How to redeem Ripple USD for fiat USD

To convert Ripple USD stablecoin to fiat USD, you need to send the required amount in RLUSD to Ripple's crypto wallet on either the XRPL or Ethereum networks.

Once Ripple receives the funds, it transfers the equivalent amount in USD to your bank account. Please note that settlement times for fiat payments may vary based on your bank's processing speed.
