Frequently asked questions

What does OTC mean?: Over-the-counter (OTC) means trades are arranged directly with our desk rather than on a public order book. You get a confirmed, negotiated rate for your full amount — ideal for larger tickets.
Is there a minimum trade size?: OTC pricing is bespoke and best suited to larger amounts. Contact sales@onlink.africa and the desk will confirm terms for your ticket size.
How is settlement handled?: KES settles over local rails such as bank transfer or M-PESA; USDT/USDC settles to the wallet you nominate. The desk agrees the rails and timing with you before execution.
Is USDT the same rate as USDC?: Yes. We treat USDT and USDC at USD parity (1 USDT = 1 USDC = 1 USD), so both carry the same KES on-ramp and off-ramp rate.
