  • Arbitrum / Base / Optimism → under a minute
  • Ethereum → 1–5 minutes depending on gas
Step-by-step withdrawal

Three taps, and you’re paid.

01

Open the withdraw page

Click your profile icon in Polymarket and select Withdraw. Enter the amount of USDC you want to cash out.

02

Choose your destination

Pick the destination network (Polygon, Arbitrum, Base, Optimism, or Ethereum) and paste the wallet or exchange address you want the USDC to land in.

Pro tip · Always double-check the chain matches your destination address. Sending Polygon USDC to an Ethereum-only address will lose funds.
03

Confirm and wait

Sign the transaction. Polymarket handles the bridge if needed. Polygon → near-instant. Other chains → 1–5 minutes.

Common withdrawal issues

If something looks wrong.

My withdrawal is stuck “pending”

Solution · check Polygonscan with your transaction hash. Most “pending” cases are network congestion. If 30+ minutes pass, contact Polymarket support with the hash.

I sent USDC to the wrong chain

Solution · contact Polymarket support immediately. Some recoveries are possible if both chains use compatible address formats. Always verify the destination network before signing.

My exchange shows “deposit not detected”

Solution · confirm your exchange supports USDC on the chain you withdrew to. Most major exchanges support Polygon USDC; some only accept ERC-20.

Withdrawal FAQ

Frequently asked.

How long does a Polymarket withdrawal take?
Polygon withdrawals are near-instant. Arbitrum / Base / Optimism are typically under a minute. Ethereum mainnet is 1–5 minutes depending on gas.
Are there withdrawal fees?
Polymarket charges only the on-chain gas fee for the destination network. There's no platform withdrawal fee.
Can I withdraw to a centralized exchange?
Yes. Most exchanges accept USDC on Polygon. Use your exchange's deposit address as the destination, and confirm the destination network matches.
Is there a minimum withdrawal?
No fixed minimum, but consider gas. Withdrawing $5 with $2 in gas isn't practical. Aim for $50+ to make gas costs negligible.
