Exchange in 3 steps
-
Choose how much MATIC to send and enter your Bitcoin address on Bitcoin mainnet.
-
Hit Exchange to open your order page with the live rate and deposit details.
-
Transfer MATIC to the address on your order — after confirmations, BTC is sent to your wallet automatically.
What do you need to know?
- Polygon confirmations are usually fast — often within a minute.
- Send MATIC on Polygon PoS mainnet only — not Ethereum or other L2s unless your order says otherwise.
- Use a Polygon-compatible wallet and address (0x…). Leave enough MATIC for gas.
- BTC not visible yet? Wait a few minutes, resync your wallet, then contact support with your order ID if the payout tx is already listed.
Polygon — low-cost EVM layer-2
MATIC (POL) powers Polygon — fast EVM transfers, low fees, and wide DeFi and bridge liquidity.
MATIC on Polygon mainnet
Use a Polygon PoS wallet for deposits. Do not send MATIC on Ethereum mainnet — wrapped versions are different assets.
Leave enough MATIC in your wallet to cover gas on top of the swap amount.
Bitcoin — the original digital asset
Since 2009, Bitcoin has been the benchmark cryptocurrency — deep liquidity, wide recognition, and the default on-ramp for cross-chain swaps.
When is my BTC spendable?
After your payout transaction receives the confirmations shown on the order page — typically one or more blocks depending on route.
Checking your BTC payout
- Open the order page and copy the payout transaction hash into a Bitcoin block explorer.
- Confirm the destination address matches your wallet exactly — including case and format.
- Most wallets show incoming BTC after one confirmation; some exchanges wait for more.

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