# Standard Swaps

Pool makes cross-chain swaps easy and intuitive. Whether you want to connect your wallet directly or use a manual transfer, we’ve got you covered.

You can swap thousands of tokens across multiple chains by leveraging our integrations with leading DEX aggregators such as **Exolix, LetsExchange, Swapuz, ChangeNow, and more.**

{% tab title="🦊 Option 1: Wallet Connect" %}

* Connect directly via **MetaMask, Phantom, Rabby, TrustWallet**, or other supported wallets.
* Transactions are initiated and signed by you inside your wallet app.
* 100% on-chain, fast, and secure.

**Benefits:**

* Seamless experience — no need to copy/paste addresses.
* Transactions typically complete in **0–5 minutes**.
* Best for users who prefer convenience and already have a connected wallet.
  {% endtab %}

{% tab title="📩 Option 2: Manual Send" %}

* No wallet connection required.
* Pool generates a **one-time deposit address** for you.
* You send the crypto you want to trade to that address and specify the destination wallet where you want to receive your swapped funds.

**Benefits:**

* Ideal for users who prefer not to connect wallets directly.
* Transactions typically complete in **0–5 minutes**.
* Lower cost than anonymized swaps while still providing flexibility.
