How to create a swap on Swapabit

Dec 10, 20255 min read

Swapabit is built for quick, non-custodial swaps. Use this checklist to move from picking coins to funding the deposit without guesswork.

1) Choose the assets and networks

  • In the From field, pick the coin and network you want to send.
  • In the To field, pick the coin and network you want to receive.
  • If you see network tags (BTC, ETH, BSC, Arbitrum, etc.), match them to the wallets you control—don’t assume a ticker implies a network.

2) Decide on fixed or floating

  • Use the rate toggle to switch between Floating (usually cheapest, follows live prices) and Fixed (locks the quote for a short window).
  • Fixed is best when markets swing and you need an exact arrival amount. Floating is best when you can fund quickly and want the best market-following rate.

3) Enter the payout address (and memo if needed)

  • Paste the destination address for the To asset. Double-check the format (0x for EVM, bc1/1/3 for BTC, memo/tag for XRP/XLM/ATOM, etc.).
  • If a memo/tag is required, fill it in. Missing memos can delay exchange credits on some chains.

4) Start the swap and review the quote

  • Click Exchange to generate the order.
  • You’ll see the expected amount, network fee, and (for fixed) the time window to fund the deposit.
  • If anything looks off, go back and adjust the pair, network, or rate type before sending funds.

5) Fund the deposit exactly as shown

  • Send the exact deposit amount to the provided address (and memo if present). Over/under-paying can stall or cancel the order.
  • Use a wallet that lets you set network fees so the transaction confirms within the fixed-rate window if you chose fixed.
  • Wait for your wallet to broadcast; do not cancel a sent transaction.

6) Track progress and keep the hashes

  • Keep the status page open; it will move through deposit detected → exchange in progress → payout sent.
  • Save the transaction hashes and the order ID—they’re the fastest way to troubleshoot if a network slows down.
