How the POL → ADA exchange runs
- Work out the amount in the calculator — orders start at 854.7292 POL.
- Give a ADA address on Cardano and a contact for the order.
- Send POL on Polygon PoS, exactly the amount the order shows.
- Nothing else is needed from you: as soon as the network confirms the transfer, the robot sends Cardano to your address. The order page shows the status.
Check this before sending POL
- The address network is Cardano. Sending through another network almost always means losing the transfer.
- The transfer must not be smaller than 854.7292 POL.
- 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.

Why people take the POL → ADA route
- Fuel for CardanoWithout Cardano you cannot pay for a transfer or a contract call in Cardano — the coin is needed for anything that happens in that ecosystem.
- Different basketsDaily moves of POL and ADA over 90 days link at 0.65 (they travel alike) — the weaker the link, the less a portfolio rests on one coin.
- It works both waysThe ADA → POL direction is open as well — going back into POL takes the same route and the same automation.
Common questions: POL → ADA
What rate does POL to ADA run at?
As of Sep 30, 2026 09:05 it is 1 POL = 0.477213 ADA. The figure updates on its own, and the calculator always shows the current one. On the market that is around $0.116313.
What amounts does POL → ADA accept?
From 854.7292 to 85,900,000 POL per order. The floor is roughly $99.55.
Why can I not swap less than 854.7292 POL?
The network fee and the handling do not depend on the amount. On a transfer below 854.7292 POL 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 POL, and the blockchain takes that one.
How long does swapping POL for ADA take?
The clock starts with confirmations: as soon as Polygon PoS 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 ADA arrive in?
Cardano arrives in its own Cardano network — a plain ADA 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 POL to ADA rate do over the month?
Over the month, minus 8.65%: a low of 0.424547, a high of 0.53036, an average of 0.462085 ADA per 1 POL.
Can I swap back, ADA for POL?
Yes, the reverse is open too: 1 ADA = 2.0955 POL. The link to switch sits under the calculator.
