Swap ADA to DAI

Exchange ADA from Cardano into DAI on Ethereum. The provider waits for the ADA deposit before arranging the DAI payout on the destination network. Track those as separate transactions rather than using a sending-chain confirmation as proof of receipt.

Enter your amount to check live availability for ADA on Mainnet → DAI on ERC20. A provider quote is required before you can create a swap.

Address and network checks

Use the order’s Cardano deposit address for ADA, and your own Ethereum receiving address for DAI. Keep the refund address on Cardano; the payout address is not automatically a valid refund destination.

Sending ADA

Choose Cardano using the Mainnet option shown in this directory. Follow the selected provider’s exact deposit instructions before sending. Use a Cardano payment/receiving address from your wallet. A staking reward address is used for a different purpose and should not be substituted for a regular receiving address.

For a standard self-custody transfer on Cardano, allow for network fees in ADA in addition to the amount you send. Wallet sponsorship and exchange withdrawal charges can differ; check the sending wallet’s final fee.

Receiving DAI

Choose Ethereum mainnet in the wallet. Base, Arbitrum and OP Mainnet use separate balances even when the account address looks identical. DAI and USDS have separate token identities. Send DAI for a DAI order; holding or using an upgraded token does not make it interchangeable with this deposit asset. This listed DAI/ERC20 option has no separate memo field. If your destination requires additional instructions that this form cannot supply, choose another compatible destination before creating an order.

Refund address for this pair

Enter a refund address that accepts ADA on Mainnet. The refund is sent in ADA on Mainnet; verify that your refund wallet supports this exact asset and network.

About this ADA / DAI route

Can I swap ADA on Mainnet to DAI on ERC20?

Which network fee applies when sending ADA?

For a standard self-custody transfer on Cardano, allow for network fees in ADA in addition to the amount you send. Wallet sponsorship and exchange withdrawal charges can differ; check the sending wallet’s final fee.

What should I check before receiving DAI on Ethereum?

DAI and USDS have separate token identities. Send DAI for a DAI order; holding or using an upgraded token does not make it interchangeable with this deposit asset. This listed DAI/ERC20 option has no separate memo field. If your destination requires additional instructions that this form cannot supply, choose another compatible destination before creating an order.

How much DAI will I get for ADA?

Enter your ADA amount to see an approximate receive amount. Click Find the best route to compare providers. Floating rates can change before conversion; fixed quotes follow the selected provider’s terms.

Does a confirmed ADA deposit mean my DAI has arrived?

No. Deposit confirmation on Cardano, provider processing and payout on Ethereum are separate steps. Use Track swap to see the order status, then check the DAI balance on the receiving network. A live quote or historical route check does not guarantee completion time.
