About Squid Router

Squid uses existing DEXs for token swaps between chains via SDK or front end, enabling one-click cross-chain transactions for NFTs, DeFi, and gaming without multiple wallets. Integrated with Axelar's message passing.

cross-chain crypto trading Web3 blockchain

Squid Router is a powerful cross-chain liquidity and swap protocol that provides seamless access to tokens, NFTs, and DeFi services across more than 70 EVM and Cosmos chains. With blazing speed, no slippage, and support for thousands of tokens, Squid Router enables users to interact with multiple ecosystems without switching wallets, bridging assets, or worrying about gas complexities.

Whether you're buying NFTs with any token, swapping assets across chains in under 20 seconds, or integrating with dApps through Squid’s customizable SDK, the platform is built to deliver unmatched cross-chain utility. With 7 smart contract audits, over $1.5B routed safely, and 350K users, Squid is trusted by the biggest names in Web3 to power the future of permissionless liquidity.

Squid Router serves as a universal liquidity routing protocol that bridges the gaps between disparate blockchain networks. Built on top of Axelar, Squid facilitates cross-chain transactions across 70+ EVM and Cosmos chains, enabling instant swaps, NFT purchases, staking, and payments across ecosystems. With a streamlined user interface and backend SDK support, Squid Router allows both end users and developers to benefit from unified DeFi access—regardless of which chain they’re on.

Through innovations like Squid 2.0, the platform now offers same-chain and cross-chain swaps with 10x faster quoting, mobile optimization, swap history tracking, ENS support, and popular token pinning. Its Widget Studio allows anyone to create branded cross-chain swap interfaces, while developers can tap into Squid’s API for backend logic or integrate it as a widget in React, Vite, or Next.js environments.

Squid is not just for swapping—it enables cross-chain NFT checkout, multi-chain DeFi integrations, and instant gas provisioning. All swaps are secured and routed through Axelar’s audited infrastructure. Competitors such as Rango Exchange, LI.FI, and Socket offer similar bridging services but often lack Squid’s robust front-end flexibility, fast quote engine, or ecosystem integrations with top protocols like PancakeSwap, MetaMask, and dYdX.

With over 900K transactions routed and wide wallet compatibility—including MetaMask, Keplr, XDEFI, Trust, Coinbase Wallet, and more—Squid is a full-stack solution designed for developers, users, and DeFi projects that need reliable, ultra-fast, and gas-optimized cross-chain operations at scale.

Squid Router offers a powerful range of benefits and features that transform cross-chain interaction:

Cross-Chain Swaps: Instantly swap tokens across 70+ EVM and Cosmos chains, including same-chain and cross-chain transactions.
Blazing Fast Execution: Boost technology completes swaps in under 20 seconds with over 5 years of time saved across users.
ENS & NFT Support: Send tokens to ENS addresses and purchase NFTs across chains using any token.
Customizable SDK & API: Devs can embed Squid functionality via SDK, API, or the cross-chain widget for Web3 apps.
Widget Studio: Build fully-themed cross-chain interfaces with minimal coding using Widget Studio for React, Next.js, or Vite.
Gas Provisioning: Squid supplies gas on the destination chain—no need to hold native tokens for execution.
Audited and Secure: Backed by 7 audits and Axelar’s security layer, Squid has routed $1.5B+ safely and securely.

Getting started with Squid Router is quick and intuitive:

Access the App: Visit app.squidrouter.com and connect your crypto wallet. Squid auto-detects wallets like MetaMask, Trust Wallet, Keplr, and more.

Confirm Your Route: Squid shows real-time swap routes, fees, and estimates. Preview the route before proceeding.
Swap in Seconds: Click “Swap” to initiate the transaction. You’ll see a live tracker of your token’s journey until it arrives.
Advanced Dev Use: Developers can get started by applying for an Integrator ID and using the Squid SDK & API for backend or widget-based integrations.
Try Sandbox Mode: Use Squid’s test tools and example repos on GitHub to experiment with builds in testnets before deploying to mainnet.

Squid Router FAQ

Squid Router is more than just a bridge—it’s a universal liquidity router that enables seamless swaps, staking, minting, and payments across 70+ EVM and Cosmos chains. Unlike basic aggregators or bridges, Squid provides same-chain and cross-chain swaps, real-time route tracking, and smart features like gas provisioning and ENS support that traditional tools don’t offer.
Yes. Squid Router automates the entire cross-chain swap process, including gas fees and bridging. You simply select the source and destination tokens and networks, and Squid handles everything in one transaction. You don’t need to hold or move gas tokens manually, and you don’t need to interact with separate bridge platforms.
Squid Router is designed to handle most swap scenarios gracefully. If a trade fails due to too-low slippage or price changes, Squid ensures that your funds are returned in a default routing token on the destination chain. You can also adjust slippage settings or enable Degen Mode for higher-risk, high-impact swaps, though this is not recommended for beginners.
Squid offers a robust SDK and Widget system that lets developers embed cross-chain functionality into any frontend with minimal dev work. Using Widget Studio, you can theme the swap UI to match your brand and expand your app’s reach to multi-chain users. Squid is already integrated into projects like PancakeSwap, MetaMask, and dYdX.
Squid Router supports a wide range of EVM and Cosmos wallets including MetaMask, Trust Wallet, Keplr, XDEFI, WalletConnect, Coinbase Wallet, and many more. You can swap thousands of tokens across 70+ chains including Ethereum, BNB Chain, Arbitrum, Base, and Cosmos zones. The platform is constantly expanding to include more assets and networks.
