Networks and wallets for XMR to ZEC
Monero mainnet
Follow the provider’s instructions for native XMR, including the address format it supplies. Use your sending wallet to check the transfer and keep its transaction ID with the order.
Zcash mainnet
Check which Zcash address formats the payout provider accepts before copying one from your wallet. A Unified Address can include both shielded and transparent receivers. The receiver used for the payout determines whether that output is shielded.
Zcash and Monero use separate networks and wallet formats. Confirm the Zcash address type accepted by the provider, and verify the Monero leg with an XMR wallet. Compare both legs before choosing a quote.
How to convert XMR to ZEC
- Check that a live provider quotes your XMR deposit network and the ZEC payout network you need.
- Compare the amount of ZEC you would receive after fees, then confirm the receiving address and any memo or tag required for your payout.
- If you go ahead, follow the live order’s deposit instructions. Keep the order ID and the XMR transaction reference, then verify the ZEC payout in your receiving wallet.
How to compare XMR to ZEC rates
For a rough pre-fee estimate, multiply the XMR amount by the rate expressed in ZEC per XMR. Then compare the actual ZEC payout for the same XMR amount and network. Check whether the withdrawal fee comes out of what you send or is charged separately.
