Pay with USDC on Solana: what to know

What you pay

Why USDC on Solana

Payment is a direct transfer from your wallet. At checkout you don't need a card, a bank account or a payment processor, so there are no declined international cards and no recurring charges to forget. Solana network fees are a fraction of a cent (our chain scorecard measured $0.00056 on Oct 8).

USDC is a stablecoin issued by a third party. Here it is only a payment method: paying in USDC is not savings, not an inflation hedge and not an investment.

What you do need

  1. A Solana wallet that can sign messages, for example Phantom, Solflare, Backpack or Jupiter Wallet. It's free to create.
  2. USDC on the Solana network. USDC sent over another network (Ethereum, Tron, BNB Chain, etc.) won't work for this invoice.
  3. A little SOL for the network fee.

Where do I get USDC? Usually through an exchange or a P2P trade. Those services may require ID checks or a bank account, charge their own fees and follow your local rules. Sit Out doesn't recommend any provider.

How it works

  1. Pick Seat or Pro API at sitout.xyz/signup. An email or @handle is optional.
  2. You get a Solana Pay invoice (QR and link), valid for 30 minutes.
  3. Pay the exact USDC amount from your wallet.
  4. Once the network confirms, your key appears once. Save it. Optionally link your wallet to sign in later with a text signature.

Sit Out never asks your wallet for a transaction or a spending approval. It only receives payments.
