Tunnel in 3 steps
-
Choose how much MATIC to send and paste the Arbitrum address that should receive funds on Arbitrum One.
-
Open the order to freeze the quote and reveal a one-time deposit destination.
-
Broadcast MATIC to that destination. Once confirmations clear, ARB is pushed to your payout wallet.
Before you broadcast
- Polygon confirmations are usually fast — often within a minute.
- Send MATIC on Polygon PoS mainnet only — not Ethereum or other L2s unless your order says otherwise.
- Use a Polygon-compatible wallet and address (0x…). Leave enough MATIC for gas.
- Still waiting on ARB? Give the wallet a few minutes to sync, then share your Exchange ID with support if the order already lists a payout hash.
Polygon — low-cost EVM layer-2
MATIC (POL) powers Polygon — fast EVM transfers, low fees, and wide DeFi and bridge liquidity.
MATIC on Polygon mainnet
Use a Polygon PoS wallet for deposits. Do not send MATIC on Ethereum mainnet — wrapped versions are different assets.
Leave enough MATIC in your wallet to cover gas on top of the swap amount.
Arbitrum — leading Ethereum rollup
ARB is the governance token of Arbitrum One — an optimistic rollup with EVM compatibility and wide DeFi adoption.
ARB not received?
Confirm your wallet is on Arbitrum One and fully synced.
ARB payout tips
- Payouts go to Arbitrum One — use a 0x-style address on the correct chain.
- Check Arbiscan with the payout tx hash if your balance has not updated.
- Do not expect ARB on Ethereum mainnet unless your order explicitly lists it.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need KYC to swap MATIC for ARB on TunnelSwap?
No. TunnelSwap is an anonymous no-KYC, privacy-first exchange. There is no account, no ID upload, and no standing balance for Polygon → Arbitrum swaps.
How fast is a MATIC → ARB swap?
Most routes settle within minutes. Final timing follows Polygon mainnet deposit confirmations and Arbitrum One payout speed.
Does TunnelSwap hold my MATIC or ARB?
No. You fund the deposit from your wallet and ARB is sent straight to the address you paste — non-custodial, wallet to wallet.
What if I use the wrong network for MATIC?
Only send on the network shown for the order (Polygon mainnet). Wrong-chain deposits can be unrecoverable — review the safety guides before you broadcast.
