USDT exists on several blockchains, each with different fees and speed. This guide shows which network suits your store best.
Contents
Tether (USDT) is a token that lives on several blockchains. The amount is the same on every network, but transfer fees and confirmation times differ. If a buyer sends USDT on a network that doesn’t match the invoice address, the payment won’t arrive — which is why the checkout page shows the network next to the address.
TRC20 (TRON)
- Low transfer fees
- Fast confirmations, usually within minutes
- The most common choice for Iranian users
ERC20 (Ethereum)
- Higher fees that vary with network congestion
- Wide support across international wallets and exchanges
Our recommendation
For most stores, enable TRC20 as the main option and keep ERC20 for buyers who only hold USDT on that network.
