ONRAMP VS OFFRAMP
Use the Zcash onramp to buy ZEC or the offramp to cash it out
A Zcash onramp moves from fiat into ZEC. A Zcash offramp starts with ZEC and moves toward fiat. zcashto.cash offers a separate flow for each job.

Frequently asked questions
Can I buy Zcash on zcashto.cash?

What is a Zcash offramp?
A Zcash offramp converts ZEC value into another asset or fiat destination. zcashto.cash routes ZEC to Base USDC before the Peer cashout stage.
Why does the route use Base USDC?
Base USDC is the asset used to create the Peer cashout. The USDC reaches your connected wallet before you review and sign that cashout.
