# Overview

> Receive Stablecoins

The **"Receive Stablecoin"** feature allows users to accept stablecoin payments (like **USDT**) directly into their Shiga wallet. This function supports **automatic conversion to fiat currency (USD, EUR, GBP)** if desired, depositing funds into a linked bank account.

### **Why This Feature is Necessary**

1. **Seamless Crypto-to-Fiat Conversion**
   * Enables instant conversion of stablecoins into spendable cash without manual exchanges.
2. **Business & Merchant Payments**
   * Businesses can accept crypto payments while receiving fiat, avoiding volatility risks.
3. **Cross-Border Transactions**
   * Faster and cheaper than traditional banking for international payments.
4. **DeFi & Banking Bridge**
   * Connects decentralized finance (DeFi) with traditional banking, making crypto usable in everyday finances.
5. **Flexible Receiving Options**
   * Users can choose between:
     * **Pure stablecoin deposits** (for crypto transactions).
     * **Auto-conversion to fiat** (for cash liquidity).
     * **Payment links** (for easy invoicing).

**How to Receive Stablecoin**

1. On the Shiga platform, locate and select the **"Receive"** option.
2. A menu titled **"Choose Your Preferred Method"** will appear with three options:

   * **Receive Stablecoin** (direct stablecoin deposits).
   * **Receive Fiat** (convert stablecoins to local currency).
   * **Payment Link** (generate a link for payment requests).
