To help Cleva offer its services to you, we have to charge some fees. These fees help us pay our partners for the services they offer to us. Fees also help us run our business so that we can continue to offer our services at the best quality that we can.

We know you have questions. Here are some answers to help you get started:

1. Who does this new pricing apply to?

The updated ACH, FedNow, and stablecoin deposit pricing applies automatically to all Cleva users.

2. Do I need to activate anything to get the new pricing?

No. The new pricing applies automatically to your account from August 7, 2026.

3. Does this affect how fast I receive my money?

No. Deposit speed and reliability remain at the high quality we continue to provide.

4. How is the new fee calculated?

You can see exactly how this works for your own deposits using the Cleva Pricing Calculator.

​Stablecoins deposits will be changing to a $2 flat fee, regardless of amount.

5. What if I receive a $1 payment or a payment less than $2?

In this case, you’ll only be charged $1 not the $2 minimum fee.

6. Will these fees change based on exchange rates?

No. The fee is based only on your deposit amount, it does not depend on exchange rate movements.

7. Do Upwork deposits cost anything?

Upwork deposits remain completely FREE, $0, unaffected by this update.
