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.

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.
USDC
Arbitrum ERC20 (Arbitrum)
USDC on Arbitrum is issuer-native USDC (not a bridged wrapper). The network confirms in seconds, with L2 fees — a fraction of Ethereum L1 gas — and Circle mints it directly on Arbitrum rather than bridging it over.

- Confirmations needed20
- Average block timesub-second blocks
BNB
BNB Smart Chain native
BNB is the native gas token of BNB Smart Chain. Sending BNB is an ordinary native transfer — no token approval, no contract interaction. BNB Smart Chain confirms in seconds, and you need a little BNB on BSC to move anything else there.

Questions
USDC to BNB on BNB Smart Chain — frequently asked.
Is this a bridge swap?
No. Your USDC goes to a Cambio deposit address on Arbitrum as an ordinary transfer, and you receive BNB on BSC as an ordinary BSC transaction. No bridge contract, no wrapped assets, no cross-chain messages.
What’s the end-to-end time?
The deposit side on Arbitrum confirms in seconds; the payout on BNB Smart Chain confirms in seconds. 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 BNB into an exchange account?
Yes — on the exchange’s deposit screen pick BNB and make sure the network is BNB Smart Chain, 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.
