This guide covers 4 verified steps to resolve "Swap Transaction Reverted". Follow each step in order before moving to the next. If the steps below don't resolve your issue, use the community support options at the bottom of this page.

01

Increase Slippage Tolerance

Most DEXes default to 0.5%. For meme coins or low-cap tokens, go to swap settings and increase to 5–15% or even 49% for extreme cases.

02

Check Token Tax

Some tokens have buy/sell taxes (e.g., 10% tax). Set your slippage to at least the tax percentage + 1–2% buffer. Check the token contract on Etherscan for "transfer fee".

03

Verify Liquidity Pool

Check the token's liquidity on DEXScreener or Dextools. Very low liquidity causes high price impact and reverts.

04

Try a Smaller Amount

High price impact for large trades causes reverts. Split your swap into multiple smaller transactions.
