Why USDC
USDC is a stablecoin on the Avalanche C-Chain, and it is one of the payment methods accepted on the Earniverse marketplace. It is not the only one: you can also pay by Card, with PayPal, or with other crypto. For the full list, see the Payment Methods guide.
If you choose to pay with USDC, you simply need enough USDC available to cover the Collectibles you want to buy.
You do not need AVAX for gas. The platform covers the network fees for you, so there is no separate gas token to buy.
How to get USDC
You can get USDC in two main ways.
Option 1: Buy USDC on Earniverse
You can buy USDC directly through the Earniverse on-ramp page:
- Open the USDC-AVAX page (
/usdc-avax) from the top menu. - Select USDC.
- Choose the amount and your currency (USD or EUR).
- Choose your payment method (Card or Wire).
- Complete the purchase with the available provider.
Two providers are available: MoonPay and Transak. Note that Transak is not available for USD payments by wire transfer. A KYC verification may be required depending on the provider and amount.
Option 2: Buy USDC on an external platform
You can also buy USDC on an external crypto platform, such as a centralized exchange, and then transfer it to your wallet.
If you do this, make sure you:
- Buy USD Coin (USDC) on the Avalanche C-Chain network.
- Follow the platform's own buy and withdrawal steps carefully.
- Send the USDC to the correct wallet address.
Important notice: Earniverse does not accept liability for any loss of tokens or token value during the process of buying, sending, claiming, or selling tokens inside or outside the marketplace.
Seeing USDC in your wallet
If you are using your own wallet and your USDC does not show up automatically, make sure you are connected to the correct wallet address on the Avalanche C-Chain. You may need to import the USDC token using its contract address:
