## FAQ

### How long does it take to swap ADA to IOTA on GhostSwap?

When you exchange Cardano to IOTA on GhostSwap, the process typically takes 1–5 minutes for your ADA to confirm on the Cardano network. Once confirmed, your IOTA is sent to your wallet and arrives within 5–30 minutes depending on network congestion. Most ADA to IOTA swaps finish in 10–25 minutes in total; network congestion can occasionally add time, and the status page shows each step.

### Do I need KYC or an account to exchange ADA to IOTA?

No. GhostSwap is a non-custodial, no-KYC exchange. You can convert Cardano to IOTA without creating an account, uploading ID documents, or providing any personal information. Just enter your IOTA wallet address, send your ADA, and receive your IOTA — that's it.

### What are the fees for converting Cardano to IOTA?

GhostSwap charges a small service fee that's already included in the exchange rate you see — there are no hidden fees. On top of that, Cardano fees are fixed and predictable. The swap box shows the estimated amount of IOTA after fees before you send. The rate floats, so the final amount can differ slightly if the market moves before your deposit confirms.

### What wallet should I use to receive IOTA?

To receive IOTA from your swap, we recommend using Trust Wallet, Exodus, or any wallet that supports IOTA. Make sure your wallet supports the IOTA network before starting the exchange. Double-check your IOTA address before confirming — cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.

### Can I track my ADA to IOTA swap?

Yes. After initiating your swap, GhostSwap provides a transaction status page where you can monitor progress in real-time. You can also track your ADA payment on CardanoScan (https://cardanoscan.io) and your incoming IOTA on the relevant blockchain explorer.

### Is it safe to exchange ADA for IOTA on GhostSwap?

Yes. GhostSwap is a non-custodial exchange, which means we never hold your funds or private keys. Your Cardano is converted and sent directly to your IOTA wallet address. Standard swaps need no account, email or ID, and all swaps run over encrypted connections.

### How does a cross-chain ADA to IOTA swap work?

Cardano runs on the Cardano network while IOTA runs on the IOTA network — they can't be sent directly to each other. GhostSwap handles the cross-chain conversion for you: you send ADA to our temporary deposit address, we convert it, and send the equivalent IOTA to your wallet. No bridge protocols or technical knowledge required.

### What happens if my ADA to IOTA exchange fails?

In the rare case of a failed exchange, your ADA is refunded to the address you entered as the sender address. If something looks stuck, contact support with your swap ID from the status page. Most problems are caused by sending a different amount than shown or using an address on the wrong network.
