Tunnel in 3 steps
-
Choose how much XRP to send and paste the Avalanche address that should receive funds on Avalanche C-Chain.
-
Open the order to freeze the quote and reveal a one-time deposit destination.
-
Broadcast XRP to that destination. Once confirmations clear, AVAX is pushed to your payout wallet.
Before you broadcast
- XRP Ledger confirmations are typically very fast — often seconds.
- If your receiving account requires a destination tag, enter it exactly on the order form.
- Leave enough XRP reserve if your wallet requires a minimum balance to activate the account.
- Still waiting on AVAX? Give the wallet a few minutes to sync, then share your Exchange ID with support if the order already lists a payout hash.
XRP — fast ledger settlements
XRP moves quickly on the XRP Ledger — designed for rapid settlement with minimal transaction fees.
Destination tags on XRP
Exchanges and custodial wallets often require a destination tag — missing tags delay or complicate crediting.
Self-custody addresses may not need a tag; check what your wallet provider expects.
Avalanche — fast smart-contract L1
AVAX is the native token of Avalanche C-Chain — quick finality, EVM compatibility, and deep cross-chain liquidity.
AVAX not received?
Confirm your wallet is set to Avalanche C-Chain and fully synced.
AVAX payout tips
- Payouts go to Avalanche C-Chain — use a 0x-style address compatible with your wallet.
- Check Snowtrace or a similar explorer with the payout tx hash from your order page.
- Allow a minute for your wallet to refresh after the explorer shows the transfer.

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