Same USDT, different network — without a bridge. Deposit on Arbitrum, and the payout settles to you directly on Ethereum. No wrapped tokens, no bridge contract, no funds in transit.
Live rate, no account, and an order ID to track it — or skip the form and just tell our AI the swap you want.
USDT → USDT
Live rateNo accounts, no waiting. Tell Cambio what you want, send your USDT, and the USDT lands in your wallet in under a minute.
Type "swap 100 USDT to USDT on Ethereum" into the composer. The AI parses your intent, confirms Arbitrum as the source and Ethereum as the destination, and returns a live quote with the full competitor comparison alongside it.
Cambio generates a one-time deposit address on Arbitrum. Send your USDT there — Arbitrum confirms in seconds, and the card tracks every confirmation in real time.
Once your deposit confirms, the payout goes out to your Ethereum address directly — Ethereum confirms in well under a minute. No bridge hop, no wrapped assets, no waiting on a second protocol.

ChangeNOW delivers the most here — 0.05% more than Cambio, but it has not stated its network fee, so that figure is a ceiling rather than a promise. Cambio is 0.05% behind on paper and is one of the few whose number we can confirm.

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.
Arbitrum produces blocks several times a second, so the 20 confirmations Cambio waits for on your USDT pass almost immediately and the USDT payout is what you are actually waiting on.
USDT on Ethereum is a token, so sending it also needs Ethereum's own coin for gas. Cambio funds that separately, which is why the USDT 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.
USDT on Ethereum carries 6 decimals, so every amount on this page is quoted to that precision and no further.
It is the same USDT on either side, but not the same object: what you send lives in Arbitrum's ledger, and what you receive is issued separately on Ethereum.
Worth checking before you send: on Arbitrum the token is 0xFd086bC7CD5C481DCC9C85ebE478A1C0b69FCbb9, and the USDT you receive on Ethereum is 0xdAC17F958D2ee523a2206206994597C13D831ec7.
Arbitrum needs 20 confirmations before Cambio releases your USDT; that wait, not the Ethereum payout, is what you spend time on.
People move a dollar token between chains to reach something only one side has: a protocol, an exchange deposit, or a cheaper onward transfer. Cambio does it as a swap — send USDT on Arbitrum, receive USDT on Ethereum, no account.
Cambio waits 20 confirmations on Arbitrum, then sends the payout immediately. End to end this corridor typically takes ~5 min.

Two different assets, two different on-chain stories. Here’s the minimum you should know before you send anything.
USDT on Arbitrum is dollar-pegged USDT in the Ethereum ecosystem at rollup fees. The network confirms in seconds, with L2 fees — a fraction of Ethereum L1 gas — and you get Ethereum-ecosystem USDT without paying L1 gas.
USDT on Ethereum is the most widely accepted USDT there is. The network confirms in well under a minute, with gas is the price of L1 — it rises when the chain is busy — and acceptance is maximal, with L1 gas applying whenever you move it.

No. Your USDT goes to a Cambio deposit address on Arbitrum as an ordinary transfer, and you receive USDT on Ethereum as an ordinary Ethereum transaction. No bridge contract, no wrapped assets, no cross-chain messages.
You receive USDT issued on Ethereum (ERC20) — the same asset, on the network you asked for. Wallets and exchanges treat it as ordinary USDT on that network.
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.
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.
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.
Yes — on the exchange’s deposit screen pick USDT 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.
