How bridging to BNB Chain works
- 01Pick the asset and the destination
Choose what you are sending and select BNB Chain as the destination network. The amount that will arrive, the route and the time estimate appear before you connect anything.
- 02Compare routes
Every provider that covers the pair returns a live quote. They are ranked by the final amount after fees; the best one is selected and the others stay visible.
- 03Approve and sign
Tokens need a one-time approval for the exact amount; native gas tokens skip it. Then one signature creates the transaction on the source network.
- 04Receive on BNB Chain
Funds arrive at your address on BNB Chain once the source transaction is final; BNB Chain typically settles in ~1 min. You will need a little BNB to move them onward.
Wallets and execution
MetaMask, Rabby, Coinbase Wallet, WalletConnect work with BNB Chain. You sign from your own wallet; approvals are for the exact amount and the transaction is shown before signing.

Questions
How long does a bridge to BNB Chain take?
Usually a few minutes. BNB Chain confirms in about ~1 min; the total depends on the source network's finality plus relay time. The app shows an estimate per route.
Do I need BNB to receive on BNB Chain?
Not to receive. Gas is paid on the source network. You will need BNB on BNB Chain before you can send the funds anywhere else.
Which providers route BNB Chain?
The routes table lists them for each pair. Coverage differs by provider; where only one provider covers a pair, you see one route rather than a filler row.
What happens if a route fails?
Intent-based routes settle or fail as a unit. On failure the funds stay in your wallet on the source network. Routes that use a bridge plus a swap show their status step by step, with explorer links.
Why are there no curated routes for BNB Chain?
Curated pages exist for the routes people search for most. Any token on BNB Chain can still be quoted and, where execution is supported, swapped from the app.
