Exchange in 3 steps
-
Choose how much USDT to send and enter your Polygon address on Polygon mainnet.
-
Hit Exchange to open your order page with the live rate and deposit details.
-
Transfer USDT to the address on your order — after confirmations, MATIC is sent to your wallet automatically.
What do you need to know?
- ERC-20 USDT follows Ethereum confirmation times.
- Send USDT on Ethereum mainnet only — not Tron TRC-20.
- Leave ETH in your wallet for gas when sending ERC-20 USDT.
- MATIC not visible yet? Wait a few minutes, resync your wallet, then contact support with your order ID if the payout tx is already listed.
Tether — dollar-pegged stablecoin
USDT on Ethereum (ERC-20) is widely used in DeFi — send only on Ethereum mainnet.
USDT on Ethereum mainnet
Use an ERC-20 compatible Ethereum address. TRC-20 USDT is a different asset.
Polygon — low-cost EVM layer-2
MATIC (POL) powers Polygon — fast EVM transfers, low fees, and wide DeFi and bridge liquidity.
MATIC not received?
Confirm your wallet is on Polygon PoS mainnet and fully synced.
MATIC payout tips
- Use a Polygon-compatible wallet and verify the receive address starts with 0x.
- Check Polygonscan with the payout tx hash if your balance has not updated.
- Do not expect MATIC on Ethereum — this route pays out on Polygon PoS.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need KYC to swap USDT to MATIC?
No. SendSwap is a non-custodial instant exchange — no account, no ID checks, and no KYC for Tether to Polygon swaps.
How long does USDT to MATIC take?
Most swaps finish in 1–5 minutes. Timing depends on ERC-20 on Ethereum and Polygon mainnet confirmations and current network load.
Is USDT to MATIC non-custodial?
Yes. You send USDT from your wallet and receive MATIC directly to the address you provide — SendSwap never holds your keys.
What if I send USDT on the wrong network?
Always match the network on your order page (ERC-20 on Ethereum for deposits). Wrong-network sends may not be credited — read our swap safety guides before you send.
