Three steps on ToSwap
-
Set the ZEC amount and paste the Dai address that should collect payout on ERC-20 on Ethereum.
-
Tap Exchange to lock the live ToSwap quote and reveal this order’s deposit details.
-
Send exactly that ZEC amount to the deposit. After Zcash mainnet confirms, DAI is pushed to your wallet.
Before you broadcast
- 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 DAI is late, refresh your wallet and re-check the order status. When a payout hash is already listed, email or SimpleX support with your Exchange ID — ToSwap has no login that can reopen expired pages.
Zcash on ToSwap — pick t-addr or shielded
ZEC lets you choose transparent or shielded receives. ToSwap prints the format on the order — mixing them is the usual way a Zcash deposit fails to credit.
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.
Dai on Ethereum
Credit DAI only on ERC-20 on Ethereum. A transfer on any other chain will not show up on this order.
When DAI arrives
Set your wallet to ERC-20 on Ethereum.
If the order already lists a payout tx, wait a few minutes and resync before contacting support.
Deposit checklist
Chain mismatches and bad addresses are the usual failure modes — skim these notes before you fund the deposit.

FAQ for this route
Is KYC or a ToSwap account required for ZEC → DAI?
No. ToSwap never opens a profile or asks for ID documents on a standard Zcash to Dai order. You stay non-custodial on both legs.
How fast does DAI usually arrive?
Many payouts leave within minutes after the Zcash mainnet deposit confirms. Congestion on Zcash mainnet or ERC-20 on Ethereum can stretch that — fees and mempools set the clock, not a manual review.
Does ToSwap hold my ZEC or DAI?
No hosted balance. You broadcast ZEC from a wallet you control; DAI is paid only to the address you paste. Nothing sits under a ToSwap username.
What if I send ZEC on the wrong network?
Match Zcash mainnet exactly as printed on the order badge. A wrong-chain deposit often cannot be credited automatically — double-check before you broadcast.
