How the swap works
-
Type the USDT amount and paste your Stellar payout address on Stellar mainnet.
-
Press Exchange to open the live quote and the deposit address for this order.
-
Broadcast USDT to that deposit. After the required confirmations, XLM is sent to your wallet.
Check these before you send
- ERC-20 USDT follows Ethereum confirmation times.
- Send USDT on Ethereum mainnet only — not Tron TRC-20.
- Leave ETH in your wallet for gas when sending ERC-20 USDT.
- If XLM 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 — USD-pegged stablecoin
USDT on Ethereum (ERC-20) is widely used in DeFi — send only on Ethereum mainnet.
USDT on Ethereum mainnet
Use an ERC-20 compatible Ethereum address. TRC-20 USDT is a different asset.
Stellar — fast payments network
XLM (Stellar Lumens) powers the Stellar network — built for low-cost cross-border transfers and tokenized assets.
XLM not visible yet?
Resync your Stellar wallet. If the order shows a sent transaction, verify the address and memo match your wallet.
When will XLM arrive?
Stellar settlements are usually very quick once your deposit confirms.
- Check Stellar Expert or a similar explorer with the payout tx hash.
- Confirm whether your wallet needs a destination memo for incoming funds.
- Keep a small XLM reserve if your wallet requires a minimum balance.

Frequently asked questions
Does USDT to XLM require KYC or an account?
No. PeakSwap does not ask for a profile, ID documents, or a hosted balance for Tether to Stellar.
How long until XLM arrives?
Many orders finish in a few minutes. ERC-20 on Ethereum deposit confirmations and Stellar mainnet payout time set the wait.
Do you hold USDT or XLM for me?
No. You send USDT from a wallet you control and XLM is paid to the address you provide — 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 — read the swap safety notes first.
