Step-by-step: swap USDC to USDT

  1. Step 1

    Pick the USDC → USDT pair

    Select USDC as the asset you're sending and USDT as the asset you want to receive. Confirm the network on each side — USDT on the wrong network can mean lost funds.

  2. Step 2

    Get a live aggregated quote

    Monivo polls every connected provider and shows the best USDC/USDT output for your amount, including the network fee and the exact USDT you'll receive.

  3. Step 3

    Paste your USDT wallet address

    Enter the wallet that should receive your USDT. Double-check the first and last 6 characters — it must be a valid Tether (USDT) address.

  4. Step 4

    Choose fixed or floating rate

    For a stablecoin payout, a floating rate is usually cheapest. Use a fixed rate if you want the USDT amount locked before you deposit.

  5. Step 5

    Send your USDC deposit

    Send the exact USDC amount to the one-time deposit address shown. USDC typically confirms within 5–20 minutes.

  6. Step 6

    Receive your USDT

    Once confirmed, the swap executes automatically and USDT is pushed directly to your wallet — no withdrawal step.

Fees, rates, and safety

A USDC→USDT swap has two cost layers: the USD Coin (USDC) network fee, and the provider spread baked into the quote. Aggregated routing shows the all-in USDT you receive up front, so compare the net payout — not the headline rate. Use a fixed rate to lock the price before depositing, or a floating rate to settle at market when your deposit confirms. Always verify the destination network and the first and last 6 characters of your USDT address before sending.
