What it does
KyberSwap routes wallet-based token exchanges across liquidity sources, with separate Swap, Limit Order and Cross-Chain modes. Kyber Earn provides access to positions on other liquidity protocols. The main trade screen exposes expected output, slippage choices and the proposed route.
The trading screen makes the order type a first decision: use Swap for a quoted exchange, Limit Order for a target rate or Cross-Chain for different sending and receiving networks. Connect the wallet, select the chain and tokens, and inspect Est. Output, Max Slippage and Route before signing. A wider slippage allowance permits a larger difference between the displayed and executed price.
Swaps made directly on KyberSwap.com have no KyberSwap protocol fee. Network and underlying liquidity costs still matter, and certain trades are subject to positive-surplus and dust collection. External integrations can add their own fees, including through a supplied swap link, so inspect the displayed charges even when the page is on the official domain.
Other products have separate schedules. Cross-chain fees range from 0.05% to 0.25% depending on route and token category; limit-order charges apply to takers. Kyber Earn serves liquidity management rather than an ordinary token exchange.
A Web3 wallet and tokens on a supported chain are the starting requirements. Website access excludes specified jurisdictions, including Russia, Belarus and Viet Nam, among others. Wallet access does not override those restrictions or make a transaction reversible.
