Review swap settings (optional)

Click the settings icon to open Swap Settings:
Slippage is the difference between the price you expect and the price your swap actually executes at. Prices can change between submission and confirmation because other trades are happening or liquidity is thin. Slippage tolerance sets how much price movement you’re willing to accept. If the price moves more than your limit, the swap fails instead of executing at a worse price. Leaving slippage set to Auto is usually the safest option.
  • Slippage Tolerance: Keep Auto unless you know why you’re changing it. Use Custom only if you understand the risk of a worse price.
  • Priority Fee: Controls how aggressively the transaction is sent. Leaving it on the default is fine for most swaps.
  • Swap Mode: Imperative for manual control of the route and execution, Declarative for more automated behavior. If you’re new, leave the default.
  • Explorer: Choose where you want to view the transaction after it’s sent (for example, Orb or Solscan).
Close the settings panel when done.Swap settings panel

Confirm the result

After the transaction confirms, the Buy token balance should update in your wallet. Use the selected Explorer to view the transaction if you want to verify it onchain.

Common issues

  • Not enough SOL for fees: keep a small SOL balance for network fees.
  • Transaction fails: prices may have moved or liquidity may be thin. Try again or reduce size.
  • Token doesn’t show up: the swap can succeed even if the wallet UI is slow to refresh. Check the explorer link.
