Here is the short answer: OKX new user rewards cannot be claimed once the task expires. This is not a system bug. It is a hard rule in the campaign terms. However, you can still check whether your reward really expired or is just stuck in a middle state.

Can expired rewards be recovered? No, but you can check
The OKX new user reward program says clearly in the Terms and Conditions: "Complete the required tasks within the task validity period to receive the reward." Once the validity period is over, the task becomes invalid automatically, and the reward will not be reissued.
Different campaigns may have slightly different time windows. For example, "complete your first eligible trade" usually must be done within 29 days after registration. Some regions or specific campaigns may require it within 14 days. So "expired" is a general term. The exact time limit depends on the campaign page you joined.
Even if the task has not expired, the reward itself has two countdowns: "activation" and "claiming":
Claim period: After a reward voucher is issued, you usually need to claim it manually within 30 days. Otherwise, it will expire.
Activation period: After you claim a reward into "My Rewards" (such as trading bonus funds), you still need to activate it within the stated time. If it is not activated in time, it will expire too.
The only exception is if you completed the task but did not receive the reward within 48 hours. That is a system distribution issue, and you can contact support. But if the task validity period is already over, support cannot help either.
Eligibility checklist — check in this order
If you still do not have your reward and the task status shows "Expired", check the following steps:
Check whether the task validity period has passed: Go to OKX App [Campaign Center] → [My Tasks] and look at the "remaining time" shown on the task card. If it is zero, the task has expired.
Check whether you met the condition within the validity period: Some tasks must be completed in one go. For example, "first trade" requires a single order to reach the specified amount. Multiple small orders added together do not count.
Check whether you claimed it in time: If you see the voucher in [My Rewards] but did not click "Claim", you were too late. The voucher may already be void.
Check whether you are in an eligible region: New user campaigns have clear limits on "country or region of residence". If your registered residence is not covered by the campaign, you will not get the reward even if you completed the task.

How to check your completed actions
Go to the OKX App [Campaign Center] → [My Rewards] page. If the reward voucher status shows "Expired" or "Void", there is no way to recover it. If the status is "To be claimed" or "To be activated", click claim or activate right away so the reward does not go to waste.
