Getting paid should be easy, no matter where you work, who pays you, or what currency they use. That’s why we’re excited to announce a new update on Cleva: you can now receive stablecoins like USDC and USDT directly into your Cleva USD account.
This update gives freelancers, creators, and remote workers more flexibility, fewer restrictions, and greater peace of mind when getting paid by international clients or platform.
Why stablecoins matter
Stablecoins like USDT and USDC give you the best of both worlds: the global reach of crypto, and the predictability of the US dollar. Until now, receiving stablecoins often meant extra steps and multiple apps. Not anymore.
With Cleva, you can now accept stablecoins payments directly and access your funds as usable USD.

- Receive USDT or USDC from clients or platforms.
- Hold your balance securely in USD.

- Convert to naira when needed.
- Earn Cleva Points whenever you receive a stablecoin deposit.
