Live quotes from every exchange that answered, at exactly this size: USDT → USDC on ARBITRUM
Cambio delivers the most here — 0.22% more than ChangeHero, and it stated its network fee, so this figure is after that fee rather than before it. It is also the fastest, at about 5 minutes.

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.
BNB Smart Chain produces blocks several times a second, so the 4 confirmations Cambio waits for on your USDT pass almost immediately and the USDC payout is what you are actually waiting on.
USDC on Arbitrum is a token, so sending it also needs Arbitrum'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 Arbitrum: 0.35%. Below that the corridor stops covering settlement.
USDC on Arbitrum carries 6 decimals, so every amount on this page is quoted to that precision and no further.
USDT and USDC both track the dollar, but they are separate tokens on separate chains — USDT issued on BNB Smart Chain, USDC issued on Arbitrum.
Worth checking before you send: on BNB Smart Chain the token is 0x55d398326f99059fF775485246999027B3197955, and the USDC you receive on Arbitrum is 0xaf88d065e77c8cC2239327C5EDb3A432268e5831.
BNB Smart Chain needs 4 confirmations before Cambio releases your USDC; that wait, not the Arbitrum 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 BNB Smart Chain, receive USDC on Arbitrum, no account.
Cambio waits 4 confirmations on BNB Smart Chain, 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 BNB Smart Chain is the exchange-default flavour of dollar-pegged USDT. The network confirms in seconds, with consistently low network fees — and it is the cheap-to-move USDT most CEX withdrawals default to.
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.

No. Your USDT goes to a Cambio deposit address on BSC as an ordinary transfer, and you receive USDC on Arbitrum as an ordinary Arbitrum transaction. No bridge contract, no wrapped assets, no cross-chain messages.
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.
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 USDC and make sure the network is Arbitrum (ERC20 (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.
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.
All from the 62,231 active launch-scope pairs. Each one has its own page with live rates, competitor comparison, and chain-specific notes.
