Swap tokens

Trade one token for another.

Swapping means giving one token to receive another. For example, you choose the token you have and the token you want.

Choose what to swap

1. Select the token you want to sell and the token you want to receive.

2. Choose whether to use tokens from your wallet or your Pulse private balance. Enter how many to swap. Leave enough to cover any fees.

3. Check how many tokens you are expected to get and where they will arrive.

Read the quote

The quote shows the swap Pulse can offer right now. Check the fees and minimum received: the smallest amount of tokens you agree to get.

Price impact means your own swap changes the price. A large swap can give you a worse price.

Prices can also move while your swap is being processed. Slippage tolerance sets how much less you are willing to receive than the quote. A higher setting lets the swap go through at a worse price. If the result would fall below your minimum, the swap is rejected.

Approve and follow the swap

1. Read the request in your wallet. Approve it only if the tokens and amounts are right.

2. Watch the progress in Pulse. Approving the request does not mean the swap has finished.

3. When the swap finishes, check the wallet or private balance you chose to receive the tokens.

If the page or connection closes

Check the existing request first

Your swap may still be running even if you close the page or lose your connection. Reconnect the same wallet and check the swap first. If Pulse offers Retry or Resume, use it on that request.
