ETH on Arbitrum
Arbitrum One is an Ethereum layer 2 with sub-second blocks and very low fees.
For ETH, the network cost of forwarding comes out of the payment itself: you receive the amount paid minus our fee and the gas of the forward.

ETH on Arbitrum payments: questions
What is the minimum ETH on Arbitrum payment?
0.0001 ETH. A smaller payment is still recorded and shown in /logs/, but it is not forwarded, so that the network cost can never eat the payment.
How long until a ETH on Arbitrum payment reaches my wallet?
We forward it once it has 20 confirmations on Arbitrum, which takes about 5 seconds on average, then send your server a signed callback with the forwarding transaction id.
Who pays the network fee for ETH on Arbitrum?
The gas of the forwarding transaction is taken from the ETH payment itself, so you never hold ETH for fees.
Do I need an account to accept ETH on Arbitrum?
No. There is no sign-up and no API key: one request to /arbitrum/eth/create/ with your callback URL and your EVM wallet returns a deposit address. Funds go straight to that wallet.
