I tried using: [https://dispenser.testnet.aws.algodev.network/](https://dispenser.testnet.aws.algodev.network/)

But it does not let me retrieve USDC for some reason.

You need to opt-in to the ASA before you can use it or if you use Myalgo Wallet, you can swap your test Algo for the listed test coins eg USDT, USDC…

I recommend this one: [Pact](https://testnet.pact.fi/swap?pair=ALGO%3A0%2FUSDC%3A37074699) Asa: 37074699

Btw, there is no official USDC so each project has minted its own…

Folks guys has created asa 67395862 for example… [Folks Finance](https://testnet.folks.finance/faucet) But their testnet amm or algodex distribution is quite low…
