ChangeNOW Best

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.
Cambio was behind the best rate at this check — and we show it anyway. Every quote is compared live, and the number on the card is the number that settles.

Why this pair behaves the way it does
Solana finalises almost immediately — 1 confirmation on your SOL is enough — so the deposit leg is never the bottleneck on the way to USDC.
USDC on Solana is a token, so sending it also needs Solana'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 Solana: 0.35%. Below that the corridor stops covering settlement.
USDC on Solana carries 6 decimals, so every amount on this page is quoted to that precision and no further.
How long SOL on Solana takes to clear
Cambio waits 1 confirmations on Solana, then sends the payout immediately. End to end this corridor typically takes ~5 min.

Questions
SOL to USDC on Solana — frequently asked.
How long does the swap take?
Usually under 10 seconds end-to-end. Solana is the fastest launch chain.
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; 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.
Why USDC instead of USDT on Solana?
Personal preference. USDC carries tighter regulatory disclosures from Circle than USDT from Tether. Both are SPL tokens on Solana with identical dollar value. If you prefer USDT, use the SOL → USDT-Solana pair (#31).
Can I receive the USDC into Coinbase or another exchange?
Yes — most major exchanges accept Solana USDC deposits. On the deposit screen, pick USDC and "Solana (SPL)" as the network.
Why is Cambio cheaper than ChangeNow or SimpleSwap on this pair?
Tight chain-aware spread (0.30% floor on Solana), live-market pricing, and a live competitor strip on every quote.
