Most common crypto apps and exchanges support USDC. We recommend using Coinbase. Using Coinbase, you can send USD via ACH from your bank account and convert it 1:1 into USDC, without any conversion fees. Here are the steps to follow:
- In your Coinbase account, choose Buy
- Select the amount you want to deposit.
- Choose USD Coin as the currency.
- Choose the payment method you want to use (link it first if you haven't already).
- Press Continue and Buy now.
After you purchase USDC, you should be able to complete your Stablegains deposit right away, but in some cases Coinbase may place your funds on hold for 3 to 5 days.
If you encounter any issues, contact our team at hello@stablegains.com or use the bottom right support chat in your Stablegains dashboard.
Note that Coinbase charges different fees based on your USDC purchase method:
Method | Fees |
ACH transfer | no fees |
Wire transfer | $10 flat |
Debit card | 3.99% |
PayPal | 2.5% |
