Fixed rate or floating rate for USDT → USDC?

Fixed rate

The USDC amount is locked when you confirm. The provider carries the market risk while your USDT deposit confirms, so the payout matches the quote as long as you send on time and within the quoted limits. Best when you need certainty on the exact amount received.

Floating rate

The swap executes at the market rate when your USDT deposit lands. It can pay out more USDC than a fixed quote, but the final amount can move up or down while the deposit confirms.

What to check before swapping USDT to USDC

As with any stablecoin-to-stablecoin swap, the networks and costs decide the outcome.

Expect less than 1:1
Provider spread and network costs mean you usually receive slightly less USDC than the USDT you send. Check the estimated payout first.
Choose the USDC network
USDC exists on several chains. Receive it on a network your wallet supports and paste a matching address.
Compare the USDC payout, not the headline rate
Judge quotes by the estimated USDC you receive and read the fixed or floating terms. A floating estimate can move while your deposit confirms; a fixed quote has an expiry.

Why swap USDT to USDC on Monivo

  • Aggregated rate comparison. Monivo compares quotes across multiple providers so your USDC payout reflects the strongest quote Monivo found at that moment — with zero added fees, so you can compare elsewhere before confirming.
  • Non-custodial. Monivo never holds your USDT or USDC. The USD Coin is sent straight to the wallet address you provide.
  • No account. No sign-up and no email for standard USDT/USDC swaps; the executing provider may still request verification.
  • Fixed or floating rate. Lock the USDT/USDC rate at quote time, or use the market rate at execution.

Why swap USDT → USDC

Network fees explained

Sending USDT

Sending USDT costs its network's gas token: TRX or energy for TRC-20, ETH for ERC-20.

Receiving USDC

The provider pays the USDC payout. Moving USDC later needs that network's gas token.
