Question 1

How do token swaps work on Swaps?

Accepted Answer

Pick the source and destination tokens, connect a self-custody wallet, and approve the route. Swaps compares aggregator quotes — gas plus slippage included — and the trade settles on-chain directly to your wallet.

Question 2

What tokens and chains are supported for swaps?

Accepted Answer

Ethereum, Solana, Arbitrum, Optimism, Polygon, BNB Chain, Avalanche, and Base are all live, with hundreds of tokens per chain. Cross-chain pairs route through audited bridges where the corresponding bridge liquidity is available.

Question 3

Are swaps non-custodial?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Tokens never leave your wallet until you approve the trade, and the destination address is the same wallet — no Swaps-controlled account holds your funds.

Question 4

What does it cost to swap?

Accepted Answer

Swaps charges 0% platform fees on top of the aggregator quote. You pay the standard DEX spread (typically 0.1–0.5%) plus network gas for the chain you are swapping on.

Question 5

Why swap on-chain instead of buying with fiat?

Accepted Answer

When you already hold a token and want another, an on-chain swap skips the fiat onramp: no banking-hours delay, no card processor fees on top, and no extra KYC for typical sizes.

Question 6

How is slippage handled?

Accepted Answer

Each route shows the expected output and a configurable slippage tolerance. The trade reverts on-chain if the price moves more than your tolerance, so you never settle below the quoted floor.
