship. International OG has separate terms. A shared brand does not make the accounts, fees or safeguards interchangeable.
The CFTC’s register identifies North American Derivatives Exchange under its legal entity record. That record identifies the exchange. It is not an approval of the OG app or of every market a customer might see. Start with the entity and contract you are using, then check what the app actually charges and permits.

OG’s market-availability documentation covers sports, economics, politics, and culture. Availability is qualified by contract and jurisdiction. That breadth can make the service relevant to users looking beyond one subject, but it does not mean all categories are open to a particular account.
A market menu is not the same as executable depth. OG’s material explains the categories and trading rules, but not how much can be filled in a selected market or how the price may change during an exit. Liquidity can vary by market.

Most US event markets use a price-weighted formula: coefficient 0.07 for takers and 0.0175 for makers, multiplied by quantity, price and one minus price. The schedule applies on opening and early closing; these coefficients are not percentages of a funding transfer.
Crypto, FX, commodity and equity-index contracts instead list two cents per contract. The page waives or does not impose settlement charges under its stated conditions. Market category and order role must therefore accompany any cost comparison.

OG’s signup instructions describe email and mobile verification, personal details including date of birth and the last four Social Security number digits, and possible additional identification or selfie checks. Those steps are relevant to an account-opening decision because a working email address alone does not mean an approved trading account.
Wallet documentation lists several funding routes, but its geographic labels matter. The withdrawal articles sit under a US-except-New-York scope, while the current US fee page includes New York in its pricing scope. If you are in New York, check the payment routes shown in your account and the current eligibility notice before you fund.

The ACH article requires a linked bank account with a matching name through the documented Plaid flow. It states a $1 minimum and no OG withdrawal fee, while allowing for charges by the receiving bank. Withdrawal time and bank verification can still vary by account.
RTP requires a participating bank and carries a 1.5% fee, with a $1 minimum. OG describes processing in minutes and around-the-clock availability, but those are the operator’s own expectations; your withdrawal may take longer. The article points to ACH when RTP is unavailable and says a confirmed RTP withdrawal cannot be canceled. Speed, cost, and reversibility therefore differ between the routes.

OG’s fee distinction gives makers and takers different cost treatment, but a lower scheduled maker charge does not mean a resting order will match. Actual costs also depend on available quantities, actual prices, partial fills, and the price when you close a position.
The help center and signup documentation provide a route for questions, including chat. The workflows are clearly documented.

The US disclosures give the entity chain needed to investigate an account or contract. That is useful transparency, but it does not remove financial risk or settle every state-access question. Users should distinguish the broker handling an account from the exchange operating the contract, and distinguish both from the international company using the same brand.

Key questions about the product, its terms, and its evidence limits.
No. That rate applies to the named crypto, FX, commodity, and equity-index categories. Most US event markets use different price-weighted maker and taker formulas. Source
The US-except-New-York ACH article lists no OG fee and a $1 minimum. A receiving bank may impose its own charge. Source
No. The documented RTP route charges 1.5%, requires a participating bank, and cannot be canceled after confirmation. Source
The US and international disclosures identify different legal arrangements. International terms and eligibility do not apply to a US account. Source

Unless a section says otherwise, we did not add funds, trade or withdraw for this review, so processing times and fees are the operator’s own figures.
