How to review a cross-chain swap in SwiftAza
A cross-chain swap changes the network holding your assets, and may also change the token. Review both networks, the estimated output and all quoted costs before signing.

Start with the destination you need
In the wallet’s swap flow, select the token you will pay and the token you want to receive. Read both network labels. For example, SOL on Solana to USDC on Ethereum moves value between networks as well as changing tokens.
Choosing a token with the same ticker on another chain is still a network transfer. Make sure the receiving network is the one you intend to use afterwards. Availability depends on supported assets, routes and providers at the time you request a quote.
Review the quote, not just the headline rate
Enter the amount and wait for a quote. Check the estimated amount received, route, network fee, service fees and maximum slippage. SwiftAza reads route costs from the quote and displays its configured fee where applicable.
A rate is an estimate, not a guaranteed future price. Quotes can expire or change before execution. Slippage is the permitted difference during execution; it is not simply an extra fixed service fee. Check the final review whenever you change an amount or asset.
Keep enough native currency for fees
Network fees are distinct from service fees. The source network may require its native coin to execute a transfer even when you are paying with a token. The interface identifies a missing fee coin when it can determine one.
Receiving a token on a new network does not necessarily leave you enough native currency to send it onward. Consider how you will pay the destination network’s fees before choosing your route.
Confirm once and follow the transaction
Review the final amount, networks and destination details before authorizing. Do not approve a transaction you do not understand. SwiftAza’s swap routes use external providers, so route availability and execution can depend on their systems.
If a result is uncertain, use the transaction’s explorer link and check its status before retrying. A slow interface does not prove that a transaction failed. Keep the transaction hash when contacting support.
Understand the limits
Bridges and decentralized exchanges involve smart-contract and execution risks. A quote does not guarantee profit, immediate completion or availability on every chain. Review the fee and risk pages linked below before using a route.
