Exchange in 3 steps
-
Choose how much OP to send and enter your Stellar address on Stellar mainnet.
-
Hit Exchange to open your order page with the live rate and deposit details.
-
Transfer OP to the address on your order — after confirmations, XLM is sent to your wallet automatically.
What do you need to know?
- Optimism confirmations are usually fast — often within a minute.
- Send OP on Optimism mainnet only — not Ethereum, Base, or Arbitrum unless your order says otherwise.
- Use an Optimism-compatible wallet and address (0x…). Leave enough ETH on Optimism for gas if sending ERC-20 tokens.
- 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.
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 on Optimism mainnet
Use an Optimism wallet for deposits. L1 Ethereum or other L2 sends may not be credited.
Leave enough ETH on Optimism for gas when moving OP or other tokens.
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.

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