USDC Stablecoin Funding at IBKR

Move Capital at
the Speed of Opportunity

Interactive Brokers enables 24/7 account funding with stablecoin.

Capital Mobility Designed for Global Investing

Stablecoins offer a faster, more flexible way to move dollar-denominated capital into your brokerage account. For investors who value speed, global access, and operational efficiency, stablecoins can simplify funding without changing your investment strategy.

  • Efficient global funding
    Move U.S. dollar value across borders without wire delays, correspondent banking friction, or unnecessary FX conversions.
  • 24/7 liquidity
    Blockchain-based transfers operate continuously, giving you greater control over when and how you move funds.
  • Faster access to capital
    Stablecoin transfers can settle in minutes, including outside traditional banking hours, helping you deploy capital when opportunities arise.
  • Use capital already in digital dollars
    If you already hold stablecoins, funding directly avoids extra conversion steps, fees, and timing risk.
  • Price stability
    Stablecoins are designed to track the U.S. dollar, making them suitable for funding, margin collateral, or idle cash.
  • Designed for funding, not speculation
    Stablecoins function as a payment and settlement rail. They provide efficiency and portability without changing your exposure to markets.

Eligible Interactive Brokers LLC clients can fund their accounts by sending USDC, a digital asset backed 1:1 by the US dollar, from their crypto wallet to a secure wallet provided through a collaboration with zerohash. Once received, the stablecoin is automatically converted to US dollars and credited to the client's brokerage account. We expect to add support for Ripple Coin (RLUSD) and PayPal's Coin (PYUSD) in the coming weeks.

IBKR does not charge fees for stablecoin deposits. Clients are responsible for any fees associated with the blockchain network. A low conversion fee of 0.30% per deposit, with a minimum fee of USD 1.00, is applied by zerohash.
