USDT on Ethereum

The details.

NetworkEthereum · ERC-20 token
Contract0xdAC17F958D2ee523a2206206994597C13D831ec7 View on explorer
Only this contract is accepted as USDT on Ethereum: look-alike tokens sent to your customers' addresses are ignored.
Decimals6 (amounts in the API are whole numbers of the smallest unit)
DepositsA deposit counts once it is 12 blocks deep and its block is still part of the chain. If a reorganization removes it, it's never credited.
Minimum withdrawal10 USDT
Network feesNetwork fees are paid in ETH. Your gas wallet can top up the ETH that token payouts and sweeps need, within a daily cap you set.
AddressesEvery wallet has one EVM address (0x…), the same on Ethereum, BNB Chain, Base, Polygon and Lisk. A customer can send any supported coin on any of those networks to it.

For developers

Deposit addresses and payouts in a few lines.

import { Valtu, depositAddress } from "@valtu/wallet-kit";
const valtu = Valtu.fromEnv();

// A deposit address for one of your customers (idempotent).
const wallet = await valtu.wallets.forCustomer("cus_42");
const address = depositAddress(wallet, "ethereum");

// A payout of 25.50 USDT: retries never send twice.
const amount = await valtu.assets.toBaseUnits("USDT-ERC20", "25.50");
await valtu.transfers.create({ walletId: payoutWalletId, asset: "USDT-ERC20", amount, to, externalId: "payout_981" });

Python: pip install valtu, same calls (valtu.wallets.for_customer, valtu.transfers.create). Full guide: integration.
