FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What is a token swap and can I do it on Monlabs?
A token swap is an instant, on-chain trade between two assets that executes directly against decentralized liquidity pools meaning there is no order book, no counterparty, and no intermediary holding your funds. Because Monad utilizes parallel execution, these swaps settle with sub-second finality and near-zero gas.While Monlabs is a powerful smart contract deployer, it also serves as a comprehensive trading portal. Using our Swap interface, you can buy, sell, or trade any ERC-20 token on the Monad network. Whether you are providing your community a place to buy your newly launched token, or you are simply trading other ecosystem assets like MON or USDC, you can do it all seamlessly from our dashboard.
How does Monlabs ensure I get the best price for my swap?
Our built-in Swap feature functions as a powerful DEX Aggregator. To guarantee you receive the maximum token output with the lowest slippage, we utilize 0x smart routing to instantly scan liquidity across every major Monad decentralized exchange including Kuru, Uniswap, OctoSwap, and LFJ. Instead of restricting your trade to a single platform, the smart router calculates the most efficient mathematical path. If splitting your order across multiple different liquidity pools yields a better price, the protocol will automatically do so in a single, gas-optimized transaction.
What is slippage and why does it matter?
Slippage is the difference between the price quoted on your screen and the actual price your trade executes at. In decentralized finance, this happens when other users trade in the same liquidity pool before your transaction confirms, slightly shifting the token’s price. Because Monad features sub-second finality, your exposure to slippage on Monlabs is drastically lower than on slower networks. However, for complete protection, you can set a custom Slippage Tolerance in your swap settings. If market volatility pushes the execution price beyond your accepted limit, the smart contract automatically reverts the trade, ensuring you never get a worse deal than you agreed to.
Why do I need to approve a token before swapping?
Approving a token is a fundamental security feature built into the ERC-20 standard. Before any decentralized application (dApp) or swap router can trade your custom tokens, you must grant it explicit permission via an on-chain
approve transaction. This ensures that a smart contract cannot access or move your assets without your consent. For your convenience, this is a one-time signature per token. Once you approve a specific asset on Monlabs, all future swaps for that token will execute in a single click. (Note: Because MON is the native token of the network, swapping MON for another asset skips this approval step entirely.)Are there any fees to swap tokens on Monlabs?
Yes, Monlabs charges a flat 1% routing fee on swaps to maintain our advanced 0x DEX aggregation infrastructure, ensuring you always get the best execution price across the Monad ecosystem. The amount of tokens you see on the screen before you sign is exactly what you will receive.
