How the swap works
-
Enter the ZEC amount and paste a Monero mainnet receive address — a new subaddress is recommended — privacy-first on PrivSwap.
-
Open the order to see the live quote and the Zcash deposit address — privacy-first on PrivSwap.
-
Send ZEC on Zcash mainnet. After confirmations, XMR is paid to your wallet — privacy-first on PrivSwap.
Check these before you send
- Zcash confirmations follow mainnet block times — transparent and shielded sends both need the correct address type — privacy-first on PrivSwap.
- Generate a fresh Monero subaddress for each order. Do not reuse old XMR receive addresses — privacy-first on PrivSwap.
- XMR outputs may not show until your Monero wallet finishes a sync — wait several minutes before opening support — privacy-first on PrivSwap.
- This route moves between two privacy models — confirm ZEC send type and XMR subaddress format before broadcasting — privacy-first on PrivSwap.
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.
Monero — default privacy-wallet asset
Monero hides amounts and destinations with ring signatures and one-time addresses — a core privacy-first asset for anonymous NO-KYC swaps on PrivSwap.
XMR still invisible?
Finish wallet sync — Monero often needs minutes to show incoming outputs.
If PrivSwap lists a payout but a synced wallet shows nothing, message support.
Receiving XMR privately on PrivSwap
XMR payouts use one-time addresses — finish scanning recent blocks to see the balance.
- Use a fresh subaddress per swap instead of recycling old receives.
- Compare your wallet block height with a public explorer before assuming a payout failed — privacy-first on PrivSwap.
- Allow extra time after PrivSwap shows sent — privacy scanning can delay display.

Privacy swap FAQ
Does ZEC to XMR require KYC or an account?
No. PrivSwap does not ask for a profile, ID documents, or a hosted balance for Zcash to Monero.
How long until XMR arrives?
Many orders finish in a few minutes. Zcash mainnet deposit confirmations and Monero mainnet payout time set the wait.
Do you hold ZEC or XMR for me?
No. You send ZEC from a wallet you control and XMR 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.
