Tunnel in 3 steps
-
Choose how much TON to send and paste the Monero address that should receive funds on Monero mainnet.
-
Open the order to freeze the quote and reveal a one-time deposit destination.
-
Broadcast TON to that destination. Once confirmations clear, XMR is pushed to your payout wallet.
Before you broadcast
- TON confirmations are typically very fast — often under a minute.
- Use a TON mainnet wallet address (UQ… or EQ… format). Do not send jettons unless your order specifies a token.
- Send native TON on The Open Network only — not wrapped TON on other chains.
- Still waiting on XMR? Give the wallet a few minutes to sync, then share your Exchange ID with support if the order already lists a payout hash.
Toncoin — Telegram-native layer-1
TON powers The Open Network — fast transfers, low fees, and deep integration with Telegram wallets and mini-apps.
Sending TON on mainnet
Send native TON from a TON-compatible wallet. Jetton deposits require the exact asset your order lists.
Leave enough TON in your wallet to cover network fees on top of the swap amount.
Monero — private by default
Monero uses ring signatures and one-time addresses so amounts and addresses stay confidential on-chain.
XMR not visible yet?
Wait for wallet sync to complete — Monero often needs several minutes to reflect incoming outputs.
If the order lists a payout tx but your synced wallet shows nothing, contact support.
Receiving XMR privately
Monero payouts use one-time addresses — your wallet must finish scanning recent blocks to display the balance.
- Use a fresh subaddress for each swap rather than reusing old receive addresses.
- Compare your wallet block height with a public explorer before assuming a payout failed.
- Allow extra time after the order shows sent — privacy features can delay wallet display.

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