## FAQ

### How long does it take to swap APE to POL on GhostSwap?

Most APE to POL swaps are paid out within 10–25 minutes: the APE deposit needs about 2–5 minutes to confirm on Ethereum, then the POL is sent to your wallet, and Polygon PoS confirms the payout in about a minute. Busy networks can add a few minutes.

### How much is 1 APE in POL?

1 APE is worth about 1.5290 POL at the market rate, before fees (market prices, 2 Oct 2026). GhostSwap's quote in the exchange box already includes the service fee and the POL network fee. The rate floats with the market until your APE deposit confirms, so the exchange box shows the exact amount before you send.

### Do I need KYC or an account to exchange APE to POL?

No. GhostSwap has no accounts: you paste the Polygon PoS address that should receive the POL, send APE from your own wallet, and the POL goes straight to that address. No email, phone number or ID upload.

### What are the fees for converting ApeCoin to Polygon?

The GhostSwap fee is already included in the rate in the exchange box, so the POL amount you see is what you receive. On top of that, your wallet needs a little ETH to pay the Ethereum network fee for sending APE.

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

To receive Polygon from your swap, we recommend using MetaMask or Rabby. Make sure your wallet supports the Polygon PoS network before starting the exchange. Double-check your POL address before confirming — cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.

### What format is the POL address?

Use a Polygon PoS address: it starts with 0x followed by 40 hexadecimal characters. Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand.

### Can I track my APE to POL 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 APE payment on Etherscan (https://etherscan.io) and your incoming POL on PolygonScan (https://polygonscan.com).

### Is it safe to exchange APE for POL on GhostSwap?

GhostSwap is non-custodial: there is no account balance holding your coins. Your APE deposit is converted and the POL is sent straight to the Polygon PoS address you enter, so check that address twice — Polygon PoS transfers cannot be reversed.

### How does a cross-chain APE to POL swap work?

ApeCoin lives on Ethereum and Polygon on Polygon PoS, two separate blockchains. Instead of a bridge, GhostSwap takes your APE on Ethereum and pays native POL on Polygon PoS, so you never hold a wrapped token or pay bridge fees.

### What happens if my APE to POL exchange fails?

If a swap cannot be completed, the APE is refunded to the Ethereum 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.
