How the swap works
-
Type the USDT amount and paste your Ethereum payout address on Ethereum mainnet.
-
Press Exchange to open the live quote and the deposit address for this order.
-
Broadcast USDT to that deposit. After the required confirmations, ETH is sent to your wallet.
Check these before you send
- TRC-20 USDT confirms quickly on Tron β usually within a minute or two.
- Never send USDT on the wrong network. TRC-20, ERC-20, and other variants are not interchangeable.
- Keep a small TRX balance in your wallet to pay Tron energy/bandwidth for TRC-20 sends.
- If ETH 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 tracks the US dollar and is widely used for trading and transfers β always pick the chain listed on the order (TRC-20, ERC-20, and others are not the same).
USDT network mismatch
The most common error is sending ERC-20 USDT to a TRC-20 address or vice versa.
Double-check the network badge on your order before sending.
Ethereum β smart-contract base layer
ETH is the gas and settlement asset of Ethereum mainnet β staking, DeFi, and most contract activity run here.
ETH payout not showing?
Check the order page for a payout transaction hash first.
Confirm your wallet is on Ethereum mainnet and fully synced.
ETH payout timing
Most payouts land within minutes once your deposit confirms β Ethereum blocks are ~12 seconds apart.
ETH must land on the listed chain
- Payouts go to Ethereum mainnet β not BSC, Base, Arbitrum, or other L2s unless your order explicitly lists them.
- Double-check the address you paste: one wrong character sends funds to an unreachable wallet.
- Self-custody wallets (MetaMask, Rabby, hardware devices) are recommended for long-term holding.
Float vs fixed rate on ETH payouts
The rate mode you pick at the top of the swap widget affects how your final ETH amount is calculated.
- Float rate follows the market until your deposit confirms β best when mempools are quiet.
- Fixed rate locks the quote for a short window β useful when ETH price is moving quickly.

Frequently asked questions
Does USDT to ETH require KYC or an account?
No. PeakSwap does not ask for a profile, ID documents, or a hosted balance for Tether to Ethereum.
How long until ETH arrives?
Many orders finish in a few minutes. TRC-20 on Tron deposit confirmations and Ethereum mainnet payout time set the wait.
Do you hold USDT or ETH for me?
No. You send USDT from a wallet you control and ETH 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 TRC-20 on Tron exactly as shown on the order. A wrong-network send may not be credited β read the swap safety notes first.
