How the POL → ADA order runs
- Work out the amount in the calculator: orders start at 2,093.58 POL.
- Enter a ADA address in Cardano and a way to reach you.
- Send POL in Polygon PoS for exactly the amount stated in the order.
- Once the network confirms your transfer, Cardano leaves for your address. The order page tracks every step.
Check this before sending POL
- The address network is Cardano. Sending through another network usually means losing the transfer.
- The transfer must not be smaller than 2,093.58 POL.
- Copy the address whole, then compare the first and last characters after pasting.
- Coins go through an AML check: a flagged transfer can be held until the check is finished.
