How to Swap Tokens

A swap exchanges one asset for another. The quote is live and can change, so verify the token identity, network, route, and minimum received amount immediately before confirming.

Step-by-step

  1. 1

    Select the sending and receiving assets and confirm both networks.

  2. 2

    Review the route, estimated receive amount, price impact, slippage, fees, and minimum received amount.

  3. 3

    Check the wallet prompt matches the action you intended to approve or sign.

  4. 4

    Keep the receipt and transaction hash until the destination balance is confirmed.

Safety warning

Never approve a lookalike token or sign a wallet prompt you do not understand. Failed on-chain attempts can still consume gas.

Common mistakes

  • Choosing a token with a similar symbol
  • Ignoring the minimum received amount
  • Relying on a quote after its window expires
What is a token swap?

A token swap exchanges one asset for another. It can be on one network or part of a cross-chain route. The quote shows the proposed route, but availability and prices can change before you submit.

How do I perform a swap?

Choose the asset and network you are sending and receiving, review the quote and minimum received amount, confirm the wallet or deposit instructions, and then follow the displayed route. Check the receipt until the destination transfer finishes.

What is slippage?

Slippage is the difference between an expected quote and the execution result when price or liquidity moves. Review the minimum received amount and avoid assuming a prior quote will remain available.

Why did my swap fail?

A swap can fail because of insufficient balance or gas, an expired quote, a rejected wallet prompt, token restrictions, liquidity changes, or a route outage. Check the receipt and source transaction first; failed on-chain attempts can still use gas.
