# Minting & Redeeming

> Direct minting and redemption for institutions and power users

## Overview

Onboarded market makers, institutions, and power users can use our API and dashboard to mint and redeem USDH directly via our issuer, Bridge.

Today, we support minting from fiat USD via Wire and ACH and from USDC across Ethereum Mainnet, Arbitrum, Base, and Polygon, directly to USDH on HyperEVM or HyperCore. In the inverse, we support redemptions to the same inbound assets via HyperEVM. We plan to continue extending our support for additional assets and payment rails.

<Info>
  **All minting and redemption is 1:1** with both fiat USD and USDC in both
  directions, with **no costs** to onboarded organizations.
