How the swap works
-
Type the ZEC amount and paste your Polygon payout address on Polygon mainnet.
-
Press Exchange to open the live quote and the deposit address for this order.
-
Broadcast ZEC to that deposit. After the required confirmations, MATIC is sent to your wallet.
Check these before you send
- Zcash confirmations follow mainnet block times — usually a few minutes.
- Transparent (t-) and shielded (z-) addresses are not interchangeable — use the type your order specifies.
- Shielded payouts may take longer to appear depending on wallet support.
- If MATIC 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.
Zcash — shielded privacy is optional
ZEC supports transparent and shielded addresses — use the receive format your wallet actually supports.
Transparent vs shielded ZEC
Sending to the wrong address type is a common failure mode.
If unsure, ask support which format your order uses before broadcasting.
Polygon — low-cost EVM layer-2
MATIC (POL) powers Polygon — fast EVM transfers, low fees, and wide DeFi and bridge liquidity.
MATIC not received?
Confirm your wallet is on Polygon PoS mainnet and fully synced.
MATIC payout tips
- Use a Polygon-compatible wallet and verify the receive address starts with 0x.
- Check Polygonscan with the payout tx hash if your balance has not updated.
- Do not expect MATIC on Ethereum — this route pays out on Polygon PoS.

Frequently asked questions
Does ZEC to MATIC require KYC or an account?
No. PeakSwap does not ask for a profile, ID documents, or a hosted balance for Zcash to Polygon.
How long until MATIC arrives?
Many orders finish in a few minutes. Zcash mainnet deposit confirmations and Polygon mainnet payout time set the wait.
Do you hold ZEC or MATIC for me?
No. You send ZEC from a wallet you control and MATIC is paid to the address you provide — PeakSwap 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.
