OKX Aggregator+: routing quotes and intent execution

OKX Aggregator+ can compare a traditional aggregator route with an intent route. With Intent Swap, the user signs trade conditions and a solver submits settlement. That changes the instruction being authorized even when the input fields look familiar.

The official guide, updated September 2, 2026, lists Ethereum, Base, BSC, Arbitrum and X Layer for Intent Swap. It describes an Auto setting that chooses between routes and an Off setting that uses conventional aggregation. This is mode-specific coverage, not a full list for every OKX DEX feature.

Three operational details matter

• The Route field identifies the selected execution path.
• Cancellation is documented as available before the order enters the batch auction; it is unavailable once a solver has been selected.
• An unfilled order can continue attempting execution until the documented five-minute expiry.

Therefore, dismissing a screen or deciding to trade elsewhere is not reliable evidence that an earlier intent cannot still execute. Establish its actual status first.

Native ETH has an extra condition

The guide explains that an ETH sale can require a WETH path and wrapping or authorization. Treat this as part of the workflow, not an invisible conversion. A claim of solver-paid settlement does not eliminate the need to understand asset preparation.

Price improvement is conditional

The interface can show an estimated improvement over its standard route. That comparison concerns the quotes it obtained for the current request; it is not an independently measured guarantee against every other aggregator.

Review the minimum received amount and fee disclosure regardless of which mode wins. Faster execution, a clearer cancellation boundary or compatibility with your account can matter alongside the displayed difference. Select the workflow whose conditions fit the trade you intend to authorize.
