What is Matcha?
Matcha is a DEX aggregator app built by 0x Labs on the 0x protocol. It charges a 0.25% swap fee on most pairs and no fee on stablecoin-to-stablecoin swaps; cross-chain swaps cost 0.40%. It supports 13 chains, including Solana. Matcha has no token of its own; 0x protocol uses ZRX.
How Matcha works
Matcha checks prices across DEXs such as Uniswap, Curve and Balancer and can split one order over several of them to reduce price impact.
You choose between two modes. Matcha Auto executes gaslessly: the network cost is built into the quote, and the help center says it protects you from sandwich attacks. Matcha Standard is a regular on-chain swap where you pay gas yourself. In the trade settings you can pick a gas speed (Normal, Fast or Urgent), turn individual liquidity sources off, or set a custom max slippage, which defaults to 0.5%.
Limit orders fill only at your exact price, can fill partially, and expire after 1 hour, 24 hours, 7 days or 1 month. They work for ERC-20 tokens on Ethereum, BNB Chain, Polygon, Base, Optimism, Arbitrum and Avalanche, so ETH must be wrapped first. The Advanced tab adds stop-loss and take-profit triggers, which fire a market swap at the best on-chain price once hit, with no price guarantee. Cross-chain swaps use Socket's bridge routing.
How to start with Matcha
- There is no sign-up.
- You connect a self-custody wallet, pick the tokens and trade, and the tokens you buy go straight to your wallet.
- With Matcha Auto you do not need the chain's native token for gas.
- Creating a limit order is free, and the taker pays gas when it fills; cancelling one early costs a small gas fee, while an order that reaches its expiry cancels at no cost.
- A confirmed market trade cannot be cancelled or reversed.
- Matcha Meta at meta.matcha.xyz is a separate product, also built by 0x, that compares quotes from other aggregators such as 1inch and ParaSwap.
Matcha fees and limits
- Market swaps cost 0.25% on most pairs in both Auto and Standard mode, and nothing when both tokens are stablecoins.
- Limit orders cost 0.02% on stablecoin pairs and 0.25% on other pairs, plus gas when filled.
- Cross-chain swaps cost 0.04% between stablecoins and 0.40% for all other pairs.
- The Cross Chain Swaps FAQ says users only pay the network fee of the sell token, while the fee page, updated more recently, lists the 0.04% and 0.40% rates.
Auto includes gas in the quote; Standard charges gas on top. The pages conflict on two points. The fee page also says Matcha may capture part of any trade surplus above your quoted amount, while the What is Matcha article says Matcha will never keep the difference between quoted and realized prices.
Risks to know before using Matcha
- Stop-loss and take-profit orders are triggered market swaps, and the help center warns that slippage can be higher in volatile or thin markets.
- Cross-chain swaps depend on Socket and the bridges it routes through, and the FAQ notes they can take a long time under congestion or low bridge liquidity.
