  2. Give a ZEC address on Zcash and a contact for the order.

Swap ALGO for ZEC

Check this before sending ALGO

  • The address network is Zcash. Sending through another network almost always means losing the transfer.
  • The transfer must not be smaller than 806.6506 ALGO.
  • Copy the address in full, then check its first and last characters once it is pasted.
  • Send exactly the amount stated in the order: the automation matches your payment against it, and any difference sends the order back for recalculation.

Common questions: ALGO → ZEC

What rate does ALGO to ZEC run at?
As of Sep 30, 2026 12:45 it is 1 ALGO = 0.0000876157 ZEC. The figure updates on its own, and the calculator always shows the current one. On the market that is around $0.122582.
What amounts does ALGO → ZEC accept?
From 806.6506 to 80,800,000 ALGO per order. The floor is roughly $99.84.
Why can I not swap less than 806.6506 ALGO?
The network fee and the handling do not depend on the amount. On a transfer below 806.6506 ALGO they eat a noticeable share of it, and the swap stops making sense for either side.
Is anything charged on top of the rate?
No. The payout is already worked out at the rate in the calculator. Separately you pay only the network fee for sending ALGO, and the blockchain takes that one.
How long does swapping ALGO for ZEC take?
The clock starts with confirmations: as soon as Algorand confirms your transfer, the order goes out for payout with no operator involved. After that the timing is set by how busy the network is — which is the difference between quick and instant.
Which network will ZEC arrive in?
Zcash arrives in its own Zcash network — a plain ZEC address is all you need.
What happens if the rate moves while I am paying?
Nothing: the rate is locked in the order and holds for as long as the order is alive. It is recalculated only if the payment arrives late or for a different amount — so send the exact sum, and send it promptly.
What did the ALGO to ZEC rate do over the month?
Over the month, minus 13.72%: a low of 0.0000616154, a high of 0.000114292, an average of 0.0000828171 ZEC per 1 ALGO.
Can a ALGO to ZEC swap be seen from the outside?
Public networks keep every transfer in the explorer, open to anyone. Privacy coins shut that down: Monero by default, Zcash and Dash when a shielded transfer is picked.
Can I swap back, ZEC for ALGO?
Yes, the reverse is open too: 1 ZEC = 11,413.26 ALGO. The link to switch sits under the calculator.
