Network fee — a stated amount is what the exchange returned, and the figure shown is after it. “included” means the exchange’s own price already contains its network fee, not itemised. “not stated” means its API returned no fee, so that amount is a ceiling rather than a promise.

Every row is what that exchange would pay for this exact size, quoted live from its own API at the time shown and ranked by what lands in your wallet. The bar is each row’s all-in cost against the market rate at that moment, drawn to one scale — ours included.

THIS CORRIDOR, IN NUMBERS

ETH on Arbitrum → USDC on Ethereum

What ETH → USDC actually costs

  • You send 0.1 ETH on Arbitrum.
  • You receive 254.087732 USDC.
  • The smallest swap this corridor accepts is 0.066 ETH.

Why this pair behaves the way it does

Arbitrum produces blocks several times a second, so the 20 confirmations Cambio waits for on your ETH pass almost immediately and the USDC payout is what you are actually waiting on.

USDC on Ethereum is a token, so sending it also needs Ethereum's own coin for gas. Cambio funds that separately, which is why the USDC side is capped by what the wallet holds rather than by a policy number.

Floor on Ethereum: 0.455%. Below that the corridor stops covering settlement.

USDC on Ethereum carries 6 decimals, so every amount on this page is quoted to that precision and no further.

How long ETH on Arbitrum takes to clear

Cambio waits 20 confirmations on Arbitrum, then sends the payout immediately. End to end this corridor typically takes ~5 min.

The two coins

What you’re actually swapping.

Two different assets, two different on-chain stories. Here’s the minimum you should know before you send anything.

ETH
Arbitrum native

ETH is the same ETH, living on Ethereum's leading rollup. Sending ETH is an ordinary native transfer — no token approval, no contract interaction. Arbitrum confirms in seconds, and gas on Arbitrum is paid in ETH too — just far less of it.

  • NetworkArbitrum
  • Confirmations needed20
  • Average block timesub-second blocks
USDC
Ethereum ERC20

USDC on Ethereum is the canonical, issuer-native USDC. The network confirms in well under a minute, with gas is the price of L1 — it rises when the chain is busy — and this is the issuer-native home of USDC.

Questions

ETH to USDC on Ethereum — frequently asked.

Is this a bridge swap?

No. Your ETH goes to a Cambio deposit address on Arbitrum as an ordinary transfer, and you receive USDC on Ethereum as an ordinary Ethereum transaction. No bridge contract, no wrapped assets, no cross-chain messages.

How long does the swap take?

The deposit side on Arbitrum confirms in seconds; the payout on Ethereum confirms in well under a minute. The status card tracks every stage live — detection, confirmation, payout — so you are never guessing which side you are waiting on.

Do I need to verify my identity?

No account or sign-up is needed. Every swap is screened against sanctions and on-chain risk lists before a deposit address is issued; in line with applicable law and our risk-based AML policy, identity verification may be requested where screening flags elevated risk.

What is the maximum I can swap?

There is no fixed per-swap cap. The most you can send on this pair is shown in the table above and recalculated on every quote, so it always reflects what we can settle right now.

Can I receive the USDC into an exchange account?

Yes — on the exchange’s deposit screen pick USDC and make sure the network is Ethereum (ERC20), then paste that deposit address into the Cambio composer as your destination. If the network on the exchange side doesn’t match, don’t send — ask the AI and it will walk you through it.

Why use Cambio for this pair?

Every quote ships with a live comparison against the biggest instant exchanges — including when we lose — and the number on the card is the number that settles. Pricing is chain-aware, the route has no bridge exposure, and screening happens before your deposit, never after.
