Insufficient funds for gas

Your wallet needs ETH to pay Ethereum’s network fee, called gas. If you’re trying to send USDC, we can cover that fee.

How much ETH do you need?

Open the fee details in your wallet. If it shows gas units and a price in gwei, enter them in the Ethereum gas fee calculator. Compare the result with the ETH you have on the network you’re sending from. If you have ETH on Base or Arbitrum, check your Ethereum Mainnet balance separately.

Already tried to send the USDC? Check whether the transfer went through before you try again.

Your address starts with 0x. You can check it without connecting your wallet.

Why it happens

If the wallet can’t pay the network fee, the transfer doesn’t go through. Your USDC stays in your wallet.

How to move your USDC

  1. 1

    Paste the address of the wallet holding your USDC.

  2. 2

    Enter another Ethereum address you control and review the fee.

  3. 3

    Approve the transfer and our fee in your wallet. We pay for gas.

See what you’ll receive

Your quote shows the fee and what you’ll receive before you approve. You pay the service fee only when the transfer succeeds.
