Why USDT?

USDT is the most widely used stablecoin with over $140B in circulation. It's the default stablecoin in Asia-Pacific markets and has the deepest liquidity across exchanges and DeFi protocols, so a large share of crypto-native players already hold it. PYMSTR lets you accept USDT across 4 chains at 1% flat, settled straight to your own wallet. You choose which chains to accept and enforced payments stop customers paying on a chain or token you don't support, which removes the most common cause of lost or stuck payments.

No jargon.

USDT (Tether) is the world's largest stablecoin by market cap ($140B+), pegged 1:1 to the US dollar. It's issued by Tether and has the deepest liquidity across crypto markets.
PYMSTR supports USDT on Ethereum, Polygon, Arbitrum, and BNB Chain. You control which chains to accept.
USDT has maintained its $1 peg since 2014 and processes billions in daily volume. It's the most liquid stablecoin in the market. PYMSTR settles USDT directly to your wallet. Non-custodial, so you hold the funds.
Both, ideally. USDT has higher liquidity and dominates Asia-Pacific. USDC has stronger regulatory backing and institutional trust. PYMSTR lets you accept both with the same 1% fee.
Instant crypto settlements. USDT arrives in your wallet the moment the transaction confirms on-chain, typically 2-15 seconds depending on the chain (Polygon/Arbitrum: ~2 sec; BNB Chain: ~3 sec; Ethereum: ~15 sec). No batching, no holdback, no T+3 wait. See /features/instant-settlement for the full breakdown.
It depends on your customers. Polygon and BNB Chain are cheapest (gas around $0.01-$0.10, 2-3 second settlement) and BNB is especially common in Asia-Pacific where USDT dominates. Arbitrum offers low fees with Ethereum-grade security. Ethereum costs more in gas (~$2-10) but is the most universally supported. You can accept several at once; enforced payments let customers pay only on the chains you choose.
PYMSTR is 1% flat with no spreads, no monthly fees, and no setup. Custodial crypto processors typically run 2-3.5% all-in after conversion spreads and withdrawal fees, and card rails charge high-risk merchants 5-10%+ before chargebacks. The 1% is the full cost because PYMSTR never converts or holds the funds.
