# Minting USP on Platform

Minting allows users to convert their **USDC** into **USP tokens**, following a secure and transparent on-chain process through Piku’s official platform.

1. **Access the Platform**\
   Visit [piku.co/app ](https://piku.co/app)and connect your wallet. Complete KYC verification to enable minting.
2. **Initiate Minting**\
   Click the **“Mint”** button and enter the **USDC amount** you wish to convert into USP. The interface will automatically display a detailed breakdown of your transaction.

3. **Review and Confirm**\
   Review all minting details carefully before proceeding. You’ll need to complete the following wallet approvals:

* **Authorize Spending Cap** – grants the contract access to your stablecoins.
* **Authorize Mint Transaction** – executes the minting and finalizes your USP issuance.

4. **Receive USP**\
   Once confirmed on-chain, your newly minted USP tokens will appear directly in your wallet.
