Swap ETH to USDT BEP20, or back
ETH on Ethereum and USDT on BNB Smart Chain live on different chains, even though your wallet uses the same 0x address for both. Send ETH to a one-time address, and BEP20 USDT goes to the 0x address you paste.

Before you send
- Paste a 0x address meant for BNB Smart Chain. In MetaMask or Trust Wallet, it's the same address you use on Ethereum. On an exchange, open its USDT deposit page and choose BNB Smart Chain (BEP20).
- Send ETH on Ethereum mainnet. ETH on Arbitrum One or Base is a different deposit: to swap from there, pick that network for ETH in the form.
- Sending from your own wallet costs ETH gas on top of the amount, so leave a little ETH behind.
- No refund address to fill in: if the swap can't go through, the ETH normally goes back to the wallet it came from. From an exchange, that's the exchange's wallet, and you may need its support to get it.
- Exchange menus may call Ethereum ETH, ERC20 or Ethereum, and BNB Smart Chain BSC, BEP20 or BNB Smart Chain. Which name is which.
After it lands
- BEP20 USDT arrives at your address on BNB Smart Chain. Switch the wallet to BNB Smart Chain to see it.
- Moving it on later needs a little BNB for gas. The ETH left on Ethereum can't pay fees there.
- The USDT is priced when your ETH is swapped, so the amount can differ a little from the estimate you saw.
Going the other way
- Paste the 0x address that should get the ETH on Ethereum. It can be the wallet you send the USDT from.
- Send BEP20 USDT on BNB Smart Chain to the deposit address. That send costs a little BNB.
- Receiving at an exchange? Use its ETH deposit page with Ethereum (ERC20) as the network, not Arbitrum or Base.
- Want the ETH on Arbitrum One or Base instead? Pick that network for ETH in the form.
How every Flipperr swap works
- Fees are inside the estimate. The “You get” amount already has Flipperr's fee and the network fee for sending to you in it. Nothing is added on top.
- The rate floats: the estimate moves with the market until your deposit is swapped. The final amount can differ a little on USDT and USDC, and more when a coin is involved.
- Each order has a one-time deposit address and a window to send: 10 minutes for USDT or USDC, 45 for a coin.
- Your exchange or wallet charges its own fee to send the deposit, separate from our estimate. If it takes that fee out of the amount you send, less arrives, and a short deposit can put the swap on hold until support sorts it out. Add the fee on top so the full amount arrives.
- While the swap runs, your tokens are with our liquidity partner. It can pause a swap it flags as risky and ask you to verify.
- A USDT or USDC swap usually takes a few minutes, and a coin on a slower network can take longer. Busy networks can slow any swap down, and the order page shows every stage.
Other ways to do this
- From your own wallet, a bridge with a swap built in can do this: connect the wallet, pay ETH gas on Ethereum, and receive on BNB Smart Chain. An exchange can do it as a trade, with an account (usually with KYC).
Questions about this route
- Can I send ETH to my BEP20 address?
- Sent on Ethereum, it arrives as ETH on Ethereum at that address. Switching the wallet to BNB Smart Chain won't show it as USDT. Getting BEP20 USDT takes a swap.
- Do I need BNB for this swap?
- Not to receive the BEP20 USDT. You'll need BNB later to send it on from your own wallet, or to swap it back to ETH.
- Can I swap ETH on Arbitrum or Base to BEP20 USDT?
- Yes. Pick ETH in the form and choose Arbitrum One or Base as its network. The deposit address is a 0x address either way, so send on the network shown on the order.
- Is the ETH price locked when I create the order?
- No, the rate floats. The USDT amount follows the ETH price until your deposit is swapped, so it can come out a little higher or lower than the estimate.
- Why doesn't the form ask for a refund address?
- On this route a refund normally goes back to the wallet the ETH came from. From an exchange, that's the exchange's wallet, and you may need its support to get it back, so a wallet of your own is the safer place to send from.
