How to order
Ordering opens shortly. No payment address is published yet.
We deliberately do not display a payment address before the automated delivery path is verified end to end. Taking money we cannot fill immediately is worse than making you wait.
⛔ Do not pay from an exchange account. Delivery goes to whatever address the payment came from. An exchange withdrawal address is custodial — you do not hold its key, so you could never touch the sETH sent there, and it cannot be recovered.
Pay from a wallet whose private key you control (MetaMask, Rabby, Foundry, a hardware wallet — anything where the same address works on Sepolia). Also avoid smart-contract wallets such as a Safe unless you have actually deployed it at that address on Sepolia; an address that holds no contract on Sepolia cannot spend what it receives there.
Price
Flat rate: $0.25 per sETH (1 USD = 4 sETH). The tiers below are conveniences, not required amounts — the delivered amount is always computed from what actually arrived, as round(USD × 4, 4), so overpaying or underpaying is defined behaviour rather than a support ticket.
Tiers. Anything below 10 sETH is cheaper to get free — see the FAQ.
| Amount | Price | Tier |
|---|---|---|
| 10 sETH | $2.50 | Standard |
| 20 sETH | $5.00 | Standard |
| 50 sETH | $12.50 | Standard |
| 100 sETH | $25.00 | Standard |
| 200 sETH | $50.00 | Standard |
| 500 sETH | $125.00 | Bulk |
| 1000 sETH | $250.00 | Bulk |
$1 trial order — 4 sETH, once per address. If you would rather not take our word for any of this, spend a dollar and watch the delivery arrive. That is what the trial is for.
Payments under $0.50 are treated as dust and are not turned into orders.
Stock — verify it yourself
Current inventory: 6921.1 sETH. The holding addresses are public information. Open them on Etherscan and read the balances yourself instead of believing this number:
- 0x876bc85092477269afa29b6f3c1bbb4e9d0a8e13 — 3384.75 sETH
- 0x09ab4919ed68e4dc1040cd1c8771adb1417fbb5f — 1845.17 sETH
- 0x5ce27b8667bc96624af1c9a878e38f09c3b21679 — 1691.19 sETH
⭐ One order can never exceed 2076 sETH — 30% of current stock.
This is a deliberate limit on how much money you are allowed to hand us at once. It keeps every accepted order fillable from stock on hand, and it caps your exposure before you have seen a single delivery.
It costs us revenue on the largest orders. That is the point: a seller intending to take the money and vanish would raise this limit, not publish one. Need more than the cap? Place a second order after the first one lands.
When you should not buy from us
If you need less than about 7.5 sETH, use a free faucet. That is roughly the 24-hour ceiling on the largest public Sepolia faucet, per address and per IP, and inside that ceiling paying anyone is a waste of money.
Buying makes sense past that line: a 100 sETH requirement is about two weeks of daily faucet claiming, a 1,000 sETH requirement is not realistically reachable that way at all. Load testing, fee-market simulation, contract deployment suites, running many funded test accounts, and CI that burns gas on every run are the cases that hit the ceiling.
We would rather say this on the front page than take $2 from someone who did not need to spend it.
Verify any order yourself
Every order is queryable without an account, a login, or an API key. Anyone you show a payment transaction hash to can independently confirm what was delivered:
Open the verification page → Paste a payment transaction hash or an address — no account, nothing to install.
GET /order?tx=<hash>GET /orders?address=<addr>GET /stockResponses are JSON and include the order status, the amount, your address, the payment transaction hash and the Sepolia delivery transaction hash. GET /price returns the current rate and tier table; GET /healthz reports whether automated payment intake is live.
What happens when something goes wrong
- Stock runs short mid-order — the order is marked
partial: you receive what was available and the undelivered remainder is refunded to your paying address. - Delivery fails — the payment is refunded to the address it came from. We do not keep money for sETH we did not send.
- A delivery was broadcast but not yet confirmed — the order shows
needs_attentionalong with the transaction hash, so you can check it on Sepolia yourself. We will not broadcast a second delivery until the first one is resolved, because sending twice is how a shop quietly runs out of stock. - Wrong amount sent — you receive
round(USD × 4, 4)sETH. There is no failure mode here, only a different amount. - You paid from an address you do not control — this is the one case nobody can fix, which is why the warning is at the top of the page rather than in the small print.
There is no delivery address field anywhere on this site, so a delivery cannot be sent to the wrong person. We never ask for a private key, a seed phrase, or a signature.
How refunds actually work, stated plainly: deliveries are automatic, but refunds are sent by hand. A refund has to go back on the chain you paid from, and the key that can spend on that chain is deliberately not kept on the server that runs this site — that is a security decision we are not willing to trade away for convenience. Every refund owed is recorded against your order the moment it arises, so a refund cannot be quietly forgotten; you can see it on your order page. If you are owed one and it has not arrived, quote your order id.
FAQ
- Why pay for Sepolia ETH when faucets give it away free?
- Free faucets are rate-limited, not free-flowing. The largest one caps you at about 7.5 sETH per 24 hours, per address and per IP. If your test suite needs 100 sETH today, the free route is roughly two weeks of daily claiming. That is the only thing being sold here: not the token, the waiting. If you need less than 7.5 sETH, use the free faucet — it is the better option and we will tell you so.
- How long does delivery take?
- Delivery is automated and normally lands within about 60 seconds of your payment confirming on the paying chain. Sepolia block time is roughly 12 seconds, so the payment confirmation is usually the slow half. If a delivery is delayed, the order still exists and is queryable by your payment transaction hash, so nothing depends on us answering a message.
- Which chains and currencies can I pay with?
- Ethereum mainnet and Base. On Ethereum mainnet: native ETH, USDC, USDT or DAI. On Base: native ETH or USDC. The sETH is always delivered on Sepolia regardless of which chain you paid from.
- What happens if I send the wrong amount?
- Nothing breaks. The amount delivered is always computed from what actually arrived: sETH =
round(USD paid × 4, 4). The listed tiers are conveniences, not required amounts, so overpaying or underpaying simply changes how much sETH you receive. Payments below $0.50 are treated as dust and are not turned into orders. - Can I get a refund?
- If we cannot deliver, you get your money back. When stock runs short mid-order the order is marked
partial: you receive the sETH that was available and the undelivered remainder is refunded to the address you paid from. Delivered testnet tokens themselves are not refundable, but every delivery has a Sepolia transaction hash you can check independently, so there is always an objective record of what happened. - Can my account get banned for buying testnet ETH?
- There is no account to ban. You never register, never log in, and never give us a private key, seed phrase or signature. A purchase is two ordinary on-chain transactions: your payment, and our transfer of sETH to the same address. Sepolia ETH has no monetary value and exists for development and testing.
- Why do you refuse large orders?
- Any single order is capped at 30% of current stock. Capping order size limits how much money a buyer can hand over before seeing a delivery, and it guarantees we can always fill what we accept. It costs us revenue on purpose — that is the point, because a seller planning to take the money and disappear would do the opposite.
- Is Sepolia being shut down?
- Read the dates carefully, because the published one is stale. The official end-of-life notice still says 2026-09-30, but core developers scheduled a Sepolia network fork barely 33 hours before that date, which is not how a network being switched off is treated. On the developer forum the actual proposal is to deprecate Sepolia after a replacement testnet launches and sunset it fully in Q2/Q3 2027 — proposed, not finalised. Practical advice: buy what your current work needs, and do not stockpile sETH for 2027.
