FAQ

Why should I buy Goerli ETH on this website instead of Uniswap?

When you buy Goerli ETH on our website, you skip Uniswap protocol fees as well as Swap And Bridge fees that on Ethereum mainnet can be really high (you can check the latest Swap And Bridge fees here).
We send Goerli ETH directly to your testnet wallet - there is no need to bridge it from mainnet to testnet. So it's easier, faster, cheaper in fees and more convenient, because you can pay in many cryptocurrencies using one of the 4 networks:  Polygon, Arbitrum One, Optimism or Ethereum. There is also no slippage when you buy larger amount as we are not a liquidity pool and the price of Goerli ETH is fixed!

How to buy Goerli ETH?

This service is run by a code. If you would like to buy Goerli ETH and try out our service, simply start small. Send 1 USDC, 1 USDT or 1 DAI on Polygon, Arbitrum One, Optimism or Ethereum network and see how fast you will get your Goerli ETH. You can also send $1 worth of UNI, MATIC, LINK or ETH/WETH. Using Polygon network you will save on fees a lot! On Ethereum network you will pay for transfer the most!

How does it work?

We offer you a PREMIUM service where you can buy Goerli ETH in large amounts fast. We run a cloud-based server that monitors Ethereum, Polygon, Arbitrum One and Optimism mainnents, as well as Goerli testnet 24/7. We use Alchemy as a node provider. They have the industry leading websocket solution that provides a constant and stable connection to the blockchain. As soon as an incoming transfer to our wallet is detected, the code will execute a transfer of Goerli ETH to the same address the incoming transfer was detected from.

How fast will I receive my tokens when I buy Goerli ETH?

It's really fast! When funds arrive to our wallet, a transfer of your Goerli ETH happens instantly. It should be mined in the next Goerli testnet block.

How much Goerli ETH can I buy?

You can buy as little as 4 Goerli ETH for $1. The maximum amount is up to you. Please always check the available amount here and do not buy more than 30% of this amount at once. For example, if there is 10k Goerli ETH available, you can buy up to 3k at once. If you need more, please make a second purchase that doesn't exceed 30% of updated balance, etc. This is to avoid draining all Goerli ETH. You can also contact us for a custom amount.

What if I make a transfer but I don't get Goerli ETH?

This is really rare situation. This may be caused by a node or a cloud service downtime which almost doesn't happen, because our providers (Alchemy and AWS) have over 99.95% uptime. The reason may be also a network overload. Then interacting with a blockchain is difficult, but in such case you will probably notice problems with sending us funds and your wallet will show a network error. If you don't get your Goerli ETH within 1h, please contact us and we will check what the problem is.

Is it possible to buy Goerli ETH with other crypto than ERC-20 token?

Yes, it is possible to buy Goerli ETH with tokens other than ERC-20. If you would like to buy Goerli ETH and pay from an exchange or in other crypto than mentioned in 'BUY GOERLI ETH' page, please contact us. We accept many cryptocurrencies, like ADA, XRP, LTC, etc., via for example Binance Pay, however it's CEX and we'd like to avoid it. :) In case you choose Binance Pay or other exchange transfer, the delivery time and wallet address will be customized to your needs. PLEASE DON'T SEND CRYPTO FROM EXCHANGE TO OUR WALLET BEFORE CONTACTING US!

Why I can't send you crypto from an exchange?

The code that runs this service detects ERC-20 transfers to our wallet and sends Goerli ETH to the same address the transfer came from (as the ERC-20 token address is the same for mainnet and testnet). If you send funds from an exchange that doesn't support Goerli testnet, the Goerli ETH will be sent automatically to that exchange address but you will not have access to it. Always send us funds from the wallet you have private keys to, or contact us for a custom solution.

Why I can't buy Goerli ETH with credit card or PayPal?

We prefer peer-to-peer payments where no middleman can freeze or cancel your transaction, because they don't like it for some reason. This is why you can buy Goerli ETH only using blockchain transfers.

What if I send wrong crypto?

If you would like to buy Goerli ETH but send wrong crypto to our address then please contact us. If it's ERC-20 token then we will send you the funds back, but a transfer gas fee will be deducted (this is to avoid spam attacks to our wallet). We can also consider sending you Goerli ETH in exchange for that crypto, if it's the one we would like to keep. You will choose a scenario that fits you the best. IF YOU SEND NOT ERC-20 TOKEN TO OUR WALLET - IT WILL BE LOST!

What if I send wrong amount of crypto?

There is no such thing! Our code will calculate the amount you send in ratio of $1 = 4 Goerli ETH. You will be sent the amount of Goerli ETH you paid for, rounded to 4 decimal places. For example if you send $1.99 you will get 7.96 Goerli ETH, for $5.11 you will get 20.44 Goerli ETH, etc. Please remember, the minimum amount to send is $1 worth of assests, and the maxiumum amount you can purchase at once is 30% of available balance.

Why do I have to pay if I can get Goerli ETH from a faucet for free?

We offer you a PREMIUM service where you can buy Goerli ETH in large amounts fast. If you don't want to pay for instant delivery - it's really fine, please use faucets instead to get a little bit of Goerli ETH every day.

How do you calculate the price of 'real' ETH and other ERC-20 assets?

When you buy Goerli ETH with crypto other than stablecoins, we use Chainlink Data Feeds to determine the current ETH and other cryptocurrencies prices. This method is used by most of the dexes, because it minimizes the risk of price manipulation. Here you can read more about this solution. We round each calculation to 4 decimal places.
