Tunnel in 3 steps
-
Choose how much ZEC to send and paste the Tron address that should receive funds on Tron mainnet.
-
Open the order to freeze the quote and reveal a one-time deposit destination.
-
Broadcast ZEC to that destination. Once confirmations clear, TRX is pushed to your payout wallet.
Before you broadcast
- Zcash confirmations follow mainnet block times — usually a few minutes.
- Transparent (t-) and shielded (z-) addresses are not interchangeable — use the type your order specifies.
- Shielded payouts may take longer to appear depending on wallet support.
- Still waiting on TRX? Give the wallet a few minutes to sync, then share your Exchange ID with support if the order already lists a payout hash.
Zcash — optional shielded privacy
ZEC supports transparent and shielded addresses — pick the receive format your wallet actually supports.
Transparent vs shielded ZEC
Sending to the wrong address type is a common failure mode.
If unsure, ask support which format your order uses before broadcasting.
Tron — fast, low-cost transfers
TRX is the native token of Tron — quick settlements, low fees, and the chain behind most TRC-20 USDT volume.
TRX payout not showing?
Refresh your Tron wallet. Verify the receive address starts with T and matches your order exactly.
How fast is the TRX payout?
Tron confirmations are typically very fast — most TRX payouts arrive within minutes.
- Check the order page for a payout transaction hash on Tronscan or a similar explorer.
- Confirm your wallet is on Tron mainnet, not an EVM or other wrapped TRX network.
- Keep a small TRX balance for bandwidth if you plan to move TRC-20 tokens afterward.

Does TunnelSwap hold my ZEC or TRX?
No. You fund the deposit from your wallet and TRX is sent straight to the address you paste — non-custodial, wallet to wallet.
What if I use the wrong network for ZEC?
Only send on the network shown for the order (Zcash mainnet). Wrong-chain deposits can be unrecoverable — review the safety guides before you broadcast.
