How the XLM → ALGO exchange runs

  1. Work out the amount in the calculator — orders start at 450.5258 XLM.
  2. Give a ALGO address on Algorand and a contact for the order.
  3. Send XLM on Stellar, exactly the amount the order shows.
  4. Nothing else is needed from you: as soon as the network confirms the transfer, the robot sends Algorand to your address. The order page shows the status.

Swap XLM for ALGO

Check this before sending XLM

  • The address network is Algorand. Sending through another network almost always means losing the transfer.
  • The transfer must not be smaller than 450.5258 XLM.
  • 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: XLM → ALGO

What rate does XLM to ALGO run at?
As of Oct 1, 2026 00:25 it is 1 XLM = 1.8166 ALGO. The figure updates on its own, and the calculator always shows the current one. On the market that is around $0.225264.
What amounts does XLM → ALGO accept?
From 450.5258 to 44,300,000 XLM per order. The floor is roughly $101.66.
Why can I not swap less than 450.5258 XLM?
The network fee and the handling do not depend on the amount. On a transfer below 450.5258 XLM 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 XLM, and the blockchain takes that one.
How long does swapping XLM for ALGO take?
The clock starts with confirmations: as soon as Stellar 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. A block in Stellar closes in about 5 sec.
Which network will ALGO arrive in?
Algorand arrives in its own Algorand network — a plain ALGO 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 XLM to ALGO rate do over the month?
Over the month, minus 12.09%: a low of 1.7078, a high of 2.0697, an average of 1.9245 ALGO per 1 XLM.
Can I swap back, ALGO for XLM?
Yes, the reverse is open too: 1 ALGO = 0.550453 XLM. The link to switch sits under the calculator.
