Terms of Service

Last updated: March 2026

1. Acceptance of terms

By using Rare Swap ("the Service"), you agree to these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

2. Service description

Rare Swap facilitates international money transfers using crypto-rails (USDC stablecoin on Base blockchain). The sender pays with a card, the recipient receives a claim link and cashes out to their bank account. We are a technology platform — not a bank, money service business, or financial institution.

3. Transfer limits

During our introductory period, individual transfers are limited to $1,000 USD equivalent. We may adjust these limits based on regulatory requirements.

4. Claim expiry

Claim links are valid for 7 days from the time of USDC delivery to the recipient's wallet. Unclaimed transfers are automatically expired, and USDC is returned to the sender's embedded wallet.

5. Fees and exchange rates

Our fees are disclosed before you confirm a transfer. We use the mid-market exchange rate from frankfurter.app with no additional markup. Fee details are available at rareswap.com/fees.

6. Prohibited uses

You may not use Rare Swap for:

  • Money laundering or terrorist financing
  • Payments for illegal goods or services
  • Sanctions evasion
  • Any other activity that violates applicable law

7. Limitation of liability

Rare Swap is provided "as is" without warranties. We are not responsible for losses resulting from blockchain network issues, third-party service outages, or exchange rate fluctuations between confirmation and settlement.
