Can I buy stocks with crypto (USDT, USDC)?

Yes, as stock tokens: Catch takes USDC or ETH on Base, not USDT, so swap USDT to USDC on your exchange first, withdraw it on the Base network to the address Catch shows under Add money and buy any of the 70 stocks and ETFs on its list, 24/7, for 0.50% once per move, $0.10 minimum. Each is a token that tracks a US-listed stock or ETF, issued by Coinbase or by Robinhood Assets (Jersey) Limited, not by Catch, and the issuers say they are not available to persons in the US.

From crypto to a stock token

  1. Swap USDT to USDC

    If you hold USDT, swap it to USDC on your exchange first. Catch does not take USDT.

  2. Send USDC on Base

    Withdraw at least $5 of USDC from your exchange on the Base network to the address Catch shows under Add money. Only send on Base or Robinhood Chain; other networks may be lost.

  3. Buy

    Pick the stock, check the price and the fee, then slide to buy. Catch charges 0.50% once per move, $0.10 minimum.

What Catch takes

Catch takes USDC or ETH on Base, or USDG or ETH on Robinhood Chain, not USDT. Confirm your exchange lets you withdraw USDC on the Base network before you send.

Your money sits in one balance, held in dollars, across Base and Robinhood Chain, and moving it between them has no Catch fee.

Catch lists 70 stocks and ETFs: 17 have a Coinbase token on Base and 69 have a Robinhood token on Robinhood Chain. Each stock token is a token that tracks a US-listed stock or ETF. The tokens are issued by Coinbase on Base and by Robinhood Assets (Jersey) Limited on Robinhood Chain, not by Catch.

Where Catch is not a fit

Catch sells stock tokens held in your Catch wallet, not a brokerage account. If you want a brokerage account, Catch is not a fit.

If you live in the US, Catch is not a fit: Coinbase says its stock tokens are not available to persons in the US and other restricted places. Robinhood says its Stock Tokens are not available to residents of the US, Canada, the UK or Switzerland.

No USDC yet? You can also pay by card through MoonPay, though card payments are not available in every country yet.
