The routes
Fixed-output routes deliver the exact amount shown, so slippage does not apply. Variable routes use your slippage tolerance (0.05% by default) to set the minimum received.
Examples from live quotes
Test quotes on October 19, 2026 (about 16:55 UTC). Routes are listed in the order the app showed them. The live quote shows current numbers.- USDT: Tron to Ethereum
- USDC: Arbitrum to Base
1,000 USDT from Tron to Ethereum returned three routes.
USDT0 showed the most USDT received, but the app listed L2Pass RFQ first. The USDT0 route needs more Tron energy than a plain USDT transfer, about 22.60 USD in the test quote if paid in TRX, plus the message fee. If you already have enough staked energy, USDT0 can cost you less. The Ethereum network fee is already included in each amount (0.3 USDT on L2Pass RFQ).
Which routes appear for which pairs
In the same test quotes:- USDT between Tron and Ethereum: L2Pass RFQ, the USDT0 bridge and L2Pass Private.
- USDC between EVM chains (Arbitrum, Base, Ethereum): eight routes, including both CCTP modes.
- Bitcoin to or from USDT: L2Pass RFQ and L2Pass Private only.
- ETH on Ethereum to USDC on Arbitrum: L2Pass RFQ, Relay, LI.FI and L2Pass Private.
How the order is decided
Routes are sorted by the estimated net value you receive after gas. That is why a route with the highest amount received is not always first. In a test quote for 1,000 USDT from Ethereum to Tron, USDT0 showed 999.7 USDT, the most of any route, but it needs a LayerZero message fee of about 0.005 ETH (about 11.92 USD), paid in ETH. L2Pass RFQ showed 998.21 USDT with no separate fee to pay, so it was listed first.Things to know
- The L2Pass fee does not depend on the route for stablecoins. It is 0% on stablecoin swaps on any route, up to 0.2% on other assets and up to 0.3% on private swaps. See L2Pass Swap fees explained.
- Deposit or wallet. Only L2Pass RFQ and L2Pass Private use a deposit address, so they are the routes you can pay from an exchange. Other routes need a transaction signed in your wallet.
- Refunds. On-chain routes revert if they fail (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 amounts. Some routes have a minimum swap amount. If your amount is below it, the route is listed as unavailable with the minimum shown.
FAQ
Which route should I choose?
Which route should I choose?
Compare the amount you receive, the estimated time and whether you can sign a wallet transaction or need to pay from an exchange. The route card shows all three before you confirm.
What is the difference between Circle CCTP and USDT0?
What is the difference between Circle CCTP and USDT0?
Circle CCTP moves native USDC issued by Circle between chains. USDT0 is the omnichain version of USDT, moved over LayerZero, and in L2Pass Swap it also covers transfers from Tron. Both are fixed-output routes paid by wallet transaction.
Why is the fastest route not first?
Why is the fastest route not first?
The list is sorted by net value after gas, not by speed. Check the estimated time on each route card.
Does L2Pass execute the swap itself?
Does L2Pass execute the swap itself?
No. L2Pass is a non-custodial interface. The selected provider executes the swap, and L2Pass never holds your tokens or private keys.
