What Is PancakeSwap in Gem Wallet?
What Is PancakeSwap?â
PancakeSwap is a decentralized exchange that started on BNB Chain and now runs on several EVM networks. Gem Wallet routes same-chain swaps through PancakeSwap v3 pools.
You don't select PancakeSwap yourself. When you swap, Gem Wallet compares quotes from all supported swap providers and shows PancakeSwap when it offers a route for your pair. The provider is shown on the swap screen before you confirm.
Supported Networksâ
Gem Wallet uses PancakeSwap for same-chain swaps on: BNB Chain, opBNB, Ethereum, Arbitrum, Base, Linea, zkSync, Monad, and Robinhood Chain.
Both assets must be on the same network. To move assets between networks, Gem Wallet uses a cross-chain provider.
A pair only appears when the provider returns a live quote for it. Liquidity, amount limits, and route availability can change at any time.
If a PancakeSwap Swap Failsâ
A PancakeSwap swap is a single transaction on the selected network, so it either completes or fails as a whole. If it fails, the assets you were swapping stay in your wallet, but the network fee is still spent.
Common causes are a price move larger than your slippage setting, low liquidity for the pair, or not enough of the network's coin for the fee. See Why Was My Crypto Transaction Reverted? and What to Do When No Swap Quote Is Available.
Need Help With a Swap?â
Contact Gem Wallet support from Settings > Support in the app, and include the transaction ID of your swap. Before you share anything, read What Information Is Safe to Give Wallet Support?.
Gem Wallet support will never send you a direct message first, ask for your Secret Phrase or private key, or ask you to send funds to "fix" a swap. Anyone who does is a scammer.
