Swap USDS for ADA

Check this before sending USDS

  • The address network is Cardano. Sending through another network usually means losing the transfer.
  • The transfer must not be smaller than 200 USDS.
  • Copy the address whole, then compare the first and last characters after pasting.
  • Coins go through an AML check: a flagged transfer can be held until the check is finished.

Common questions: USDS → ADA

What rate does USDS to ADA run at?
As of Sep 17, 2026 01:48 it is 1 USDS = 5.1758 ADA. The figure recalculates on its own, and the calculator always shows the fresh one. In dollars that is around $1.01.
What amounts does USDS → ADA accept?
From 200 to 10,000,000 USDS per order. The lower limit is roughly $199.92.
Where does the 200 USDS floor come from?
Network fees and order handling eat a small transfer alive — below 200 USDS 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 USDS, and that one goes to the blockchain, not to us.
How long does USDS to ADA take?
The clock starts with confirmations: the order goes into work once USDS confirms your transfer. After that it comes down to how busy the network is.
Which network will ADA arrive in?
Cardano leaves in its own Cardano network — a plain ADA 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, ADA to USDS?
Yes, the reverse direction is open: 1 ADA = 0.19418 USDS. The link sits right under the calculator.
