How to bridge USDT on BNB Smart Chain to USDC on Base
- Open the bridge with this pair preselected and enter the amount you want to send. The quote shows the amount that will arrive on Base.

Wallet, gas and address requirements
- Source (BNB Smart Chain): you need USDT to send and BNB to pay for the pay-in transaction.
- Destination (Base): Any EVM address can receive. You do not need ETH on Base to receive — only to spend afterwards.
- Address format: 0x + 40 hex characters.
- Exchange deposit addresses: only use one if the exchange lists USDC on Base and does not require a memo or tag you cannot supply. See bridging to an exchange.
If something goes wrong
A transfer that has been paid in is never dropped: it either settles or is returned. If the payout has not appeared after the expected window, check the status page, then read why a transfer is delayed. Keep the source transaction hash — it is the identifier support needs.
Verify what arrived
Look up your destination address on BaseScan and confirm both the amount and the asset issuer match native usdc issued by circle. Step-by-step: how to verify the token you received.
FAQ
What exactly do I receive on Base?
Native USDC issued by Circle — USDC on Base. It is not a wrapped or bridged representation of the asset you sent.
Why does USDT arrive as USDC?
This is a cross-asset route. ROZO accepts USDT on BNB Smart Chain as the pay-in and settles the payout in USDC on Base. The rate applied to the conversion is shown in the quote before you confirm.
Do I need ETH to receive on Base?
Any EVM address can receive. You do not need ETH on Base to receive — only to spend afterwards.
How long does BNB Smart Chain to Base take?
Typically 1–2 minutes. Settlement waits for finality on BNB Smart Chain before the payout on Base is released, so congestion on the source chain is the main variable.
What is the minimum amount?
1 USDT. Below that, the network fee on the destination chain would consume a disproportionate share of the transfer.
