Understanding Stablecoin Costs
When buying USDT or USDC with local currency, the sticker price is never the full cost. Three types of fees stack up:
- P2P Premium — the markup sellers charge above the market rate (typically 1–5%).
- Trading Fee — the platform's cut (0% on most P2P, 1–4.5% on on-ramps).
- Gas Fee — the blockchain transaction cost to withdraw your stablecoins (varies by chain).
Our calculator combines all three to show you the real cost of each method, so you can pick the cheapest route every time. After buying, put your stablecoins to work with DeFi lending or spend them on gift cards.
