Most ALGO to ARB swaps are paid out within 5–15 minutes: the ALGO deposit needs under a minute to confirm on Algorand, then the ARB is sent to your wallet, and Arbitrum One confirms the payout in about a minute. Busy networks can add a few minutes. ### How much is 1 ALGO in ARB? 1 ALGO is worth about 0.660508 ARB at the market rate, before fees (market prices, 12 Oct 2026). GhostSwap's quote in the exchange box already includes the service fee and the ARB network fee. The rate floats with the market until your ALGO deposit confirms, so the exchange box shows the exact amount before you send. ### Do I need KYC or an account to exchange ALGO to ARB? No. GhostSwap has no accounts: you paste the Arbitrum One address that should receive the ARB, send ALGO from your own wallet, and the ARB goes straight to that address. No email, phone number or ID upload. ### What are the fees for converting Algorand to Arbitrum? The GhostSwap fee is already included in the rate in the exchange box, so the ARB amount you see is what you receive. On top of that, the Algorand network fee for your deposit is paid in ALGO by your wallet. ### What wallet should I use to receive ARB? To receive Arbitrum from your swap, we recommend using MetaMask or Rabby. Make sure your wallet supports the Arbitrum One (Ethereum layer 2) network before starting the exchange. Double-check your ARB address before confirming, cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed. ### What format is the ARB address? Use an Arbitrum One address: it starts with 0x followed by 40 hexadecimal characters. Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand. Sending ARB to an address on another network can lose the coins. ### Can I track my ALGO to ARB 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 ALGO payment on Allo (https://allo.info) and your incoming ARB on Arbiscan (https://arbiscan.io). ### Is it safe to exchange ALGO for ARB on GhostSwap? GhostSwap is non-custodial: there is no account balance holding your coins. Your ALGO deposit is converted and the ARB is sent straight to the Arbitrum One address you enter, so check that address twice, Arbitrum One transfers cannot be reversed. ### How does a cross-chain ALGO to ARB swap work? Algorand lives on Algorand and Arbitrum on Arbitrum One, two separate blockchains. Instead of a bridge, GhostSwap takes your ALGO on Algorand and pays native ARB on Arbitrum One, so you never hold a wrapped token or pay bridge fees. ### What happens if my ALGO to ARB exchange fails? If a swap cannot be completed, the ALGO is refunded to the Algorand address you entered as the sender address. If something looks stuck, contact support with your swap ID from the status page. Most problems come from sending a different amount than shown or using an address on the wrong network. ## Related - [Reverse: ARB to ALGO](https://ghostswap.io/exchange/arb-algo/) ([Markdown](https://ghostswap.io/exchange/arb-algo.md)) - [All GhostSwap pairs](https://ghostswap.io/exchange/) - [How to exchange](https://ghostswap.io/how-to-exchange/) - [Site guide for AI assistants](https://ghostswap.io/llms.txt)
