~1 min is the app's estimated end-to-end arrival time, not a measured result from these observations. Circle's published average standard-transfer attestation from Polygon is ~8 seconds; destination minting still follows. See Circle's timing methodology.

How it works

  1. BurnYour USDC is burned by Circle's CCTP contract on Polygon.
  2. AttestCircle's attestation service signs the burn.
  3. MintThe same amount of native USDC is minted on Solana.
More about Polygon → Solana

Polygon reaches finality quickly, so a standard CCTP transfer is already fast, with no Fast Transfer fee. From Polygon to Solana, USDC typically takes about 1 minute as a standard transfer (Circle's average attestation from Polygon: ~8 seconds); Circle's Forwarding Service submits the mint on Solana.

On Polygon, with your sendstables wallet the fee payment, approval and burn are gas-sponsored, so you don't need any POL for gas — just the USDC you're sending. If you connect your own EVM wallet instead, it pays the POL gas for those transactions. On Solana, Circle's Forwarding Service submits the mint for you, so the recipient doesn't need any SOL for gas on Solana.

Solana holds USDC in an associated token account (ATA). If the recipient doesn't have one yet, it's created on arrival and the rent is included in the quote — you only need their normal Solana address.

CCTP burns and re-mints instead of using a pool, so there's no slippage and no wrapped token. Learn about CCTP.

How to move USDC from Polygon to Solana

  1. Check native USDC on Polygon PoS. Select Polygon in your sending wallet and compare its USDC contract with the one listed below. An Ethereum balance or Polygon USDC.e cannot fund this route.
  2. Choose your Solana recipient. Use To your wallet for your own sendstables Solana wallet, or Different address for someone else. Copy a normal Solana wallet address, not a Polygon 0x address, the USDC mint or a token account.
  3. Preview the total and receiving amount. Select Polygon → Solana and enter the amount. A sendstables wallet uses sponsored Polygon gas; a connected EVM wallet needs POL. A missing USDC token account on Solana is created, with its rent in the quote.
  4. Sign and follow the transfer. Sign in, review the refreshed quote and confirm. Follow the Polygon burn, Circle attestation and Solana mint in the transfer status; a confirmed burn is not yet delivery.

Before you send

  • This route starts on Polygon PoS and arrives as native USDC on Solana. Polygon’s 0x… wallet address is not a Solana recipient address. Use native USDC on Polygon, not USDC.e or another bridged token with the same ticker.
  • Hold native USDC on Polygon. A token named USDC, USDC.e or a bridged version is not automatically the Circle-issued asset; compare the identifier below.
  • Use the recipient’s normal Solana wallet address. Do not paste the USDC mint address or an associated token account address.
  • Sending to an exchange? Check it accepts native USDC deposits on Solana, and that it doesn't need a memo or tag the form can't add.

FAQ

How much does it cost to move $1,000 USDC from Polygon to Solana, and how long does it take?

Moving $1,000 USDC from Polygon to Solana with sendstables has a service charge of $0.50 (0.05% at this amount) plus about $0.20 in Circle fees, about $0.70 combined before operating costs and margin. It arrives as native USDC minted by Circle's CCTP (no wrapped token) and typically takes about 1 minute as a standard transfer (Circle's average attestation from Polygon: ~8 seconds), with no POL needed for gas in a sendstables wallet. Estimates checked Oct 23, 2026; the in-app quote shows our exact fee, Circle's live fee estimate and the guaranteed minimum you'll receive.

How long does it take to move USDC from Polygon to Solana?

It typically takes about 1 minute as a standard transfer (Circle's average attestation from Polygon: ~8 seconds). Times are estimates.

How much does it cost to bridge USDC from Polygon to Solana?

Our fee is 0.05% service charge (min $0.10, no cap) plus operating costs and margin (the cost margin is 30%). Circle's standard fee from Polygon: $0 when checked, plus a small Forwarding Service fee on Solana. The quote shows our exact fee, Circle's live fee estimate and the guaranteed minimum you'll receive before you sign.

Is the USDC I receive on Solana native or wrapped?

Native. CCTP burns USDC on Polygon and Circle mints the same amount on Solana. No wrapped token, no pool, no slippage.

Do I need POL on Polygon or SOL on Solana for gas?

Not with a sendstables wallet: we sponsor the POL gas. A connected EVM wallet pays its own POL gas. Circle's Forwarding Service handles the mint on Solana.

Can I send USDC from Polygon to someone else's Solana address?

Yes. Use the Send tab and paste a Solana wallet address (the owner address, not the token account). The Swap tab moves USDC between your own wallets.

What if the Solana wallet has no USDC token account?

It's created on arrival and the rent is included in the quote. You only need their normal Solana address.

Is sendstables run by Circle?

No. sendstables is an independent app built on Circle's public CCTP. Circle issues USDC and runs CCTP; we sponsor gas, relay where needed, and charge the fee shown in the quote.

Troubleshooting Polygon → Solana

My USDC balance is missing

Check the sending wallet, selected network (Polygon) and token identifier above. Native USDC on Solana or another network is a separate balance. If you hold a bridged token, this route does not convert it into native USDC for you.

After a recent deposit, check its confirmation in your wallet’s explorer and refresh the app balance.

The address or destination is rejected

Use the recipient’s normal Solana wallet address. Do not paste the USDC mint address or an associated token account address.

Copy it again from the recipient’s wallet, check the full address and confirm the network. Do not use a token contract, mint or issuer address as the recipient.

The quote changed or I cannot confirm

Review the refreshed quote and the USDC balance on Polygon. Network costs and Circle fees can change, and expired quotes cannot be confirmed.

If you connected an external EVM wallet, it also needs POL on Polygon for source-chain transactions. A sendstables wallet uses sponsored gas.

If a wallet prompt was rejected, check the app’s transfer status before trying again.

The burn confirmed but USDC has not arrived on Solana

Open the existing transfer’s status and explorer links. Delivery follows the source burn, Circle’s attestation and the destination mint; a confirmed burn alone does not mean delivery is complete. Use the app’s status or delivery retry controls when offered.

Avoid starting a second transfer to fix a pending one. Circle explains attestation and finality times.

The transfer says delivered, but my wallet does not show USDC

Check the destination transaction and recipient on Solana. Select Solana in the receiving wallet and, if needed, add the native USDC token identifier above to its display. For an exchange deposit, its own crediting process may still be pending.

For help, keep the route, source transaction hash, destination hash if available and the status or error message. Never share a seed phrase, private key or sign-in code. Contact sendstables support.
