While Magic Eden offers a cross-chain swap experience, it's important to note that Magic Eden itself does not directly execute any swaps. Instead, Magic Eden acts as a swap aggregator that connects you to third-party API swap providers to facilitate these transactions.

Understanding third party API providers

Third-party API providers are external services and platforms that facilitate cryptocurrency swaps and provide real-time market data.

  • Third party swaps providers include Jupiter, LiFi, Relay, and Exodus.

  • Additionally, information providers like CoinGecko and Codex deliver price data and market insights.

Terms of service and usage

By using Magic Eden and engaging in swap transactions, you agree to abide by the terms and conditions set forth by Exodus, LiFi, Relay, and Jupiter. It's essential to review and understand these terms, as they govern your use of their services. You can access our third party API provider’s terms of service here:

Additional security measures in rare cases

In rare cases, certain swaps may trigger security protocols through these providers to safeguard both you and the ecosystem. These security protocols are designed to detect and mitigate potential risks such as fraudulent activity, unauthorized access, or suspicious transactions. When such protocols are triggered, additional measures may be necessary to ensure the swap is completed successfully.

These additional measures could include:

Enhanced verification procedures

In some cases, third-party API providers may require additional verification steps before completing a transaction. In these instances, you may be required to provide additional documentation or complete identity verification.

Temporary hold or suspension

Sometimes, your funds may be held by the third-party API (and possibly refunded) until the additional verification steps are completed. Magic Eden is not involved with the holding of funds or suspension of trading.
