Picking the right USDT network

Select based on your goals and transfer frequency:

TRC20 (Tron)	Very low	Fast	Frequent, low-cost transfers	Starts with `T…`
ERC20 (Ethereum)	Higher when busy	Medium-Fast	Ethereum DeFi compatibility	Starts with `0x…`
Solana (SPL)	Very low	Ultra-fast	Cheap, instant transactions	Base58 (no `0x`)
Polygon	Low	Fast	EVM dApps & bridges	Starts with `0x…`
TON	Low	Fast	TON ecosystem use	Starts with `UQ…`/`EQ…`

Pro tip: Go for TRC20, Solana, or Polygon for lower fees; ERC20 for broad DeFi access.

Understanding “no KYC”

No account creation or ID upload for typical swaps.
Funds remain in your wallet until you confirm the send.
Automated systems check transactions for risk. Occasionally, orders may pause or refund under AML policy. Review privacy and terms.

Fees, timing, and limits (plain terms)

Fees: All shown in advance.
Confirmations: ETH swaps trigger after enough network confirmations.
Speed: Most swaps finish soon after confirmations.
Limits: Shown dynamically in the widget.

Expert tips

Match address with network type.
Send the exact quoted amount.
If the quote expires, create a new one instantly.
Self-custody wallets confirm faster than exchange wallets.

Avoid these mistakes

Mixing TRC20 and ERC20 addresses.
Using too-low gas fees (causing delays).
Forgetting memos/tags when needed.
Sending ETH after the timer expires.

Example (ERC20 → TRC20)

You hold 0.5 ETH in MetaMask.
You want USDT on TRC20 for cheaper transfers.
In the widget, pick ETH (ERC20) → USDT (TRC20).
Enter your TRC20 address starting with T….
Review your quote and send ETH.
Receive TRC20 USDT after confirmations.

Troubleshooting

Wrong amount sent: Contact support with the transaction hash.
Quote expired: Generate a new one and resend.
No USDT received: Check blockchain confirmations on both sides.
Incorrect network: Funds may be unrecoverable—double-check first.
