How the swap works
-
Enter the ZEC amount and your Stellar payout address on Stellar mainnet.
-
Confirm to open the live quote and the deposit address for this PrivSwap session.
-
Send ZEC to that deposit. After the required confirmations, XLM is paid to your wallet.
Check these before you send
- Zcash confirmations follow mainnet block times — usually a few minutes — privacy-first on PrivSwap.
- Transparent (t-) and shielded (z-) addresses are not interchangeable — use the type your order specifies — privacy-first on PrivSwap.
- Shielded payouts may take longer to appear depending on wallet support — privacy-first on PrivSwap.
- If XLM is not visible yet, wait a few minutes and resync the wallet. When the order already lists a payout tx, message support with your Exchange ID.
Zcash — transparent or shielded on purpose
ZEC offers t- and z-addresses. On PrivSwap, match the exact format the order shows — the two types are not interchangeable.
Transparent vs shielded ZEC
Sending to the wrong address type is a common failure mode — privacy-first on PrivSwap.
If unsure, ask support which format your order uses before broadcasting — privacy-first on PrivSwap.
Stellar — fast payments network
XLM (Stellar Lumens) powers the Stellar network — built for low-cost cross-border transfers and tokenized assets — privacy-first on PrivSwap.
XLM not visible yet?
Resync your Stellar wallet. If the order shows a sent transaction, verify the address and memo match your wallet — privacy-first on PrivSwap.
When will XLM arrive?
Stellar settlements are usually very quick once your deposit confirms — privacy-first on PrivSwap.
- Check Stellar Expert or a similar explorer with the payout tx hash — privacy-first on PrivSwap.
- Confirm whether your wallet needs a destination memo for incoming funds — privacy-first on PrivSwap.
- Keep a small XLM reserve if your wallet requires a minimum balance — privacy-first on PrivSwap.

Privacy swap FAQ
Does ZEC to XLM require KYC or an account?
No. PrivSwap does not ask for a profile, ID documents, or a hosted balance for Zcash to Stellar.
How long until XLM arrives?
Many orders finish in a few minutes. Zcash mainnet deposit confirmations and Stellar mainnet payout time set the wait.
Do you hold ZEC or XLM for me?
No. You send ZEC from a wallet you control and XLM is paid to the address you provide — PrivSwap does not keep a user wallet.
What if I send ZEC on the wrong chain?
Use Zcash mainnet exactly as shown on the order. A wrong-network send may not be credited — read the swap safety notes first.
