How to swap tokens on Web3 Wallet?

1. Log in to your Binance app and tap [Wallets] - [Web3]. Go to [Swap].

2. On the [Swap] tab, choose the tokens and the network for the swap. Web3 Wallet supports cross-chain swap on multiple networks. For example, swapping BNB on BNB Smart Chain to USDT on Ethereum.

Alternatively, you can swap tokens using the [Bridge] function too.

Enter the swap amount and you'll see the swap rate and a recommended provider, which offers a better price among the supported liquidity providers.

3. Review the rate, provider, slippage, network fee, and TX fee. You’ll also see the estimated swap duration before confirming the swap. Tap [Swap] or [Cross-Chain Swap] to proceed.

4. Sometimes you’ll see the below notice if there’s an error with the conversion mechanism or the liquidity is low. Please wait for the system to refresh, it will suggest another provider shortly.

5. Check the swap details and tap [Confirm] within the specified time, or your quote will expire. You may tap [Refresh] to get a new quote.

6. Verify with your passkey or 2FA device to complete the swap.

What is slippage and how to adjust the slippage tolerance?

Slippage is the difference between a trade's expected or requested price and the price at which the trade is effectively executed. It typically occurs in markets experiencing high volatility or low liquidity.

In a swap, a higher slippage tolerance is more likely for the trade to succeed, but it might lower the minimum amount you can receive. You can adjust a swap’s slippage tolerance by tapping the edit icon next to [Minimum Received]. Enter the slippage tolerance and tap [Save].

Why do I need to approve permission before a swap?

Before swapping a token, you might be asked to grant the third-party app or smart contract permission to access your funds in the Web3 Wallet.

To approve permission, tap [Approve] after entering the swap details. Please note that approving permission requires a network fee. You’ll see the fee amount on the approval page.
