What it does
WingRiders is a Cardano exchange where agents collect wallet-signed swap requests and execute them in batches. Its transaction settings include slippage and a deadline. Unfulfilled requests can be reclaimed after that deadline.
Signing a WingRiders swap submits a request for an agent to process. In Swap, choose the assets and fill either the input or desired output. Open the gear beside the form for Transaction settings, including slippage tolerance and the request deadline. Total fees expands the cost breakdown before Swap, Confirm and wallet signing.
If the request misses its deadline, open Transactions, then Pending transactions, and choose Reclaim. Review Confirm reclaim, confirm again and sign in the wallet. A deadline that is too short or a very tight price tolerance can leave a request unfilled.
A routed exchange can cross two pools. WingRiders warns that the second part might not execute if prices move, so follow both stages rather than treating the first completion as the final asset receipt.
Costs include the pool swap charge, the agent charge and network transactions. Some pools also impose a project fee. Request Oil ADA is different: it is a returnable deposit included to meet Cardano transaction-output requirements, and is returned when the request completes. It should not be confused with a fee that has been spent.
