## FAQ

### How long does it take to swap ZEC to FLOW on GhostSwap?

Most ZEC to FLOW swaps finish in 20–60 minutes. Your ZEC deposit needs about 10–20 minutes to confirm on Zcash; after that the FLOW is sent to your wallet and Flow confirms it in under a minute. Busy networks can add a few minutes.

### How much FLOW do I get for 2.5 ZEC?

At 1 Oct 2026, 21:22 UTC, 2.5 ZEC swapped to about 105,197.15 FLOW on GhostSwap, after the service fee and the FLOW network fee. The rate floats with the market, so the exchange box shows the exact live amount before you send.

### Do I need KYC or an account to exchange ZEC to FLOW?

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

### What are the fees for converting Zcash to Flow?

The GhostSwap fee is already included in the rate in the exchange box, so the FLOW amount you see is what you receive. On top of that, the Zcash network fee for your deposit is paid in ZEC by your wallet.

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

To receive Flow from your swap, we recommend using Flow Wallet. Make sure your wallet supports the Flow network before starting the exchange. Double-check your FLOW address before confirming — cryptocurrency transactions cannot be reversed.

### What format is the FLOW address?

Use a Flow address: it starts with 0x followed by 16 hexadecimal characters. Copy it from your wallet and paste it; never type it by hand.

### Can I track my ZEC to FLOW 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 ZEC payment on Zcash Block Explorer (https://zcashblockexplorer.com) and your incoming FLOW on Flowscan (https://www.flowscan.io).

### Is it safe to exchange ZEC for FLOW on GhostSwap?

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

### Will my FLOW be linked to my ZEC?

Since Zcash is optional — supports both transparent (public) and shielded (fully private) transactions via zk-SNARKs, the source of your funds is already protected. The FLOW you receive will appear as a fresh transaction on the Flow blockchain with no visible connection to your ZEC holdings. GhostSwap requires no KYC, so there's no account linking the two.

### How does a cross-chain ZEC to FLOW swap work?

Zcash lives on Zcash and Flow on Flow, two separate blockchains. Instead of a bridge, GhostSwap takes your ZEC on Zcash and pays native FLOW on Flow, so you never hold a wrapped token or pay bridge fees.

### What happens if my ZEC to FLOW exchange fails?

If a swap cannot be completed, the ZEC is refunded to the Zcash 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.
