How to swap ETH to OP

Step 1
Enter the amount of ETH
Choose ETH and OP on the swap card and type how much ETH you want to send. The card shows how much OP you get, with every swap fee already taken out.
Step 2
Check your offer
The card uses the offer that gives you the most OP. “Other offers” lets you compare the partners. Then tap “Swap”.
Step 3
Add your OP address
Paste the address of your OP wallet on the OP Mainnet (Optimism) network, with the memo if your exchange shows one. Check your swap and tap “Create swap”.
Step 4
Send your ETH
Send exactly the amount shown, on the Ethereum (ERC-20) network, to the address the partner gives you. Add the memo if one is shown. Your OP goes straight to your wallet.

Questions about ETH to OP

Which network should I use for ETH?

Use the same network as your wallet. If you receive ETH, it's the network your wallet or exchange shows on its Receive screen. If you send it, it's the network your ETH is on now. ETH is available on: Ethereum (ERC-20), Arbitrum One, OP Mainnet (Optimism), Base, zkSync Era, Linea, Scroll, Manta Pacific, Morph, Robinhood Chain, BNB Smart Chain (BEP-20), Tron (TRC-20), Polygon (PoS), and Starknet.

Do I need a memo for OP?

No. OP on the OP Mainnet (Optimism) network doesn't use a memo.

Do I need an account to swap ETH to OP?

No. You don't need an account with GlobalSwap: you only enter the address that receives your OP and, if you like, a refund address. The partner that carries out your swap may pause it and ask for identity verification, for example if its checks flag a transaction.

How long does a swap from ETH to OP take?

Your swap starts when the Ethereum (ERC-20) network confirms your deposit. Then the partner swaps your coins and sends your OP, which usually takes a few minutes. Your wallet shows your OP once the OP Mainnet (Optimism) network confirms it too. Your swap's page shows each step. When we last checked, the partners stated 2–30 minutes from your confirmed deposit to the payout.

Is there a minimum amount?

Yes. When we checked on October 19, 2026 at 8:26 PM UTC, partners accepted this pair from 0.0012308 ETH. The minimum changes with the market and network fees. If your amount is below it, the swap card says so and offers to use the minimum.
