Exchange in 3 steps
-
Choose how much USDT to send and enter your USD Coin address on ERC-20 on Ethereum.
-
Hit Exchange to open your order page with the live rate and deposit details.
-
Transfer USDT to the address on your order — after confirmations, USDC 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.
- USDC 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.
USD Coin — regulated dollar stablecoin
USDC on Ethereum mainnet is a widely trusted stablecoin for DeFi and transfers — always use ERC-20 on Ethereum unless stated otherwise.
USDC not credited?
Verify your wallet is on Ethereum mainnet and the token contract matches official USDC on Ethereum.
When will USDC arrive?
ERC-20 USDC payouts follow Ethereum block times — usually minutes after your deposit confirms.
- Confirm your wallet is set to Ethereum mainnet, not Polygon, Base, or another L2.
- Add the official USDC token contract in your wallet if the balance does not appear automatically.
- Check the payout tx hash on Etherscan if your wallet shows no incoming transfer.
Why traders swap into USDC
USDC is widely used in DeFi and on exchanges that prefer a regulated dollar stablecoin.
On Ethereum mainnet it pairs naturally with ETH gas and most ERC-20 trading pairs.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need KYC to swap USDT to USDC?
No. SendSwap is a non-custodial instant exchange — no account, no ID checks, and no KYC for Tether to USD Coin swaps.
How long does USDT to USDC take?
Most swaps finish in 1–5 minutes. Timing depends on ERC-20 on Ethereum and ERC-20 on Ethereum confirmations and current network load.
Is USDT to USDC non-custodial?
Yes. You send USDT from your wallet and receive USDC 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.
