FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the Stargate bridge work?
Connect your wallet, select your source blockchain and destination chain, enter the amount you want to bridge, and approve the transaction in your wallet. Stargate's smart contracts lock your tokens on the source chain and release them on the destination chain within seconds. Settlement is instant and guaranteed by deep liquidity pools.
What blockchains does Stargate support?
Stargate bridges across Ethereum, Polygon, Arbitrum One, Optimism, Avalanche, Fantom, Base, Linea, Scroll, Metis, Mantle, and zkSync. New chains are added regularly. Check the bridge interface for current supported routes and any temporary capacity limits.
How much does it cost to bridge?
Bridge fees are typically 0.04% of the transfer amount plus network gas costs. Gas fees vary depending on your source blockchain's current congestion. See the exact fee and slippage before you confirm. No hidden charges. Fees support liquidity providers and STG stakers.
Why is my bridge pending?
Bridges typically settle in 15 seconds. If yours is taking longer, the source blockchain may be congested. Check the transaction on your source chain's block explorer using your wallet address. Your bridge will complete once the blockchain confirms the transaction.
Is my transfer secure?
Yes. Stargate contracts are non-custodial and have been audited by leading security firms. You always control your private keys. Tokens are locked and released by smart contracts, not by any intermediary. Your assets are never held by Stargate Finance.

TESTIMONIALS

What Users Say

Morgan Lee (Seattle)
Bridged 5000 USDC from Polygon to Arbitrum. Arrived in 8 seconds. Fees were transparent and minimal. This is what DeFi should feel like.
Patricia Okafor (Chicago)
Cross-chain bridging was my biggest pain point before Stargate. Now it's the easiest part of my trading day. Deep liquidity, fast settlement, fair pricing.
David Volkov (Miami)
Great bridge overall. One transfer took a bit longer due to network congestion, but it confirmed and support explained the delay was external.
