How the swap works
-
Type the USDT amount and paste your Avalanche payout address on Avalanche C-Chain.
-
Press Exchange to open the live quote and the deposit address for this order.
-
Broadcast USDT to that deposit. After the required confirmations, AVAX is sent to your wallet.
Check these before you send
- ERC-20 USDT follows Ethereum confirmation times.
- Send USDT on Ethereum mainnet only β not Tron TRC-20.
- Leave ETH in your wallet for gas when sending ERC-20 USDT.
- If AVAX has not appeared yet, wait a few minutes and refresh the wallet. When the order already shows a payout tx, contact support with your order ID.
Tether β USD-pegged stablecoin
USDT on Ethereum (ERC-20) is widely used in DeFi β send only on Ethereum mainnet.
USDT on Ethereum mainnet
Use an ERC-20 compatible Ethereum address. TRC-20 USDT is a different asset.
Avalanche β fast smart-contract L1
AVAX is the native token of Avalanche C-Chain β quick finality, EVM compatibility, and deep cross-chain liquidity.
AVAX not received?
Confirm your wallet is set to Avalanche C-Chain and fully synced.
AVAX payout tips
- Payouts go to Avalanche C-Chain β use a 0x-style address compatible with your wallet.
- Check Snowtrace or a similar explorer with the payout tx hash from your order page.
- Allow a minute for your wallet to refresh after the explorer shows the transfer.

Frequently asked questions
Does USDT to AVAX require KYC or an account?
No. PeakSwap does not ask for a profile, ID documents, or a hosted balance for Tether to Avalanche.
How long until AVAX arrives?
Many orders finish in a few minutes. ERC-20 on Ethereum deposit confirmations and Avalanche C-Chain payout time set the wait.
Do you hold USDT or AVAX for me?
No. You send USDT from a wallet you control and AVAX is paid to the address you provide β PeakSwap does not keep a user wallet.
What if I send USDT on the wrong chain?
Use ERC-20 on Ethereum exactly as shown on the order. A wrong-network send may not be credited β read the swap safety notes first.
