What else is taken on top of the rate?
The payout is already calculated at the rate in the calculator. On top of it you only pay the network fee for sending DAI, and that one goes to the blockchain, not to us.
How long does DAI to ARB take?

Which network will ARB arrive in?
Arbitrum leaves in its own Arbitrum network — a plain ARB address is all you need.
What if the rate moves while I am paying?
The rate is pinned to the order and does not move while the order is alive. It can be recalculated if the payment arrives late or for a different amount — so send the exact sum, and send it promptly.
