What amounts does SAND → USDC BASE accept?

Why can I not swap less than 2,290.87 SAND?

The network fee and the handling do not depend on the amount. On a transfer below 2,290.87 SAND they eat a noticeable share of it, and the swap stops making sense for either side.

What happens if the rate moves while I am paying?

Nothing: the rate is locked in the order and holds for as long as the order is alive. It is recalculated only if the payment arrives late or for a different amount — so send the exact sum, and send it promptly.
