Exchange in 3 steps
-
Set the DOT amount and paste your Ethereum (Base) payout address on Base mainnet.
-
Create the order to lock the quote and see the deposit address.
-
Send DOT to that deposit. After confirmations, ETH is paid to your wallet.
Before you broadcast
- Deposits on Polkadot mainnet follow that chain's confirmation times.
- Network congestion can occasionally delay inclusion — check status if stuck.
- Send only DOT on Polkadot mainnet to the address on your order page.
- ETH not visible yet? Wait a few minutes, resync your wallet, then contact support with your order ID if the payout tx is already listed.
Polkadot
Always match DOT on Polkadot mainnet when you send or receive — wrong-network transfers may not be credited.
Before you send
Use a wallet that supports Polkadot mainnet.
Verify the deposit network on your order page matches your wallet.
ETH on Base — Coinbase L2
Native ETH on Base — Ethereum's value on Coinbase's L2 with low fees, fast finality, and growing on-chain activity.
Base ETH not received?
Confirm your wallet is on Base mainnet and fully synced — not Ethereum L1.
Base ETH payout tips
- Payouts go to Base — verify your wallet network is Base (chain ID 8453).
- Check Basescan with the payout tx hash from your order page.
- Bridging to Ethereum L1 is a separate step after you receive ETH on Base.

Frequently asked questions
Is identity verification required to trade DOT for ETH?
No. GetSwap is a NO-KYC & Privacy-First Crypto Exchange — no profile, no ID upload, and no funded account for Polkadot → Ethereum (Base).
How long is a DOT → ETH order?
Typical completion is a few minutes. Polkadot mainnet and Base mainnet confirmation times set the pace.
Do you custody DOT or ETH?
No. You send DOT yourself and ETH is paid to the address you enter — GetSwap does not keep a wallet balance for you.
What if I pick the wrong DOT network?
Match the network printed on the order (Polkadot mainnet). A mismatch can strand the deposit — check the swap safety notes first.
