How to accept USDT (Base)

  1. Create a USDT deposit address

    Send one request with the URL to notify and the EVM wallet that receives the money. The same callback URL always returns the same address.

    curl "https://api.trezorpay.com/base/usdt/create/?callback=https://your.shop/paid?order=42&address=0x62f90a0Cde262228Afd74939E04d32E23Ec25677&pending=1"

  2. Show the address to your customer

    Display address_in, with a QR code from /base/usdt/qrcode/ if you like. Your customer pays at least 3 USDT; the address never expires and can be paid any number of times.

  3. Receive the funds and a signed callback

    After 10 confirmations (about 20 seconds), we forward the payment to your wallet and call your URL with pending=0, value_forwarded_coin, txid_out, coin=base_usdt, signed in x-ca-signature. Answer *ok*.

USDT on Base

Base is Coinbase's Ethereum layer 2: Ethereum security, fees in fractions of a cent.

For a USDT token payment, we send the gas the transfer needs ourselves and charge its cost in USDT at the market price. Your wallet never needs native coin.

USDT (Base) payments: questions

What is the minimum USDT (Base) payment?

3 USDT. A smaller payment is still recorded and shown in /logs/, but it is not forwarded, so that the network cost can never eat the payment.

How long until a USDT (Base) payment reaches my wallet?

We forward it once it has 10 confirmations on Base, which takes about 20 seconds on average, then send your server a signed callback with the forwarding transaction id.

Who pays the network fee for USDT (Base)?

We send the gas the token transfer needs and recover its cost in USDT at the market price, together with our 1.25% fee. You never need native coin in your wallet.

Do I need an account to accept USDT (Base)?

No. There is no sign-up and no API key: one request to /base/usdt/create/ with your callback URL and your EVM wallet returns a deposit address. Funds go straight to that wallet.
