About USD Coin
What you are buying
USD Coin (USDC) is a stablecoin: a digital token designed to hold the value of one US dollar. It is issued by Circle, which publishes monthly reserve reports from an independent accounting firm showing the cash and short-term US Treasury holdings behind the tokens in circulation. USDC runs on Ethereum, Solana, Base, Polygon, and other networks, so it moves as fast as those networks do, around the clock.
People buy USDC to hold dollars in a wallet they control, to move dollars across borders in minutes without a bank in the middle, to park value between trades without leaving crypto, to earn on lending and DeFi platforms, and to pay for things priced in dollars. On this site, USDC is also one of the assets you can pay bills from directly.
Buy USDC from Coin Nerds, or sell it to us, online and across branch counters. Every purchase settles at the live rate on this page and is delivered to your own wallet within minutes of your payment clearing.

Why the USD to USDC rate moves
USD Coin trades continuously against the dollar and against every other currency, so the USD to USDC figure on this page changes second to second with the market. Coin Nerds quotes from the live market rather than a rate set once a day, which is why the number here moves while you read. The figure you accept in the widget is the figure your order settles at.
Converting USD to USDC in person
The same conversion runs across the counter at a Coin Nerds branch, including Mississauga (Ontario, Canada), Salt Lake City (Utah, United States), Lahore (Pakistan). Bring government-issued ID and the wallet you want the coins delivered to, and a person handles the trade with you at the same live rate. In every other major city, our agents arrange in-person cash trades over chat or by phone, in any amount, at any time.
Large USD to USDC conversions
Orders of $50,000 and above go through the OTC desk, where the price is locked once it is quoted rather than moving while the order fills, and the desk is reachable over chat, phone, and email. Below that, the widget and the app handle any size from the $100 CAD minimum up.
