Swap USD Coin → Zcash (no KYC)

USDC → ZEC (Zcash mainnet) on Web3Swap: fees show before you broadcast. After USD Coin confirms on ERC-20 on Ethereum, payout leaves toward your ZEC address — usually minutes, not an account review queue.

    Three steps on Web3Swap

    1. Enter the USDC size and paste the Zcash payout address for Zcash mainnet on this Web3Swap ticket.

    2. Confirm Exchange to lock the live Web3Swap quote and reveal this ticket’s deposit details.

    3. Broadcast exactly that USDC amount to the deposit. After ERC-20 on Ethereum confirms, ZEC is paid to your wallet.

    Before you broadcast

    • ERC-20 USDC follows Ethereum confirmation times.
    • Send USDC on Ethereum mainnet only for this route — not Polygon, Base, or Solana USDC.
    • Leave ETH in your wallet for gas when sending USDC.
    • If ZEC is late, refresh your wallet and re-check the ticket. When a payout hash is already listed, email or SimpleX support with your Exchange ID — Web3Swap has no login that lists expired orders.

    USDC tickets — ERC-20 unless the badge says otherwise

    USD Coin on Ethereum mainnet is the default on this hub. A Solana or L2 USDC send will not credit an ERC-20 Web3Swap deposit — match the mint before you broadcast.

    USDC on Ethereum mainnet

    Use an ERC-20 compatible Ethereum address. L2 USDC is a different asset on-chain.

    Gas fees apply to token transfers — ensure sufficient ETH balance.

    Zcash tickets — transparent vs shielded

    Zcash Web3Swap tickets lock either a transparent or shielded receive format on-screen. Sending the other type is the most common reason ZEC never credits.

    ZEC receipt troubleshooting

    Confirm address type matches your wallet. Rescan the blockchain in your Zcash client if needed.

    Transparent vs shielded payouts

    Zcash supports both transparent (t-) and shielded (z-) addresses — they are not interchangeable.

    • Use the address type your wallet actually supports before placing the order.
    • Shielded payouts may take longer to appear depending on wallet software.
    • If the order shows a sent tx but balance is zero, rescan the chain in your Zcash client first.

    Deposit checklist

    Chain mismatches and bad addresses are the usual failure modes — skim these notes before you fund the deposit.

    FAQ for this route

    Do I need KYC or a Web3Swap login for USDC → ZEC?

    No. A standard USD Coin → Zcash ticket on Web3Swap skips signup and ID upload. You stay self-custodial on both legs.

    How soon does ZEC usually arrive?

    After the ERC-20 on Ethereum deposit is final, many payouts leave within minutes. Congestion on ERC-20 on Ethereum or Zcash mainnet can stretch that — mempools and fees set the clock, not a compliance hold.

    Does Web3Swap custody my USDC or ZEC?

    No. You broadcast USDC from a wallet you control; ZEC pays only to the address you paste. Nothing sits as a named Web3Swap balance.

    What if I send USDC on the wrong rail?

    Match ERC-20 on Ethereum exactly as printed on the Web3Swap ticket badge. A wrong-chain deposit often cannot be credited automatically — verify before you broadcast.
