Polkadot and Tezos live on different blockchains, and this swap uses the native assets on both, with no bridge contract and no wrapped token. The exchange receives DOT on Polkadot and pays out XTZ on Tezos.
Your XTZ is paid on Tezos. Use an address that starts with tz1, tz2 or tz3. If your wallet or exchange gave you a memo, enter it as well; for a personal wallet it can usually be left empty.

Type how much DOT you want to swap (minimum about 2.33 DOT). The XTZ you will receive updates live.
The top no-KYC offer is preselected. Open 'All offers' to compare fixed and floating rates, speed and each exchange's KYC rating.
Paste the Tezos address where you want to be paid, plus a memo if you were given one. A refund address for your DOT is optional but recommended.
Send the exact amount to the deposit address on Polkadot. After it confirms (about 1-2 minutes), the XTZ is sent to your address.

Enter the DOT amount on this page, choose an offer, paste your XTZ address and send your DOT to the deposit address shown. AltoSwap has no accounts and asks for no identity documents, and by default it only shows exchanges rated A for KYC, meaning providers that do not run identity checks. The XTZ is paid directly to your wallet.
At the last update, 1 DOT ≈ 3.36116 XTZ (the best of 1 offer for 200 DOT). Rates move with the market every few seconds, so use the calculator at the top of the page for the live rate on your exact amount.
The minimum is about 2.33 DOT and the maximum about 727,000 DOT. Limits vary slightly between exchanges and follow market prices; the form tells you immediately if your amount is outside the range.
Usually around 28 min. Most of that is waiting for your DOT deposit to confirm on Polkadot, which takes about 1-2 minutes. There is no verification step, so nothing else adds to the wait.
AltoSwap does not know who you are (no account, no email, no identity checks) and the default route uses no-KYC exchanges. Both Polkadot and Tezos are public ledgers, though, so the transactions themselves are visible on-chain. For on-chain privacy, swap into a privacy coin such as Monero.
Your XTZ is paid on Tezos. Use an address that starts with tz1, tz2 or tz3. If your wallet or exchange gave you a memo, enter it as well; for a personal wallet it can usually be left empty. Always use an address in a wallet you control and double-check the first and last characters before sending.
Everything. The exchange's spread, the Tezos network fee for the payout and any service commission are already inside the quoted rate, so the amount shown is what you receive: exactly on a fixed rate, approximately on a floating rate. You only pay your own Polkadot network fee to send the deposit.
Yes. The reverse direction, XTZ to DOT, works the same way and has its own page and live rate on AltoSwap. Each direction is quoted independently, so the two rates are not exact mirrors of each other.
