💵 Stablecoins & How to Receive Them

Stablecoins are a type of digital currency designed to maintain a 1-1 value with the USD. Stablecoins are backed by real-world assets, such as the US Dollar.

This means:

1 USDT or 1 USDC ≈ $1


💵 Stablecoins on Cleva

Cleva now supports stablecoin deposits, allowing users to receive USDT and USDC directly into their Cleva accounts, automatically get USD at a 1-1 rate, and convert the USD into local currency.

This update is especially useful for:

  • Freelancers working with international clients

  • Remote workers' earnings in USD

  • Business owners receiving payments from abroad

All stablecoin deposits are automatically converted 1-1 for USD and deposited into your Cleva USD wallet.


📲 How to Receive Stablecoin Deposits

Here’s how you can receive USDT or USDC using the Cleva app:

  • Log in to the Cleva App with your email address and password.

  • From the home screen, tap “Add Funds”.

  • From the available options, select “From stablecoins”.

  • Choose the type of stablecoin you want to receive:

    • USDT (TRON – TRC20)

    • USDT (Ethereum – ERC20)

    • USDC (Solana)

  • Read the displayed instructions carefully for smooth and accurate transfers.

  • Share your wallet address by either:

    • Scanning the QR code from the external sending platform, or

    • Copying the wallet address and sharing it via WhatsApp, Telegram, email, etc.(third-party).​

  • You’ll receive a confirmation via push notification and email once the deposit has arrived in your Cleva wallet.

Please take a look at the images below for the step-by-step process above:

Sharing your Wallet Address

To receive payments from third parties, you can securely share your wallet address or QR code, as shown in the example below:

The image above is your wallet address for your supported network. This is where you will receive USDT or USDC.


⚠️ Important Things to Keep in Mind

  • Only send stablecoins through supported blockchain networks. Unsupported transfers may result in lost funds.

  • Double-check the address and network before sending. For example, sending ERC20 tokens to a TRC20 address will lead to permanent loss.

  • Your Cleva USD wallet maintains a daily funding limit of $5,000, regardless of whether the funds are received via domestic wire, ACH, or stablecoins.

  • There is no need for a separate wallet; all USDC or USDT deposits go into your existing Cleva USD wallet.

  • The minimum deposits for USDC and USDT are $10, and any amount less than that will be lost.

With Cleva’s stablecoin support, you get more flexibility and reliability when receiving USD without the usual crypto price swings.
