How the swap works
-
Type the OP amount and paste your Ethereum payout address on Ethereum mainnet.
-
Press Exchange to open the live quote and the deposit address for this order.
-
Broadcast OP to that deposit. After the required confirmations, ETH is sent to your wallet.
Check these before you send
- Optimism confirmations are usually fast — often within a minute.
- Send OP on Optimism mainnet only — not Ethereum, Base, or Arbitrum unless your order says otherwise.
- Use an Optimism-compatible wallet and address (0x…). Leave enough ETH on Optimism for gas if sending ERC-20 tokens.
- If ETH 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.
Optimism — Ethereum L2 with low fees
OP is the governance token of Optimism — an Ethereum rollup with fast, low-cost transfers and deep Superchain liquidity.
OP on Optimism mainnet
Use an Optimism wallet for deposits. L1 Ethereum or other L2 sends may not be credited.
Leave enough ETH on Optimism for gas when moving OP or other tokens.
Ethereum — smart-contract base layer
ETH is the gas and settlement asset of Ethereum mainnet — staking, DeFi, and most contract activity run here.
ETH payout not showing?
Check the order page for a payout transaction hash first.
Confirm your wallet is on Ethereum mainnet and fully synced.
ETH payout timing
Most payouts land within minutes once your deposit confirms — Ethereum blocks are ~12 seconds apart.
ETH must land on the listed chain
- Payouts go to Ethereum mainnet — not BSC, Base, Arbitrum, or other L2s unless your order explicitly lists them.
- Double-check the address you paste: one wrong character sends funds to an unreachable wallet.
- Self-custody wallets (MetaMask, Rabby, hardware devices) are recommended for long-term holding.
Float vs fixed rate on ETH payouts
The rate mode you pick at the top of the swap widget affects how your final ETH amount is calculated.
- Float rate follows the market until your deposit confirms — best when mempools are quiet.
- Fixed rate locks the quote for a short window — useful when ETH price is moving quickly.

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