Swap Details​

SwapDetails

  1. Exchange Rate for the Selected Tokens: This is the current exchange rate, based on the on-chain prices for the selected tokens
  2. Minimum Received: This takes into account the slippage setting and market liquidity to compute the minimum amount that you will receive even with maximum price fluctuations for a successful swap.
  3. Max Transaction Fee: This is the maximum fee you will pay to execute the quoted transaction. This takes into account your selected fee settings.
  4. Deposit: If you are transacting assets you have not owned before, Solana may require a small deposit amount to create the ATA account in your wallet to hold that asset. This will only occur with assets you have not owned previously.
  5. Price Impact: Price Impact is influenced by the available liquidity to settle the trade. The larger the trade the larger the price impact on the selected assets.
  6. Price Difference: We show the quoted rate (from Jupiter) against the market rate. The price difference can be due to various external factors such as price impact, token tax, etc.
