Common questions

Can I cash out USDC without an exchange account?

Yes. A non-custodial P2P off-ramp coordinates the trade between you and a buyer through Base smart contracts, so no centralized exchange account is involved. The payment app you receive money in still applies its own rules.

Does USDCtoFiat hold my funds?

No. You sign every transaction from your own wallet. Your USDC is locked in a public Base contract and releases to the buyer only after their payment is proven. You can withdraw any unfilled deposit at any time.

What does it cost to sell?

Creating and managing a seller deposit is free, though Base gas applies to onchain actions. On delegated fills, Delegate's 0.10% manager fee comes from the USDC released to the buyer, not from your fiat proceeds or your quoted rate.

Do I need a centralized exchange account?

No exchange account is required to use USDCtoFiat. You need a wallet holding USDC on Base and an account on the payment app you want to be paid in. The payment app's own account rules and limits still apply.

Do I need to complete KYC?

USDCtoFiat does not collect identity documents, hold your fiat, or hold your keys. The payment app you use still controls its own verification, limits, and account rules. USDC settlement happens through Base smart contracts, and we cannot change what Venmo, PayPal, Wise, Zelle, or your bank requires.
