Anything uSwap routes. BTC (on-chain or Lightning), ETH and major L2s (Base, Arbitrum, Optimism, Polygon, Scroll), USDT (TRC-20 / ERC-20 / BEP-20 / Polygon / Arbitrum / Solana / TON), USDC, XMR, SOL, BNB, LTC, DOGE, NEAR, TON, TRX, plus 20+ more. Send what you hold; the engine handles the rest.

How it works
You’re buying an Amazon gift code from uSwap. Send any supported crypto to the deposit address on the bridge page, and the gift code arrives in your inbox once the chain confirms. The engine handles whatever needs to happen between deposit and code; you see one swap.
The relevant facts:
- Pay in any supported crypto. Send BTC, send USDT on Solana, send XMR, send whatever you actually hold. The engine resolves whatever you send into a gift code on the other side.
- No uSwap account. No email signup, no password, no KYC, no withdrawal review. The only identifying data we collect is the delivery email.
- No Amazon account needed for the purchase. You’ll need an Amazon account to spend the code (same as a gift card bought at any 7-Eleven), but that’s a separate problem.
Why this exists
The point of “buy Amazon with crypto” isn’t that crypto holders can’t already buy Amazon stuff with a debit card. It’s that there are real, frequent situations where the debit card doesn’t work:
- You hold a privacy-preserving asset (XMR is the obvious one) and you don’t want to move it through a custodial off-ramp that’s going to ask for ID, freeze a withdrawal, or report a transaction.
- You’re outside the US banking system — temporarily or permanently — and your card keeps getting declined by Amazon’s fraud system. A gift code sidesteps the card entirely.
- You’re gifting. Sending a friend an Amazon code in a Telegram chat is the lowest-friction way to give someone a present that’s actually useful.
- You don’t trust the centralized off-ramp. Coinbase, Kraken, etc. all have policy-driven account locks. A 30-minute swap to a code you’ll use this week is much harder to lock than a balance sitting on an exchange.
What you can buy
Denominations: $5, $10, $25, $50, $100, $250, $500. That covers small recurring purchases (Kindle books, coffee runs through Whole Foods), mid-sized one-off buys (clothes, home goods), and larger gifts.
You can buy multiple in a single session. There’s no per-day limit on the engine’s side; in practice the rate-limiting factor is your patience for serial confirmations.
The fee picture
The crypto leg costs zero. There is no platform fee on the swap, no spread baked into the quote. The cost of running the engine is funded by the retail markup on the gift code itself — a sliver of the spread between the wholesale gift card price and face value goes back to uSwap. The model is identical to how any gift-card seller works; uSwap is the routing layer that lets you pay in whatever you actually hold.
You pay one cost: the gas / network fee on whichever chain you send from. BTC is whatever the mempool says. USDT-TRC20 is a fraction of a cent. The L2s are typically under $0.05.
What can go wrong (and what happens)
The honest version. Failure modes you might hit:
- You send to the wrong chain. The engine routes whatever you send anyway — it re-quotes against what arrived and offers market-replace, hold, or refund.
- You undersend. Same recovery flow. The quote refreshes to “here’s what your actual deposit buys.”
- You oversend. Same — the engine quotes the full deposit and asks how you want to proceed.
- A specific denomination is briefly out of stock. Rare but it happens, especially for higher-value cards. The intent moves to “hold” and you can either wait or refund.
- Email goes to spam. Check spam if you don’t see it in 20 minutes. The code is also surfaced in the bridge page so you have a second source.
There is no “swap failed, contact support, file a ticket, wait 72 hours” path. Everything is on the same page as the original quote.
What this isn’t
Worth being explicit about what’s not on offer here:
- Not a UK / EU / other-region Amazon gift code. US redemption only. If non-US storefronts are what you need, this isn’t the product.
- Not a refund / chargeback path back to Amazon. Once you have the code, the relationship is between you and Amazon. uSwap can’t reverse the gift card.
- Not a card-only checkout assistant. This is a gift code, redeemable on amazon.com. Some Amazon purchase categories (mostly subscriptions and a few digital goods) don’t accept gift balance; that’s an Amazon rule, not a uSwap limit.
