Press the settings button above the swap boxes, showing your slippage such as 0.05%, to open Swap Settings.

Swap Settings: slippage and liquidity sources

Between the moment you see a quote and the moment your swap lands on-chain, the price can move. Slippage is how much worse than the quote you’re willing to accept.

  • Choose 0.05%, 0.1% or 1%, or type your own under Custom.
  • The default is 0.05%. The lowest you can set is 0.01%.

Your slippage sets the Minimum received. If the price moves further than you allowed, the swap cancels and your tokens stay in your wallet. You only pay the network fee.

Slippage Good for
Low (0.05%) Most swaps. Protects you, but may cancel when prices move fast
Higher (1% or more) Tokens that move a lot, or small pools. More likely to go through, at a price that can be worse

Under slippage is the list of Liquidity sources: the DEXes PackSwap can route through.

  • Turn a source off to keep your swaps away from it. At least one stays on.
  • Reset turns them all back on.

Fewer sources can mean a quote that gives you less, so most people leave them all on.
