❓ FAQ
You asked; we answered.
What token pairs do you support?
We support over 900K unique token pairs! As such, we have included a searchable text document below.
Note: The listing convention for token pairs in this document are as follows:
"home_currency-home_chain-away_currency-away_chain"
So, for example, if you see "usdc-bsc-bonk-sol"
, this means that we support the token pair USDC on Binance Smart Chain to BONK on Solana.

What’s "Standard Rate" quotes?
Standard Rate: The rate is based on real-time market conditions and can change during the transaction. You may receive more or less than the estimated amount. Comes with lower fees but carries some risk due to price volatility.
Do users need gas on the destination chain?
No - Swaps will deliver the destination asset directly to your wallet. The only gas that is needed is from the home chain.
How long does a swap take?
Most swaps complete in under 120 seconds. If you’re bridging between chains, it may take slightly longer depending on network congestion and finality times.
Can I use my own UI?
Yes - since Swaps is fully API-driven and 'headless,' a front end must be built around our endpoints.
What is the difference between Get Swap Quote
and Execute a Swap
?
Get Swap Quote
and Execute a Swap
?Get Swap Quote: Calculates how much of the destination asset the user will receive (including routes, fees, etc.)
Execute Swap: Commits the swap and returns the deposit address; this is where funds should be sent from the user’s wallet.
What is the best way to track a swap transactions completion status?
Use the response from Execute Swap, which includes a status
, depositAddress
, and transaction metadata. We recommend polling for status updates every 15 seconds after your initial poll, as swaps typically take around 120 seconds.
Can I use Swaps.xyz only for cross chain swaps, or vice-versa?
Yes - you can route however you'd like on Swaps.xyz. This solution is 100% customizable, so if you'd like to only route to Swaps.xyz for either same or cross chain swaps, that is entirely possible.
