Three steps on Web3Swap
-
Enter the MATIC size and paste the Cardano payout address for Cardano mainnet on this Web3Swap ticket.
-
Confirm Exchange to lock the live Web3Swap quote and reveal this ticket’s deposit details.
-
Broadcast exactly that MATIC amount to the deposit. After Polygon mainnet confirms, ADA is paid to your wallet.
Before you broadcast
- 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.
- If ADA 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.
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 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.
Cardano tickets — ADA address format
ADA is Cardano’s native proof-of-stake asset. On Web3Swap, paste a mainnet address your wallet owns and broadcast only ADA — wrong-network sends will not credit the ticket.
ADA payout delays
Resync your Cardano wallet if the order shows a sent transaction but balance is unchanged.
When will ADA arrive?
Cardano block times are around 20 seconds — payouts typically follow within several blocks.
- Use a Shelley-era Cardano address compatible with your wallet.
- Check a Cardano explorer with the payout tx hash from your order page.
- Allow a few extra minutes if your wallet is still syncing the latest epoch.
Deposit checklist
Chain mismatches and bad addresses are the usual failure modes — skim these notes before you fund the deposit.

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