How to swap

Step 1: Access the Saros Swap via https://saros.xyz/swap

Step 2: Click on Connect Wallet at the top right corner and choose your wallet provider then proceed to connect.

For example, we will choose Coin98 wallet and connect.

Step 3: Select the token you want to trade from the list and enter the amount you want to swap

This example will show the USDC/SAROS pair.

Step 4: Check the amount of token you will receive and the transaction parameter details carefully to ensure it meets your expectations

[1] Slippage: you can access the Settings on the top right corner to adjust the slippage and turn on/off safe mode.

[2] Price impact and other parameters that may affect your transaction.

Note:

  • Swaps with a price impact greater than 5% are restricted while Safe Mode is enabled. To proceed, please disable Safe Mode in the Settings. Disabling Safe Mode allows high-impact trades, which may result in losses — proceed at your own risk.

  • A higher slippage tolerance means you're willing to accept greater price deviation to ensure the transaction goes through, especially during market volatility or when liquidity is low.

  • Saros integrates with the OKX DEX Aggregator, which supports routing through both Saros AMM and Saros DLMM pools to optimize pricing and minimize slippage.

Note: Make sure you have enough SOL left for the gas fee

Step 5: Click the Swap button and confirm the verification signature request.

Note: Make sure to review the information and ensure you trust the website before confirming.

Once confirmed, the transaction will be executed on the blockchain and when it completes, your tokens will appear in your wallet. You can view the transaction details on the blockchain explorer Solscan.
