Exchange in 3 steps
-
Choose how much XMR 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 XMR to the address on your order — after confirmations, OP is sent to your wallet automatically.
What do you need to know?
- Monero requires confirmations before funds are considered final — wallet sync matters.
- Allow time for your Monero wallet to scan new blocks after receipt.
- Use a fresh subaddress for each swap. Avoid reusing old XMR receive addresses.
- 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.
Monero — private by default
Monero uses ring signatures and one-time addresses so amounts and addresses stay confidential on-chain.
Monero wallet sync
An out-of-sync wallet may not display incoming funds even after the order shows a payout.
Compare your wallet block height with a public Monero explorer before opening a support ticket.
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 XMR to OP?
No. SendSwap is a non-custodial instant exchange — no account, no ID checks, and no KYC for Monero to Optimism swaps.
How long does XMR to OP take?
Most swaps finish in 1–5 minutes. Timing depends on Monero mainnet and Optimism mainnet confirmations and current network load.
Is XMR to OP non-custodial?
Yes. You send XMR from your wallet and receive OP directly to the address you provide — SendSwap never holds your keys.
What if I send XMR on the wrong network?
Always match the network on your order page (Monero mainnet for deposits). Wrong-network sends may not be credited — read our swap safety guides before you send.
