How the XLM → SAND exchange runs
- Work out the amount in the calculator — orders start at 912.7419 XLM.
- Give a SAND address on The Sandbox and a contact for the order.
- Send XLM on Stellar, exactly the amount the order shows.
- Nothing else is needed from you: as soon as the network confirms the transfer, the robot sends The Sandbox to your address. The order page shows the status.
Check this before sending XLM
- The address network is The Sandbox. Sending through another network almost always means losing the transfer.
- The transfer must not be smaller than 912.7419 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 → SAND
What rate does XLM to SAND run at?
As of Oct 1, 2026 01:20 it is 1 XLM = 5.2488 SAND. The figure updates on its own, and the calculator always shows the current one. On the market that is around $0.224564.
What amounts does XLM → SAND accept?
From 912.7419 to 44,400,000 XLM per order. The floor is roughly $205.40.
Why can I not swap less than 912.7419 XLM?
The network fee and the handling do not depend on the amount. On a transfer below 912.7419 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 SAND 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 SAND arrive in?
The Sandbox arrives in its own The Sandbox network — a plain SAND 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 SAND rate do over the month?
Over the month, plus 9.17%: a low of 4.4673, a high of 5.3827, an average of 4.9087 SAND per 1 XLM.
Can I swap back, SAND for XLM?
Yes, the reverse is open too: 1 SAND = 0.190514 XLM. The link to switch sits under the calculator.
