Phemex
OurbitIn short: the difference
How Phemex differs from Ourbit
Phemex is a derivatives terminal. On the market since 2019, jurisdiction: Samoa.
Ourbit is an exchange with services around the trading. .
What Phemex gives you
The rival’s service list is wide, yet Phemex wins on other things: A derivatives venue founded by people from bank trading desks. A hundred and fifty spot pairs and a hundred and twenty perpetuals, each with its own funding rate. There is savings, copy trading and trading bots. The book is even and the data is served openly, which makes its prices sound to compare with other venues.
Where Phemex is strong
an even book, open data, the funding interval stated per contract.
What Ourbit gives you
Next to a derivatives terminal, Ourbit answers with something else: Reach is the bet here: fifteen hundred USDT pairs on spot and over seven hundred perpetuals, each with a funding rate and a mark price. New coins and meme tokens appear quickly. One property matters for comparison: both spot with best quotes and the contracts are published openly and in full, with nothing trimmed.
Where Ourbit is strong
1500+ USDT pairs and 700+ contracts, best quotes and rates served as one list, fast listings of new coins.
What decides it
Fees, withdrawals and limits: where the gap shows
- Strengths side by side. Phemex: an even book, open data, the funding interval stated per contract; Ourbit: 1500+ USDT pairs and 700+ contracts, best quotes and rates served as one list, fast listings of new coins.
- Which job. Phemex is as an additional venue in cross-exchange routes and funding, while Ourbit is as an early-listing venue and a leg in cross-venue routes.
- Worth remembering. Phemex: a narrow listing next to the Asian venues. Ourbit: the network and withdrawal-fee directory sits behind a key, so we do not show a transfer status for it.
Which one fits you
Who Phemex suits
Phemex — as an additional venue in cross-exchange routes and funding.
Who Ourbit suits
Ourbit — as an early-listing venue and a leg in cross-venue routes.
What people ask most
Questions about Phemex
Phemex: Why is Phemex missing from the transfers section? It publishes the list of networks but not the withdrawal fees — its reference has no field for the charge at all. Showing networks without a price would be pointless.
Phemex: What is the funding interval on Phemex? Eight hours for most contracts, and the exchange states it per contract. Our funding section annualises from the real interval rather than assuming eight hours.
Phemex: Does Phemex have its own token? No. Instead there is the Premium subscription with reduced fees, so the discount does not depend on an asset price.
Questions about Ourbit
Ourbit: How many pairs and contracts does Ourbit have? By our measurements around fifteen hundred spot pairs against USDT and over seven hundred perpetual contracts. The figures are live and refresh with the data.
Ourbit: What is Ourbit’s funding interval? Most often eight hours, and the exchange states it per contract along with the next payout time, so we annualise from the real interval.
Ourbit: Does Ourbit take part in your arbitrage sections? Yes, all of them: spot, futures, funding, triangular routes and stablecoins. The exchange serves best quotes with sizes in one list, so we can compute both the spread and the execution ceiling.
Both at once
When it makes sense to keep accounts on both Phemex and Ourbit
You do not have to pick one. Two accounts give you a fallback when the coin or network you need exists only on the other venue. Spot and earn stay on the ecosystem, contracts on the terminal. Moving between them costs pennies on the right network.

Where Phemex and Ourbit diverge the most
Ourbit gives 9.5× the choice on spot: 1,414 USDT pairs against 149. Ourbit carries more perpetuals: 771 where the other has 129. The USDT withdrawal cost is absent from open data for both Phemex and Ourbit. That is their disclosure choice rather than a gap in our collection: neither reference carries a fee field at all.
Where these numbers come from
Pair counts, withdrawal networks, fee rates and the P2P currency list come from the exchanges own public interfaces. Where a venue withholds a field, the table shows a dash and an explanation.
