Who takes the USDC Polygon → DAI route

A road both waysThe DAI → USDC Polygon direction is open too, so going back into USDC takes the same route.

How the USDC Polygon → DAI order runs

Work out the amount in the calculator: orders start at 200 USDC Polygon.
Enter a DAI address in Dai and a way to reach you.
Send USDC Polygon in Polygon for exactly the amount stated in the order.
Once the network confirms your transfer, Dai leaves for your address. The order page tracks every step.

Swap USDC Polygon for DAI

Check this before sending USDC Polygon

The address network is Dai. Sending through another network usually means losing the transfer.
The transfer must not be smaller than 200 USDC Polygon.
Copy the address whole, then compare the first and last characters after pasting.
Ethereum, Arbitrum, Optimism, BNB Smart Chain and Polygon all use the same address shape (0x…). Make sure the wallet is switched to Ethereum.
To move DAI on later, put a little ETH at the same address.
Coins go through an AML check: a flagged transfer can be held until the check is finished.

Common questions: USDC Polygon → DAI

What rate does USDC Polygon to DAI run at?

As of Sep 17, 2026 09:23 it is 1 USDC Polygon = 1.0031 DAI. The figure recalculates on its own, and the calculator always shows the fresh one. In dollars that is around $1.00.

What amounts does USDC Polygon → DAI accept?

From 200 to 10,000,000 USDC Polygon per order. The lower limit is roughly $199.92.

Where does the 200 USDC Polygon floor come from?

Network fees and order handling eat a small transfer alive — below 200 USDC Polygon the swap stops making sense for either side.

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 USDC Polygon, and that one goes to the blockchain, not to us.

How long does USDC Polygon to DAI take?

The clock starts with confirmations: the order goes into work once Polygon confirms your transfer. After that it comes down to how busy the network is. A block in Polygon closes in about 2 sec.

Will native DAI arrive, or a wrapper?

DAI is the standard DAI token in Ethereum — exactly what exchanges send when they withdraw into this network.

Do I need ETH to receive DAI?

Not to receive. ETH comes into play later, when you want to send DAI from your address.

Which network will DAI arrive in?

Dai leaves in its own Dai network — a plain DAI 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.

Can I go back, DAI to USDC Polygon?

Yes, the reverse direction is open: 1 DAI = 1.0032 USDC Polygon. The link sits right under the calculator.
