Official announcements reveal that Circle’s Cross-Chain Transfer Protocol (CCTP) now supports a fast transfer prepaid fee function. Previously, protocol fees were deducted directly from the USDC transfer amount on the destination chain; with this update, developers can pre-quote and collect fees using the source chain’s native gas token or USDC before a transfer executes, simplifying cross-chain transfer fee handling and ensuring users receive their expected USDC amount. The prepaid fee mechanism primarily enhances fee predictability in cross-chain applications. Users no longer face reduced received amounts due to extra deductions on the destination chain side. Additionally, the CCTP Quote API uniformly calculates fees across all supported chains, integrating Fast Transfer and Forwarding fees into a single quote—removing the need for developers to build separate systems to compute multiple protocol fees. Furthermore, fees can be paid directly with the source chain’s native token, with no reduction or impact on the actual transferred USDC balance. Currently, the prepaid fee feature supports USDC transfers on all EVM chains covered by CCTP, but does not yet support transfers initiated from Solana; transfers to Solana remain available. Developers can retrieve specific fee quotes via the Quote API and integrate this feature, with relevant developers advised to refer to CCTP’s official documentation to build more predictable cross-chain USDC transfer workflows.
