How the swap works
-
Enter the USDT amount and your Zcash payout address on Zcash mainnet.
-
Confirm to open the live quote and the deposit address for this PrivSwap session.
-
Send USDT to that deposit. After the required confirmations, ZEC is paid to your wallet.
Check these before you send
- TRC-20 USDT confirms quickly on Tron — usually within a minute or two — privacy-first on PrivSwap.
- Never mix USDT rails. TRC-20, ERC-20, and other mints are not interchangeable on PrivSwap.
- Keep a small TRX balance in your wallet to pay Tron energy/bandwidth for TRC-20 sends — privacy-first on PrivSwap.
- If ZEC is not visible yet, wait a few minutes and resync the wallet. When the order already lists a payout tx, message support with your Exchange ID.
Tether — chain-exact stablecoin rail
USDT tracks the US dollar for trading and transfers. On PrivSwap every mint is chain-specific — TRC-20, ERC-20, and others are different assets.
USDT network mismatch
The most common error is sending ERC-20 USDT to a TRC-20 address or vice versa — privacy-first on PrivSwap.
Double-check the network badge on your order before sending — privacy-first on PrivSwap.
Zcash — transparent or shielded on purpose
ZEC offers t- and z-addresses. On PrivSwap, match the exact format the order shows — the two types are not interchangeable.
ZEC receipt troubleshooting
Confirm address type matches your wallet. Rescan the blockchain in your Zcash client if needed — privacy-first on PrivSwap.
Transparent vs shielded payouts
Zcash supports both transparent (t-) and shielded (z-) addresses — they are not interchangeable — privacy-first on PrivSwap.
- Use the address type your wallet actually supports before placing the order — privacy-first on PrivSwap.
- Shielded payouts may take longer to appear depending on wallet software — privacy-first on PrivSwap.
- If the order shows a sent tx but balance is zero, rescan the chain in your Zcash client first — privacy-first on PrivSwap.

Privacy swap FAQ
Does USDT to ZEC require KYC or an account?
No. PrivSwap does not ask for a profile, ID documents, or a hosted balance for Tether to Zcash.
How long until ZEC arrives?
Many orders finish in a few minutes. TRC-20 on Tron deposit confirmations and Zcash mainnet payout time set the wait.
Do you hold USDT or ZEC for me?
No. You send USDT from a wallet you control and ZEC is paid to the address you provide — PrivSwap does not keep a user wallet.
What if I send USDT on the wrong chain?
Use TRC-20 on Tron exactly as shown on the order. A wrong-network send may not be credited — read the swap safety notes first.
