Which network should I use when sending LINK for a LINK to BNB swap?

LINK can be sent from Ethereum, BNB Smart Chain, Arbitrum, or Polygon. Choose the network that matches where your LINK is currently held. Selecting a mismatched network can result in failed or lost transactions, so confirm the send network in Zest matches your wallet's network before proceeding.

Why do traders commonly swap LINK for BNB?

Traders often make this swap to shift from Chainlink's oracle and DeFi tooling exposure into BNB, which underpins transaction fees, smart contracts, and a wide range of services on BNB Smart Chain. It's also a practical step when moving funds into the BNB Smart Chain ecosystem to participate in its marketplace and payments infrastructure. The shared BNB Smart Chain support on both assets can make the route efficient when both sides use that network.

Should I choose a fixed or floating rate for LINK to BNB?

Most users pick a fixed rate for this route: it locks the amount of BNB you receive when you create the order, so price movement while your LINK deposit confirms does not change the payout. A floating rate follows the market and can pay slightly more or less at execution time. You can choose either in the swap form before confirming.

How long does a LINK to BNB exchange take?

Timing depends on how quickly your LINK deposit confirms on-chain, exchange processing, and BNB network conditions. Congestion on either network can extend the wait, and the order page tracks each step while your swap runs.

Do I need an account to exchange LINK for BNB?

No signup is required for standard swaps. Zest is non-custodial — you send LINK from your own wallet and receive BNB at an address you control, with the rate shown before you confirm.

How to swap LINK for BNB

1
Open the exchange widget and select LINK as the send currency and BNB as the receive currency. The widget shows the live rate and the minimum amount for this pair.
2
Enter the amount of LINK you want to exchange and choose a fixed or floating rate.
3
Paste your BNB wallet address into the recipient field and double-check it. Select the network your wallet supports -- the receive network must match where your address lives.
4
Click Exchange and send your LINK to the deposit address shown. Your BNB arrives once the transaction confirms on-chain.

Before exchanging LINK → BNB

Before confirming your LINK to BNB swap, verify which network your LINK is held on — Ethereum, BNB Smart Chain, Arbitrum, or Polygon are all supported, and the network you select for sending must match the source of your funds. On the receiving side, BNB is available on BNB Smart Chain and opBNB, so confirm your destination wallet supports whichever network you choose. Neither LINK nor BNB requires a memo or destination tag on any of their supported networks, so no extra identifier is needed. Confirmation times can vary depending on the source network's congestion, so factor that in if timing matters. Double-check your receiving address carefully before submitting — non-custodial swaps cannot be reversed once broadcast.
