How the rate works
GF-PAY's ETH/US Dollar rate is based on the live market price with a 1% spread and a 2% service fee (minimum 1 USDT). Quotes refresh regularly with the market; the rate locks when you create an order.
Unlike banks and centralized exchanges, GF-PAY uses a P2P model: you trade directly with the platform, no counterparty matching needed. The rate stays fixed for the quote's validity window (15 minutes).
What affects the price
Crypto market volatility is the primary driver of the ETH/US Dollar rate. During sharp moves, the spread automatically widens to cover slippage risk.
US Dollar off-exchange liquidity also influences the quote. For large amounts (over 10,000 USDT), request a custom quote for a better rate than the automated calculation.
- Blockchain congestion — affects ETH confirmation time
- US Dollar banking system speed — affects fiat arrival time
- GF-PAY spread policy — auto-adjusts with market volatility
- Order size — large orders can use custom quotes
