How the LINK to USDC swap works

Step 01

Open the LINK to USDC pair

Both sides are preselected. Enter the amount of Chainlink to convert and the router quotes across every liquidity source that lists the pair.

Step 02

Approve once

A one-time token approval lets the router spend exactly the LINK amount of this swap, and nothing more. Approvals are per-token, so later swaps reuse it.

Step 03

Sign one transaction

The aggregated route executes in a single signed transaction: all-or-nothing, no partial fills, no window where value sits in someone else's contract.

Step 04

Hold the settled USDC

Output lands at your own address with Follows the host chain (Ethereum ~12, Base ~a few, Polygon ~a few). The same keys that sent the LINK hold the USDC; no platform wallet ever does.

Both sides of this pair live on Stablecoin: the trade settles same-chain, routed entirely through on-chain liquidity with no bridge in the path.

Fees and settlement

Count it on one hand: 0.50% flat to the platform, stated in the quote with nothing behind it, plus each chain's gas for its leg of the trip. The route runs non-custodial end to end, so when the USDC settles Follows the host chain (Ethereum ~12, Base ~a few, Polygon ~a few) at your address, it is yours in the fullest sense: no custodian, no withdrawal queue, no platform in the path.

Before you start

The preview shows the whole trade before anything is signed: what leaves, what arrives, the fee, and the network costs. Keys never leave your side at any point in the flow.
