Things to know
- Gas on Tron only. Sending TRC-20 USDT costs TRX for energy and bandwidth. Any network fee on the destination chain is deducted from the amount shown, so you do not need gas there.
- Refunds. On-chain routes revert (gas is not refundable). Deposit-address routes return your deposit to the refund address; provider and network fees may be deducted.
- No partial fills. A swap completes in full or does not execute.
- Minimum amount. Some routes have a minimum swap amount that varies by pair. If your amount is below it, the route is listed as unavailable with the minimum shown.
- Compliance checks. No account or KYC is needed for regular use, though a provider may request extra checks for a specific transaction. If a provider flags a swap as high risk under AML or sanctions rules, it decides whether to complete, refund or hold it, and a refund is not guaranteed.
