Exchange in 3 steps
-
Set the OP amount and paste your Ethereum payout address on Ethereum mainnet.
-
Create the order to lock the quote and see the deposit address.
-
Send OP to that deposit. After confirmations, ETH is paid to your wallet.
Before you broadcast
- Optimism confirmations are usually fast — often within a minute.
- Send OP on Optimism mainnet only — not Ethereum, Base, or Arbitrum unless your order says otherwise.
- Use an Optimism-compatible wallet and address (0x…). Leave enough ETH on Optimism for gas if sending ERC-20 tokens.
- 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.
Optimism — Ethereum L2 with low fees
OP is the governance token of Optimism — an Ethereum rollup with fast, low-cost transfers and deep Superchain liquidity.
OP on Optimism mainnet
Use an Optimism wallet for deposits. L1 Ethereum or other L2 sends may not be credited.
Leave enough ETH on Optimism for gas when moving OP or other tokens.
Ethereum — programmable money on-chain
ETH powers Ethereum mainnet — gas, staking, DeFi, and most smart-contract activity in crypto live here.
What if my ETH hasn't arrived?
Check the order page for a payout transaction hash first.
Confirm your wallet is on Ethereum mainnet and fully synced.
How fast is the ETH payout?
Most payouts land within minutes once your deposit confirms — Ethereum blocks are ~12 seconds apart.
Receiving ETH on the correct network
- Payouts go to Ethereum mainnet — not BSC, Base, Arbitrum, or other L2s unless your order explicitly lists them.
- Double-check the address you paste: one wrong character sends funds to an unreachable wallet.
- Self-custody wallets (MetaMask, Rabby, hardware devices) are recommended for long-term holding.
Float vs fixed rate on ETH payouts
The rate mode you pick at the top of the swap widget affects how your final ETH amount is calculated.
- Float rate follows the market until your deposit confirms — best when mempools are quiet.
- Fixed rate locks the quote for a short window — useful when ETH price is moving quickly.

Frequently asked questions
Is identity verification required to trade OP for ETH?
No. GetSwap is a NO-KYC & Privacy-First Crypto Exchange — no profile, no ID upload, and no funded account for Optimism → Ethereum.
How long is a OP → ETH order?
Typical completion is a few minutes. Optimism mainnet and Ethereum mainnet confirmation times set the pace.
Do you custody OP or ETH?
No. You send OP 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 OP network?
Match the network printed on the order (Optimism mainnet). A mismatch can strand the deposit — check the swap safety notes first.
