5. Receive CRO in your wallet and follow the status page with your swap ID.

## XRP to CRO: a Destination Tag on one side, a Payment ID on the other

XRP to CRO swaps XRP from the XRP Ledger into native CRO on Cronos POS, the Cosmos SDK chain in the Crypto.com ecosystem where CRO is delegated to validators. Both chains use a short extra identifier for shared exchange addresses: XRP has the Destination Tag, and CRO has a memo, which GhostSwap calls the Payment ID. No account is needed.

The XRP deposit settles within seconds and Cronos POS adds a block every few seconds, so most swaps finish in 5 to 15 minutes. CRO also exists on the Cronos EVM chain and as an Ethereum token, both with 0x addresses. This pair pays only to cro1 addresses on Cronos POS.

### Tips

- If the deposit screen shows a Destination Tag with the XRP address, include it in your XRP payment exactly as shown, or the deposit may not be matched to your swap.
- Paste a cro1 address from Keplr set to Cronos POS, or from a Ledger. Fill the Payment ID only when that cro1 address belongs to an exchange account that asks for one.
- Send from your own Xaman or Ledger wallet and enter that r address as the refund address. Part of every XRP balance is held as a reserve and cannot be sent.

### Can I swap XRP to CRO without KYC?

Yes. A standard swap needs no account, email or ID. Paste your cro1 address, add a Payment ID only for an exchange, check the floating rate and send the XRP.

### Which tag goes where?

The XRP Destination Tag, if GhostSwap shows one, goes into your XRP wallet when you send the deposit. The CRO Payment ID goes into the exchange box next to your cro1 address, and only if the receiving exchange requires it. Do not mix them up.

## FAQ

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

When you exchange XRP to Cronos on GhostSwap, the process typically takes 3–5 seconds for your XRP to confirm on the XRP Ledger network. Once confirmed, your Cronos is sent to your wallet and arrives within a few minutes on Cronos. Most XRP to CRO swaps are paid out within 5–15 minutes after you send; network congestion can occasionally add time, and the status page shows each step.

### What are the fees for converting XRP to Cronos?

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, XRP transaction fees are negligible, typically a fraction of a cent. The swap box shows the estimated amount of CRO 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 CRO?

To receive Cronos from your swap, we recommend using Crypto.com DeFi Wallet or Trust Wallet. Make sure your wallet supports the Cronos network before starting the exchange. Double-check your CRO address before confirming, cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.

### Can I track my XRP to CRO 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 XRP payment on XRPSCAN (https://xrpscan.com) and your incoming CRO on the Cronos explorer.

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

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

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

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

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

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