Swaps

Swaps on SNAP let you trade tokens quickly and securely. The system routes your order through available pools to give you the best execution within your chosen settings.

How swaps execute

• The router finds the most efficient path across pools.

• You set a slippage tolerance to protect against price movement.

• If the market shifts beyond your tolerance while pending, the transaction will revert—your funds remain safe.

Price impact

Large trades may shift the market price, especially in low-liquidity pools. If price impact looks high, consider splitting the trade into smaller orders.

Settings you control

• Slippage tolerance: Keep it low for stable pairs; raise slightly for volatile pairs.

• Allowance: Approve enough tokens for your intended trade size.

• Deadline: Set a reasonable expiry so transactions don’t get stuck.

Why swaps can fail

• Allowance is too low → Approve more tokens and retry.

• Slippage set too tight → Increase slightly or reduce trade size.

• Price impact too high → Split the trade or wait for more liquidity.

• Wrong network → Confirm your wallet is on TAC.
