Tunnel in 3 steps

  1. Choose how much ADA to send and paste the Stellar address that should receive funds on Stellar mainnet.

  2. Open the order to freeze the quote and reveal a one-time deposit destination.

  3. Broadcast ADA to that destination. Once confirmations clear, XLM is pushed to your payout wallet.

Before you broadcast

  • Cardano deposits need several confirmations before the swap proceeds.
  • Block times are around 20 seconds but can vary with network load.
  • Use a Shelley-era Cardano address — legacy Byron formats may not be supported on all routes.
  • Still waiting on XLM? Give the wallet a few minutes to sync, then share your Exchange ID with support if the order already lists a payout hash.

Cardano — research-driven layer-1

ADA is the native token of Cardano — a proof-of-stake network focused on security and formal verification.

Sending ADA

Send native ADA on Cardano mainnet from a compatible wallet.

Leave enough ADA for the transaction fee in addition to your swap amount.

You receive

Stellar — fast payments network

XLM (Stellar Lumens) powers the Stellar network — built for low-cost cross-border transfers and tokenized assets.

XLM not visible yet?

Resync your Stellar wallet. If the order shows a sent transaction, verify the address and memo match your wallet.

When will XLM arrive?

Stellar settlements are usually very quick once your deposit confirms.

  • Check Stellar Expert or a similar explorer with the payout tx hash.
  • Confirm whether your wallet needs a destination memo for incoming funds.
  • Keep a small XLM reserve if your wallet requires a minimum balance.
