Find out where you can do it. We compare live order books of 10 exchanges and show how much Ethereum you really get for your USDT, after all costs.
Splitting the order across exchanges brings no benefit here. Best to buy everything on Binance.
For 2,500 USDT you currently get the most ETH on Binance: 1.032673 ETH. The least favourable exchange (Kraken) gives you the equivalent of 18.35 USDT (0.73%) less.
Exchanges with a direct ETH/USDT market: Binance, OKX, Crypto.com, Kanga Global, Coinbase, Bitstamp, Kraken. Elsewhere you need a currency conversion or an intermediate currency, which usually adds cost.
Binance wins both on trading costs alone and with deposit and withdrawal included.
For 250 USDT the best is OKX, for 25,000 USDT it is Binance. With large amounts order book depth matters more than the headline rate.
Even for 25,000 USDT, splitting the order across exchanges brings no benefit, so one exchange is enough.
You deposit USDT with a crypto transfer from another wallet or exchange; the sender pays the network fee.

Ethereum is the second-largest cryptocurrency and the network behind most DeFi apps and stablecoins. The ETH withdrawal fee depends on network load; some exchanges offer withdrawals via layer-2 networks (e.g. Arbitrum, Optimism, Base), which are much cheaper. ETH markets are usually less liquid than BTC, so differences between exchanges on larger amounts tend to be more pronounced.
Paying with USDT means depositing it by crypto transfer from another wallet or exchange. Choose a network the receiving exchange supports and double-check the address and memo. USDT pairs are deepest on global exchanges (Binance, OKX), while MiCA-licensed exchanges may not support it.
Enter an amount in any of 30+ currencies (dollars, euro, pounds, złoty and more) or in stablecoins, and choose what you want to buy: Bitcoin, Ethereum, USDT or USDC.
We pull hundreds of live offers from every exchange and check every buying route, including currency conversion and intermediate currencies, e.g. GBP → USDT → BTC.
Slippage for your amount, trading fee, currency conversion, deposit and withdrawal. No hidden costs and no comparing headline rates alone.
You get a ranking with the exact amount you will receive and, for large orders, the optimal split across several exchanges.
We pull data directly from the exchanges’ public APIs. More exchanges and cryptocurrencies are coming.
