Optimism → Mainnet

Swap USDT to OP

Convert USDT into OP while keeping the sending and receiving sides on OP Mainnet. The two balances are different assets: transferring USDT to your own OP receiving address does not perform the exchange. Fund only the provider’s generated order address.

Tether (Optimism) to Optimism (Mainnet)

You send: Tether (Optimism)USDT · Optimism
You receive: Optimism (Mainnet)OP · Mainnet

Enter your amount to check live availability for USDT on Optimism → OP on Mainnet. A provider quote is required before you can create a swap.

Address and network checks

Use the order’s OP Mainnet deposit address for USDT, and your own OP Mainnet receiving address for OP. Keep the refund address on OP Mainnet; the payout address is not automatically a valid refund destination.

Sending USDT

Select OP Mainnet, often labeled Optimism. Its ETH balance and token balances are separate from those on Ethereum mainnet. Match the USDT network and token supported by the receiving service. A USDT balance on one chain does not automatically appear on another, and a dollar reference does not guarantee the quoted exchange value.

For a standard self-custody transfer on OP Mainnet, allow for network fees in ETH, separately from your USDT balance. Wallet sponsorship and exchange withdrawal charges can differ; check the sending wallet’s final fee.

Receiving OP

Choose OP Mainnet using the Mainnet option shown in this directory. Follow the selected provider’s exact deposit instructions before sending. Send the OP token on the network specified by the order. If sending from a normal self-custody wallet on OP Mainnet, allow for gas paid in ETH, not OP. This listed OP/Mainnet option has no separate memo field. If your destination requires additional instructions that this form cannot supply, choose another compatible destination before creating an order.

Refund address for this pair

Enter a refund address that accepts USDT on Optimism. The refund is sent in USDT on Optimism; verify that your refund wallet supports this exact asset and network.

Does a confirmed USDT deposit mean my OP has arrived?
