Have you ever sent USDC on Base to an address meant for another network and realized too late?
That sinking feeling is all too common when dealing with stablecoins across different networks. Different networks typically mean different wallet addresses. One small mix-up and your money might not arrive where you expected. So you double-check. Then check again. Then ask the sender which network they’re using before sharing an address. Receiving USDC shouldn’t be that stressful.
That’s why Cleva introduced the Multi-Chain Wallet. The Multi-Chain Wallet gives you one wallet address that works across multiple supported USDC networks. Instead of keeping track of several wallet addresses depending on where a payment is coming from, you share one address and receive across all supported networks.
Inside the Multi-Chain Wallet, USDC is now supported on Base, Ethereum, Arbitrum, Polygon, Avalanche, Optimism, and WorldChain Networks.
That means more ways to receive USDC and less worry about mixing up wallet addresses.
This doesn’t replace your existing wallets on Cleva, it’s an added option to receive USDC on the newly supported networks with just one wallet address.
How does it work?
The Multi-Chain Wallet uses one wallet address across all supported networks.
Here’s what that means:
- Your wallet address stays the same across networks
- Payments must be sent through a supported USDC network
- Unsupported networks or tokens will not go through
As long as the sender uses a supported network, you can use the same wallet address to receive your USDC through the Cleva Multi-Chain Wallet.
