Accept USDC payments on Polygon

Deploy a Polygon PoS terminal on chain ID 137 and accept native USDC with POL used for gas.

Updated

Polygon settings

Production FRENT POS uses Polygon PoS mainnet, chain ID 137. The supported native USDC contract is 0x3c499c542cEF5E3811e1192ce70d8cC03d5c3359. POL pays network gas.

Merchant setup

Polygon uses a separate merchant terminal from Base. Connect the receiving wallet, review the configured Polygon factory and immutable values, then approve deployment. The terminal remains pending until FRENT verifies the onchain result.

Customer payment

The customer needs the supported native USDC on Polygon PoS and enough POL for approval and payment gas. Bridged USDC variants and arbitrary tokens do not satisfy verification.

The paid request retains its Polygon transaction hash and explorer link. For a side-by-side decision, read Choosing Base or Polygon.
