    Exchange in 3 steps

    1. Choose how much ADA to send and enter your Stellar address on Stellar mainnet.

    2. Hit Exchange to open your order page with the live rate and deposit details.

    3. Transfer ADA to the address on your order — after confirmations, XLM is sent to your wallet automatically.

    What do you need to know?

    • Cardano deposits need several confirmations before the swap proceeds.
    • Block times are around 20 seconds but can vary with network load.
    • Use a Shelley-era Cardano address — legacy Byron formats may not be supported on all routes.
    • XLM not visible yet? Wait a few minutes, resync your wallet, then contact support with your order ID if the payout tx is already listed.

    Stellar — fast payments network

    XLM (Stellar Lumens) powers the Stellar network — built for low-cost cross-border transfers and tokenized assets.

    XLM not visible yet?

    Resync your Stellar wallet. If the order shows a sent transaction, verify the address and memo match your wallet.

    When will XLM arrive?

    Stellar settlements are usually very quick once your deposit confirms.

    • Check Stellar Expert or a similar explorer with the payout tx hash.
    • Confirm whether your wallet needs a destination memo for incoming funds.
    • Keep a small XLM reserve if your wallet requires a minimum balance.
