## FAQ

### How long does it take to swap CRO to SAND on GhostSwap?

It depends on how quickly your CRO deposit confirms on its network; after that the SAND is sent to your wallet. The status page shows each step with your swap ID.

### Do I need KYC or an account to exchange CRO to SAND?

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

### What are the fees for converting Cronos to The Sandbox?

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, Cronos fees are small and paid in CRO. The swap box shows the estimated amount of SAND 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 SAND?

To receive The Sandbox from your swap, we recommend using MetaMask, Rabby or a Ledger. Make sure your wallet supports the Ethereum (ERC-20) network before starting the exchange. Double-check your SAND address before confirming, cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.

### Can I track my CRO to SAND 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 CRO payment on the Cronos explorer and your incoming SAND on Etherscan (https://etherscan.io).

### Is it safe to exchange CRO for SAND on GhostSwap?

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

### How does a cross-chain CRO to SAND swap work?

Cronos runs on the Cronos network while The Sandbox runs on the Ethereum (ERC-20) network, they can't be sent directly to each other. GhostSwap handles the cross-chain conversion for you: you send CRO to our temporary deposit address, we convert it, and send the equivalent SAND to your wallet. No bridge protocols or technical knowledge required.

### What happens if my CRO to SAND exchange fails?

In the rare case of a failed exchange, your CRO 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.
