Exchange in 3 steps
-
Set the USDT amount and paste your Bitcoin payout address on Bitcoin mainnet.
-
Create the order to lock the quote and see the deposit address.
-
Send USDT to that deposit. After confirmations, BTC is paid to your wallet.
Before you broadcast
- TRC-20 USDT confirms quickly on Tron — usually within a minute or two.
- Never send USDT on the wrong network. TRC-20, ERC-20, and other variants are not interchangeable.
- Keep a small TRX balance in your wallet to pay Tron energy/bandwidth for TRC-20 sends.
- BTC not visible yet? Wait a few minutes, resync your wallet, then contact support with your order ID if the payout tx is already listed.
Tether — dollar-pegged stablecoin
USDT tracks the US dollar and is widely used for trading and transfers — always match the correct chain (TRC-20, ERC-20, etc.).
USDT network mismatch
The most common error is sending ERC-20 USDT to a TRC-20 address or vice versa.
Double-check the network badge on your order before sending.
Bitcoin — the original digital asset
Since 2009, Bitcoin has been the benchmark cryptocurrency — deep liquidity, wide recognition, and the default on-ramp for cross-chain swaps.
When is my BTC spendable?
After your payout transaction receives the confirmations shown on the order page — typically one or more blocks depending on route.
Checking your BTC payout
- Open the order page and copy the payout transaction hash into a Bitcoin block explorer.
- Confirm the destination address matches your wallet exactly — including case and format.
- Most wallets show incoming BTC after one confirmation; some exchanges wait for more.

Frequently asked questions
Is identity verification required to trade USDT for BTC?
No. GetSwap is a NO-KYC & Privacy-First Crypto Exchange — no profile, no ID upload, and no funded account for Tether → Bitcoin.
How long is a USDT → BTC order?
Typical completion is a few minutes. TRC-20 on Tron and Bitcoin mainnet confirmation times set the pace.
Do you custody USDT or BTC?
No. You send USDT yourself and BTC is paid to the address you enter — GetSwap does not keep a wallet balance for you.
What if I pick the wrong USDT network?
Match the network printed on the order (TRC-20 on Tron). A mismatch can strand the deposit — check the swap safety notes first.
