Yeah, it's expresses the same meaning. In UK, it is common to say "okay", but if we see "okey" sometimes it just informal, and other times the person likes to use baby words. For example "oki oki" instead of "ok ok" or "okay okay" and so on.
In America, I guess some states use "okay" and "okey". Most of my friends are mainly from New York, they just say "ok" instead of "okay".

@Mkc: Is totally the same. I think... the pronuntiation? "okay (ocai)/ okey (okei)"
