How it works
Swap USDC to ETH in three steps.
No accounts, no waiting. Tell Cambio what you want, send your USDC, and the ETH lands in your wallet in under a minute.
02
Make one BSC deposit
Cambio generates a one-time deposit address on BNB Smart Chain. Send your USDC there — BNB Smart Chain confirms in seconds, and the card tracks every confirmation in real time.
03
Receive ETH on Arbitrum
After confirmation, Cambio settles ETH straight to your destination address on Arbitrum, which confirms in seconds. The receipt card shows the completed payout and the transaction hash.

Cambio 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.

Why this pair behaves the way it does

ETH

Questions
USDC to ETH on Arbitrum — frequently asked.
Is this a bridge swap?
No. Your USDC goes to a Cambio deposit address on BSC as an ordinary transfer, and you receive ETH on Arbitrum as an ordinary Arbitrum transaction. No bridge contract, no wrapped assets, no cross-chain messages.
How long does the swap take?
The deposit side on BNB Smart Chain confirms in seconds; the payout on Arbitrum confirms in seconds. The status card tracks every stage live — detection, confirmation, payout — so you are never guessing which side you are waiting on.
Is there sign-up or KYC?
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 ETH into an exchange account?
Yes — on the exchange’s deposit screen pick ETH and make sure the network is Arbitrum, 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.
What makes Cambio better on this route?
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.
