Exchange in 3 steps
-
Choose how much ARB to send and enter your Optimism address on Optimism mainnet.
-
Hit Exchange to open your order page with the live rate and deposit details.
-
Transfer ARB to the address on your order — after confirmations, OP is sent to your wallet automatically.
What do you need to know?
- Arbitrum confirmations are usually fast — often within a minute.
- Send ARB on Arbitrum One only — not Ethereum, Optimism, or Base unless your order says otherwise.
- Use an Arbitrum-compatible wallet and address (0x…). Leave enough ETH on Arbitrum for gas if needed.
- OP not visible yet? Wait a few minutes, resync your wallet, then contact support with your order ID if the payout tx is already listed.
Arbitrum — leading Ethereum rollup
ARB is the governance token of Arbitrum One — an optimistic rollup with EVM compatibility and wide DeFi adoption.
ARB on Arbitrum One
Use an Arbitrum One wallet for deposits. Other chains use different assets even with the same ticker.
Leave enough ETH on Arbitrum for gas on top of the swap amount when required.
Optimism — Ethereum L2 with low fees
OP is the governance token of Optimism — an Ethereum rollup with fast, low-cost transfers and deep Superchain liquidity.
OP not received?
Confirm your wallet is on Optimism mainnet and fully synced.
OP payout tips
- Payouts go to Optimism — verify your wallet RPC is set to Optimism, not Ethereum mainnet.
- Check Optimistic Etherscan with the payout tx hash from your order page.
- Allow a minute for your wallet to refresh after the explorer shows the transfer.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need KYC to swap ARB to OP?
No. SendSwap is a non-custodial instant exchange — no account, no ID checks, and no KYC for Arbitrum to Optimism swaps.
How long does ARB to OP take?
Most swaps finish in 1–5 minutes. Timing depends on Arbitrum One and Optimism mainnet confirmations and current network load.
Is ARB to OP non-custodial?
Yes. You send ARB from your wallet and receive OP directly to the address you provide — SendSwap never holds your keys.
What if I send ARB on the wrong network?
Always match the network on your order page (Arbitrum One for deposits). Wrong-network sends may not be credited — read our swap safety guides before you send.
