Swap

Swap Base (ETH)

Swap on Base via the non-custodial DEX, with best-price routing and cross-chain bridges to Ethereum and other EVM chains.

How Base swaps on U.CASH

Base swaps on the U.CASH non-custodial DEX. The routing engine scans every pool for the best price and bridges across networks, all in one signed transaction. Your wallet signs every swap and the output settles on-chain to an address you control.

Why swap Base here

Price first

The router shops every connected venue before you sign, so the quote you approve already won the comparison.

Signature economy

One approval and one swap on ERC-20 assets: no approval treadmill, no repeated prompts.

Chains are not walls

ETH moves between networks through cross-chain routes quoted with the swap itself.

Fee you can read

One flat fee on the output, stated in the quote. Nothing rides behind the number.

Your wallet is the destination

Settlement lands at addresses you control, and the keys never leave your side.

Depth on depth

Thousands of pairs reachable from ETH, from the majors down the long tail.

How to swap Base

Step 01

Output lands

Your ETH arrives on-chain at the receiving address you set.

Before you start

The setup is deliberately short. One wallet capable of holding Base and a little ETH for gas on its chain, one receiving address for the output, and you have everything: a web3 name resolves to the address just as well as the raw string. Read the preview before signing, since it carries the whole trade at a glance, the amounts in and out, the fee, and the network cost. The wallet remains yours throughout and signs nothing you have not seen on screen, which is the whole security posture in one sentence.

Fees and settlement

Two costs, both visible up front. The platform charges a flat 0.50% all-in on the swap and nothing hidden behind it, no spread and no routing cut. The network charges its gas in ETH, settling with about 2 seconds blocks on Optimistic Rollup (OP Stack), itemized per leg in the preview. What settles is on-chain to the address you chose, under this asset's policy of Credited after a few L2 confirmations, typically under a minute; deeper finality on Ethereum L1., and once confirmed the balance is entirely yours to move with no platform anywhere in the path.

Execution runs through the aggregated DEX route, which means the number you approved is the number that happens or the transaction reverts: swaps are atomic, with no half-settled state to unwind and no exposure window between legs. If a route cannot fill at your approved bounds it fails cleanly and you re-quote, which is the failure mode you want, cheap and loud rather than silent and expensive.

Swapping Base: FAQ

How does swapping on Base work?
Swaps route through the non-custodial DEX with best-price routing across liquidity sources. Your tokens move directly between your own wallet and the contracts.
Can I bridge tokens to or from Base?
Yes. Cross-chain bridges connect Base to Ethereum and other EVM chains so you can move assets without a custodial middleman.
What does swapping Base cost?
A flat 0.50% all-in on the swap plus the network gas, both shown in the quote before you sign. No spread, no routing cut, no settlement surprise.
How fast does a Base swap settle?
At the chain's pace: ~2 seconds blocks on Optimistic Rollup (OP Stack), with the platform acting on the stated confirmation policy. The preview shows the expectation with the quote.
Can I swap Base cross-chain?
Yes: routes that cross networks are quoted alongside same-chain ones, and where Base exists on several chains the engine moves between its native forms through liquidity rather than pooled custody.
