Get testnet funds

How the automatic testnet faucet tops up your wallet when you connect.

Arc Testnet is a test network, and its tokens have no real value. RealTime can top up your wallet automatically, so you don't have to look for a faucet.

How it works​

When you connect a wallet on Arc Testnet, the app asks the exchange to fund it. If the automatic faucet is enabled on this deployment, and your wallet holds less than 10 USDC, the exchange sends you:

  • 100 USDC (USDC is also the gas token on Arc Testnet)

This happens before sign-in, with no action from you. While it runs you see Setting up your testnet balance, then Test funds delivered with a link to each transaction and a Start trading button.

The funds arrive in your wallet

The faucet sends tokens to your wallet, not to your trading account. Deposit them before you trade.

Limits​

LimitDefault
Top-up only when your balance is below10 USDC
Once per wallet every24 hours
Requests per IP address per day5

The deployment's operator can change these defaults and can switch the faucet off.

Didn't receive anything?​

Nothing is shown if you were not eligible:

  • your balance is already at or above the threshold,
  • you were topped up recently,
  • the IP limit was reached, or
  • the faucet is switched off.

After you sign in, check your wallet balance in the Deposit dialog (Wallet Balance), or with Open Block Explorer in the account menu. You can also check it directly in your wallet. If you still need funds, wait for the cooldown to pass and reconnect.
