Fetch (FET) is the native utility token of the Fetch.ai network, used to pay for services and participate in the AI-driven autonomous agent ecosystem. Traders and developers frequently swap into or out of FET when moving between exchanges or rebalancing holdings across Ethereum and BNB Smart Chain. Because FET exists on two major networks, choosing the right one for your destination is a critical first step before initiating any swap.
Exchange Fetch
Before exchanging Fetch
Before swapping FET, confirm which network your receiving wallet or exchange supports — Ethereum or BNB Smart Chain — since sending on the wrong network will result in funds that cannot be accessed at the destination. Network choice also influences the fee you pay and how quickly the transaction is picked up by the receiving platform, so it is worth checking both sides before confirming. Ethereum-based FET uses the standard ERC-20 address format, while BNB Smart Chain FET uses the BEP-20 format; both share the same address style visually, so the network selector is your only reliable guide. The swap widget on Zest displays the rate and network details before you confirm, giving you a chance to review everything without any signup required. No memo or destination tag is needed when swapping FET on either supported network.

Frequently Asked Questions
The right network depends entirely on where you are sending the FET. Check whether your destination wallet or exchange lists an ERC-20 or BEP-20 deposit address for FET, and select the matching network in the swap widget. Sending ERC-20 FET to a BEP-20 address, or vice versa, can result in inaccessible funds.
Ethereum and BNB Smart Chain addresses look identical in format, so you cannot tell them apart just by reading the address string. Always confirm the network your receiving platform specifies for FET deposits rather than relying on address appearance alone. Selecting the wrong network in the swap widget is one of the most common errors when exchanging multi-network tokens like FET.
Minimums vary by pair and network. The exchange widget shows the exact minimum and maximum for your selected pair before you confirm, so you can check the limits before sending anything.
No signup is required for standard swaps. Zest is non-custodial: you send from and receive to wallets you control, and the rate is shown before you confirm.
