Fill in the recipient address manually or connect your recipient wallet and click on ‘Use My Wallet’, which will automatically insert your recipient address. Double-check to ensure all details are correct before proceeding.

The Swap is configured with default slippage settings. If you wish to adjust this, click on the icon at the top right corner of the Swap window and specify your custom settings.

Details of the Swap (e.g., Minimum output amount, allowed slippage, protocol fee, etc.) are listed in the ‘Swap details’ drop-down menu.

Once everything is correct, proceed by clicking on the Review button, which will bring you to a summary of your Swap.
