    How the swap works

    1. Type the AVAX amount and paste your Zcash payout address on Zcash mainnet.

    2. Press Exchange to open the live quote and the deposit address for this order.

    3. Broadcast AVAX to that deposit. After the required confirmations, ZEC is sent to your wallet.

    Check these before you send

    • Avalanche C-Chain confirmations are typically very fast — often under a minute.
    • Send AVAX on Avalanche C-Chain only — not X-Chain or P-Chain unless your order specifies them.
    • Use a C-Chain compatible wallet and address (0x…). Leave enough AVAX for gas.
    • If ZEC has not appeared yet, wait a few minutes and refresh the wallet. When the order already shows a payout tx, contact support with your order ID.

    Avalanche — fast smart-contract L1

    AVAX is the native token of Avalanche C-Chain — quick finality, EVM compatibility, and deep cross-chain liquidity.

    AVAX on Avalanche C-Chain

    Use an Avalanche C-Chain wallet for deposits. X-Chain and P-Chain addresses are not interchangeable with C-Chain.

    Leave enough AVAX in your wallet to cover gas on top of the swap amount.

    You receive

    Zcash — shielded privacy is optional

    ZEC supports transparent and shielded addresses — use the receive format your wallet actually supports.

    ZEC receipt troubleshooting

    Confirm address type matches your wallet. Rescan the blockchain in your Zcash client if needed.

    Transparent vs shielded payouts

    Zcash supports both transparent (t-) and shielded (z-) addresses — they are not interchangeable.

    • Use the address type your wallet actually supports before placing the order.
    • Shielded payouts may take longer to appear depending on wallet software.
    • If the order shows a sent tx but balance is zero, rescan the chain in your Zcash client first.

    Frequently asked questions

    Does AVAX to ZEC require KYC or an account?

    No. PeakSwap does not ask for a profile, ID documents, or a hosted balance for Avalanche to Zcash.

    How long until ZEC arrives?

    Many orders finish in a few minutes. Avalanche C-Chain deposit confirmations and Zcash mainnet payout time set the wait.

    Do you hold AVAX or ZEC for me?

    No. You send AVAX from a wallet you control and ZEC is paid to the address you provide — PeakSwap does not keep a user wallet.

    What if I send AVAX on the wrong chain?

    Use Avalanche C-Chain exactly as shown on the order. A wrong-network send may not be credited — read the swap safety notes first.
