For freelancers and remote workers around the world, getting paid in USD can be complicated. International wires are slow and expensive. Even "fast" services often take days and add surprise fees.
With UniFi, you can now receive USD instantly from anywhere – using USDC, the world's most trusted digital dollar.
What is USDC?
USDC (USD Coin) is a digital version of the U.S. dollar that moves instantly on modern payment networks. It's fully backed 1:1 by U.S. dollars, so 1 USDC always equals 1 USD.
But here's the best part: You don't need to know anything about crypto to use it.
When someone sends USDC to your UniFi address, it's automatically added to your USD balance, just like a regular payment.
How to receive payments in USDC
Every UniFi account includes a USDC deposit address.
To receive a payment:
- Log in to your UniFi app or the UniFi website
- Tap or click your USD account
- Tap Account Details and switch to the USDC tab
- You'll see your QR code and USDC address – tap Copy Address and share it with your client
Your client can send USDC from any major wallet or exchange, including Coinbase, Kraken, or Binance, and the funds will appear in your account within seconds.
Why get paid in USDC?
- Instant settlement: Payments arrive in seconds, not days
- No hidden fees: Skip wire costs and intermediaries
- Global reach: Works from anywhere in the world
- Simple UX: Automatically converted and visible in your USD balance
Many freelancers and small businesses use USDC to get paid faster, avoid currency delays, and stay in control of their money.
Send, spend, or save – instantly
Once the USDC payment lands in your UniFi account, you can:
- Send money home to PHP, MXN, or EUR accounts
- Spend directly with your UniFi Card (works with Apple Pay & Google Pay)
- Save your money on UniFi and earn 3% rewards
No extra steps. No separate wallet. Just fast, modern money.
