Common questions: USDC Polygon → OP Optimism
What rate does USDC Polygon to OP Optimism run at?
As of Sep 30, 2026 21:05 it is 1 USDC Polygon = 7.6045 OP Optimism. The figure updates on its own, and the calculator always shows the current one. On the market that is around $0.997838.
What amounts does USDC Polygon → OP Optimism accept?
From 100.67 to 10,000,000 USDC Polygon per order. The floor is roughly $100.65.
Why can I not swap less than 100.67 USDC Polygon?
The network fee and the handling do not depend on the amount. On a transfer below 100.67 USDC Polygon they eat a noticeable share of it, and the swap stops making sense for either side.

The clock starts with confirmations: as soon as Polygon confirms your transfer, the order goes out for payout with no operator involved. After that the timing is set by how busy the network is — which is the difference between quick and instant.
Which network will OP Optimism arrive in?
The payout goes out on Optimism. Check that the receiving wallet supports that network.
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.
