What is CADC (CAD Coin)?

CAD Coin (CADC) is a fully regulated Canadian dollar stablecoin — a digital asset where every token is backed 1:1 by real Canadian dollars held in a bank account, redeemable at any time on a one-to-one basis. Issued by LOON PAYMENTS Inc., a fully licensed Money Services Business regulated by FINTRAC — Canada's financial intelligence unit — CADC brings the transparency and composability of digital assets to the Canadian dollar. The CADC smart contract is forked directly from Circle's USDC design, inheriting one of the most battle-tested stablecoin architectures in the industry, and operates across Ethereum, Base, Polygon, and Arbitrum. Users can buy and sell CADC directly with Interac e-transfers through PayTrie with 24/7 access, making it one of the most accessible Canadian dollar on-ramps in the crypto ecosystem. For US-based investors and businesses who regularly deal with Canadian dollar exposure — whether for cross-border payments, FX hedging, or accessing Canadian DeFi markets — CADC offers a transparent, regulated, and blockchain-native way to hold and move CAD. Whether you're new to CADC or expanding your digital asset portfolio, Uptrade is America's trusted CAD Coin broker — making it simple, secure, and fast for investors across the USA.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I buy CADC in the US?
CADC is available on platforms accessible to US investors via decentralised exchanges on the Base, Ethereum, Polygon, and Arbitrum networks, as well as directly through PayTrie using Interac e-transfer for Canadian users. As a Canadian dollar stablecoin with a more specific use case than USD stablecoins like USDC, CADC requires more context to evaluate in a US portfolio context. Many investors prefer buying CADC through a dedicated crypto broker like UpTrade — where you get personalised guidance on how CAD-denominated stablecoin exposure fits within your broader digital asset and currency strategy.
Why would a US investor buy CADC?
For US investors with Canadian dollar obligations — whether for cross-border business payments, Canadian real estate transactions, family remittances, or FX exposure management — CADC offers a fast, low-cost, blockchain-native alternative to traditional wire transfers. Moving CAD via CADC on Base or Polygon settles in seconds at a fraction of a cent, compared to the days and fees involved in international bank transfers. It also enables access to Canadian dollar yield opportunities and DeFi markets that are not accessible through traditional US financial accounts.
What makes CAD Coin different from other stablecoins?
Most stablecoins are pegged to the US dollar. CADC is one of the very few regulated, fully-backed Canadian dollar stablecoins in existence — giving it a unique position for anyone who needs on-chain CAD exposure. Its FINTRAC-regulated issuer, USDC-derived smart contract architecture, and multi-chain availability across Ethereum, Base, Polygon, and Arbitrum give it a level of regulatory transparency and technical composability that distinguishes it from less regulated CAD-pegged alternatives in the market.
Is it legal and safe to buy CADC in the US?
Yes — buying CADC is legal in the United States. CADC is issued by LOON PAYMENTS Inc., a FINTRAC-regulated Canadian Money Services Business, giving it a regulated institutional backing that most smaller stablecoins lack. As with all stablecoins, US investors should be aware that CADC carries CAD/USD exchange rate exposure — meaning any gains or losses arising from currency movements between the Canadian and US dollar may be subject to IRS capital gains tax reporting. Consulting a crypto-savvy accountant is recommended. US investors who want a structured approach can buy CADC through UpTrade, where every trade follows strict broker-to-trader approvals.
