Accept Mantle (MNT) payments
MNT is the token of Mantle, an Ethereum layer-2 network. It exists in two places: as an ERC-20 on Ethereum, and as the gas coin of the Mantle network itself. easyway accepts the Ethereum one, with the same checkout and API as ETH and the stablecoins. This page covers the contract that counts, the network trap, and what pricing a sale in a volatile token means.
Token, network and limits
| Token | Network | Contract | Confirmations | Min. withdrawal | Withdrawal fee |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mantle (MNT) | Ethereum · ERC-20 | 0x3c3a81e81dc49A522A592e7622A7E711c06bf354 | 12 | 1.1 MNT | 3.8 MNT (flat) |
This is the Ethereum MNT in Mantle's official token list, and the address Mantle's own bridge contract on Ethereum (0x95fC37A27a2f68e3A647CDc081F0A89bb47c3012, listed in Mantle's documentation) reports as its L1 MNT token. An "MNT" at any other Ethereum address is not this token.
Ethereum, not the Mantle network
Most people who hold MNT keep it on the Mantle network, because that is where it pays for gas. Exchanges usually offer both networks in their withdrawal menu, and the addresses look the same (0x…). The checkout labels the coin "Ethereum · ERC-20": MNT sent on the Mantle network to an invoice address does not reach the invoice, and the same goes for wrapped MNT (WMNT). Tell customers to pick Ethereum (ERC-20) when they withdraw; the guide to paying from an exchange shows the network menu and the other common mistakes.
What paying looks like for the customer
The customer picks MNT, gets an amount and a fresh 0x… address with a QR code, and sends exactly that. A personal wallet needs a little ETH for gas; an exchange withdrawal is paid for by the exchange.
easyway tracks the address's MNT balance, so a direct transfer, an exchange batch payout or a multisig all count the same. The invoice is paid after 12 confirmations, usually a few minutes. Transfers under 0.01 MNT are skipped; several larger ones add up. Short or late payments are described in the underpaid and late payments guide.
Price risk and fees
MNT is not a stablecoin. On a USD invoice the MNT amount is fixed from the exchange rate when the customer selects the coin; the payment is credited and later withdrawn in MNT, so price changes after that are on your side. An invoice priced directly in MNT (currency = "MNT_ERC20") has no conversion at all.
The platform fee is a flat 0.5% of each confirmed payment: 5000 MNT received leaves 4975 MNT on your balance. The withdrawal fee and minimum are fixed MNT amounts set from the gas of an ERC-20 transfer when MNT was listed. Every coin's numbers are on the pricing page.
Integrating
There is no MNT-specific code: create an invoice with the API (or a payment link if you don't write code), send the customer to the hosted checkout and ship the order when the signed invoice.paid webhook arrives. Runnable examples are in the quickstart; the sandbox guide walks through a test payment.
Common questions
Is easyway part of Mantle? No. easyway is independent and simply accepts the token; it has no partnership with Mantle.
Where is the MNT kept after a payment? On your easyway balance until you withdraw it. Live withdrawals only go to addresses you whitelisted with two-factor authentication; see security.
Which other Ethereum tokens can I accept? ETH (accepting Ethereum), Sky (SKY), The Graph (GRT), Ethena (ENA), Chainlink (LINK) and the dollar stablecoins, on the same invoice addresses.
