How long does an XMR to MATIC swap take?

Most swaps complete within roughly 10 to 60 minutes. The main variables are Monero's confirmation time and settlement on Polygon; network congestion on either side can extend the total swap time.

Do I need an account to swap XMR to MATIC?

No. Standard XMR to MATIC swaps use an account-free flow with minimal data collection. Verification may be required only in limited risk cases.

Is the XMR to MATIC swap non-custodial?

Funds are routed only to fulfil your order, and MATIC is delivered directly to the Polygon address you control. MoneroEx does not hold your balance beyond the duration of the swap.

Will my MATIC be private after the swap?

No. Once funds leave Monero, the MATIC transaction is recorded on the public Polygon ledger and is visible to anyone. Only the Monero side benefits from XMR's protocol-level privacy.

Is there a minimum amount for XMR to MATIC?

Yes. A minimum applies so the transaction can cover network fees on both the Monero and Polygon networks. The current minimum is shown in the swap interface when you select the XMR to MATIC pair.

Swap Monero to Polygon

Convert XMR to MATIC and receive Polygon in your own wallet. Account-free standard flow, non-custodial, verification may be required in limited risk cases.

How This Pair Works

A Monero to MATIC swap moves value off XMR into Polygon. After you deposit Monero and it reaches about 10 confirmations, MoneroEx sources MATIC liquidity and delivers it to your Polygon address, with no sign-up for standard swaps.

Why Swap Monero to Polygon?

Holding value in Polygon can be useful for Polygon access or wider merchant and exchange support. A Monero to MATIC swap gives you MATIC on-chain while keeping the standard flow non-custodial and account-free.

Privacy Notes

Your incoming Monero benefits from XMR's protocol-level privacy, but the outgoing MATIC is recorded on the public Polygon network and is visible to anyone analysing that chain. MoneroEx cannot control Polygon transparency. Only the data necessary to process the swap is collected, and verification may be required in limited risk cases.

Step-by-Step Process

1
Select XMR to MATIC and enter the amount
Choose Monero as the source currency and Polygon as the destination, then enter how much XMR you want to swap. The interface shows the estimated MATIC you will receive at the current rate.
2
Enter your Polygon destination address
Paste your MATIC wallet address into the destination field. A Polygon address is a 42-character Polygon address starting with 0x; verify the full string carefully, as transactions cannot be reversed once sent.
3
Send XMR to the deposit address
After you confirm the details, you receive a Monero deposit address. Send the exact XMR amount shown from your own wallet; sending a different amount may affect the rate or require review.
4
Receive MATIC in your wallet
Once your Monero deposit reaches about 10 confirmations, MoneroEx executes the swap and sends MATIC to your Polygon address. Track progress with your unique swap ID.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Pasting a MATIC address from the wrong network instead of a valid Polygon address
Checking only part of the Polygon address instead of verifying the full string
Copying the destination address from chat or email rather than directly from your Polygon wallet
Sending an amount different from the quoted XMR, which may change the rate or trigger manual review
Closing the status page before the swap confirms and losing track of the swap ID
