Three steps on Web3Swap
-
Enter the ETH size and paste the Polygon payout address for Polygon mainnet on this Web3Swap ticket.
-
Confirm Exchange to lock the live Web3Swap quote and reveal this ticket’s deposit details.
-
Broadcast exactly that ETH amount to the deposit. After Base mainnet confirms, MATIC is paid to your wallet.
Before you broadcast
- Base confirmations are usually fast — often within a minute.
- Send ETH on Base mainnet only — not Ethereum L1, Optimism, or Arbitrum unless your order says otherwise.
- Use a Base-compatible wallet and address (0x…). Leave enough ETH on Base for gas on top of the swap amount.
- If MATIC is late, refresh your wallet and re-check the ticket. When a payout hash is already listed, email or SimpleX support with your Exchange ID — Web3Swap has no login that lists expired orders.
Base ETH tickets — Coinbase L2 rail
Native ETH on Base is not Ethereum L1. Web3Swap Base tickets need a Base wallet — low fees, fast finality, still no hosted balance.
ETH on Base mainnet
Use a Base wallet for deposits. Ethereum mainnet ETH is a different network — wrong-chain sends may not be credited.
Leave enough ETH on Base for gas in addition to the amount you swap.
Polygon tickets — PoS rail, not Ethereum L1
MATIC/POL powers Polygon’s low-fee EVM environment. Web3Swap Polygon tickets reject Ethereum-mainnet assets — match the PoS badge before you broadcast.
MATIC not received?
Confirm your wallet is on Polygon PoS mainnet and fully synced.
MATIC payout tips
- Use a Polygon-compatible wallet and verify the receive address starts with 0x.
- Check Polygonscan with the payout tx hash if your balance has not updated.
- Do not expect MATIC on Ethereum — this route pays out on Polygon PoS.
Deposit checklist
Chain mismatches and bad addresses are the usual failure modes — skim these notes before you fund the deposit.

FAQ for this route
Do I need KYC or a Web3Swap login for ETH → MATIC?
No. A standard Ethereum (Base) → Polygon ticket on Web3Swap skips signup and ID upload. You stay self-custodial on both legs.
How soon does MATIC usually arrive?
After the Base mainnet deposit is final, many payouts leave within minutes. Congestion on Base mainnet or Polygon mainnet can stretch that — mempools and fees set the clock, not a compliance hold.
Does Web3Swap custody my ETH or MATIC?
No. You broadcast ETH from a wallet you control; MATIC pays only to the address you paste. Nothing sits as a named Web3Swap balance.
What if I send ETH on the wrong rail?
Match Base mainnet exactly as printed on the Web3Swap ticket badge. A wrong-chain deposit often cannot be credited automatically — verify before you broadcast.
