Networks and wallets for ZEC to ALGO
Zcash mainnet
Check whether the deposit instructions use a transparent, shielded or Unified Address. Your Zcash wallet must support the supplied format and a compatible receiver within a Unified Address.
Algorand mainnet (native ALGO)
Use an Algorand mainnet address for native ALGO. For a new self-custody address, check the minimum amount needed to fund the account before comparing the payout with your quote.
Check ZEC deposit and ALGO payout availability separately. The live service needs to accept your source network and offer the destination network that your ALGO wallet expects.
How to convert ZEC to ALGO
- Check that a live provider quotes your ZEC deposit network and the ALGO payout network you need.
- Compare the amount of ALGO 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 ZEC transaction reference, then verify the ALGO payout in your receiving wallet.
How to compare ZEC to ALGO rates
For a rough pre-fee estimate, multiply the ZEC amount by the rate expressed in ALGO per ZEC. Then compare the actual ALGO payout for the same ZEC amount and network. Check whether the withdrawal fee comes out of what you send or is charged separately.
Orbit uses a $100 minimum. The estimate on this page uses reference market prices before fees. An executable quote, including any additional route limits, comes from a live settlement provider.
