Most ALGO to ICP swaps are paid out within 5–15 minutes: the ALGO deposit needs under a minute to confirm on Algorand, then the ICP is sent to your wallet, and Internet Computer confirms the payout in a few seconds. Busy networks can add a few minutes. ### How much is 1 ALGO in ICP? 1 ALGO is worth about 0.038518 ICP at the market rate, before fees (market prices, 3 Oct 2026). GhostSwap's quote in the exchange box already includes the service fee and the ICP 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 ICP? No. GhostSwap has no accounts: you paste the Internet Computer address that should receive the ICP, send ALGO from your own wallet, and the ICP goes straight to that address. No email, phone number or ID upload. ### What are the fees for converting Algorand to Internet Computer? The GhostSwap fee is already included in the rate in the exchange box, so the ICP 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 ICP? To receive Internet Computer from your swap, we recommend using NNS dapp, Plug or OISY. Make sure your wallet supports the Internet Computer network before starting the exchange. Double-check your ICP address before confirming — cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed. ### What format is the ICP address? Use an Internet Computer address: it is a 64-character account ID. Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand. ### Can I track my ALGO to ICP 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 ICP on the ICP Dashboard (https://dashboard.internetcomputer.org). ### Is it safe to exchange ALGO for ICP on GhostSwap? GhostSwap is non-custodial: there is no account balance holding your coins. Your ALGO deposit is converted and the ICP is sent straight to the Internet Computer address you enter, so check that address twice — Internet Computer transfers cannot be reversed. ### How does a cross-chain ALGO to ICP swap work? Algorand lives on Algorand and Internet Computer on Internet Computer, two separate blockchains. Instead of a bridge, GhostSwap takes your ALGO on Algorand and pays native ICP on Internet Computer, so you never hold a wrapped token or pay bridge fees. ### What happens if my ALGO to ICP 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: ICP to ALGO](https://ghostswap.io/exchange/icp-algo/) ([Markdown](https://ghostswap.io/exchange/icp-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)
