Fees & slippage
Understand what you send, what you receive, and what can change.
Reading a quote#
Route amounts are indicative and are not executable market quotes. The sending amount is the quantity of the source token. The receiving amount is the estimated quantity of the destination token after the displayed bridge fee. When the two tokens differ, their prices affect the conversion.
Review the sending amount, estimated receipt, bridge fee, and minimum received together before confirming.
Bridge fee#
The bridge fee appears below the asset panels and again on the review screen. It is included in the estimated receiving amount. Check the fee after changing a network, token, or amount.
Slippage tolerance#
Open the settings button beside the direction tabs to choose 0.1%, 0.5%, or 1%. The review screen calculates minimum received as the estimated output multiplied by one minus the selected tolerance.
For an estimated output of 99.95 USDC and a 0.5% tolerance, the displayed minimum received is 99.45025 USDC.
Gas on Arc#
Arc charges network gas in USDC. Network gas and bridge fees are separate costs. Official Arc gas reference ↗.
