Most POL to ADA swaps are paid out within 5–15 minutes: the POL deposit needs about a minute to confirm on Polygon PoS, then the ADA is sent to your wallet, and Cardano confirms the payout in a few minutes (blocks about every 20 seconds). Busy networks can add a few minutes. ### How much is 1 POL in ADA? 1 POL is worth about 0.410897 ADA 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 ADA network fee. The rate floats with the market until your POL deposit confirms, so the exchange box shows the exact amount before you send. ### Do I need KYC or an account to exchange POL to ADA? No. GhostSwap has no accounts: you paste the Cardano address that should receive the ADA, send POL from your own wallet, and the ADA goes straight to that address. No email, phone number or ID upload. ### What are the fees for converting Polygon to Cardano? The GhostSwap fee is already included in the rate in the exchange box, so the ADA amount you see is what you receive. On top of that, the Polygon PoS network fee for your deposit is paid in POL by your wallet. ### What wallet should I use to receive ADA? To receive Cardano from your swap, we recommend using Eternl, Lace or VESPR. Make sure your wallet supports the Cardano network before starting the exchange. Double-check your ADA address before confirming, cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed. ### What format is the ADA address? Use a Cardano address: it starts with addr1. Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand. ### Can I track my POL to ADA 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 POL payment on PolygonScan (https://polygonscan.com) and your incoming ADA on Cardanoscan (https://cardanoscan.io). ### Is it safe to exchange POL for ADA on GhostSwap? GhostSwap is non-custodial: there is no account balance holding your coins. Your POL deposit is converted and the ADA is sent straight to the Cardano address you enter, so check that address twice, Cardano transfers cannot be reversed. ### How does a cross-chain POL to ADA swap work? Polygon lives on Polygon PoS and Cardano on Cardano, two separate blockchains. Instead of a bridge, GhostSwap takes your POL on Polygon PoS and pays native ADA on Cardano, so you never hold a wrapped token or pay bridge fees. ### What happens if my POL to ADA exchange fails? If a swap cannot be completed, the POL is refunded to the Polygon PoS 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: ADA to POL](https://ghostswap.io/exchange/ada-pol/) ([Markdown](https://ghostswap.io/exchange/ada-pol.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)
