Verify the DAI token contract on the payout chain. DAI targets the US dollar, but the market price can vary. Compare the actual amount received after fees.
Decide which network your wallet or app expects for DAI before comparing rates. Include any extra transfer or bridge needed to use the payout on another network.
How to convert ETH to DAI
- Check that a live provider quotes your ETH deposit network and the DAI payout network you need.
- Compare the amount of DAI you would receive after fees, then confirm the receiving address and any memo or tag required for your payout.
- If you go ahead, follow the live order’s deposit instructions. Keep the order ID and the ETH transaction reference, then verify the DAI payout in your receiving wallet.
How to compare ETH to DAI rates
For a rough pre-fee estimate, multiply the ETH amount by the rate expressed in DAI per ETH. Then compare the actual DAI payout for the same ETH amount and network. Check whether the withdrawal fee comes out of what you send or is charged separately.
