Cross-chain swap APIs compared. Flashnet and the alternatives, side by side.

Flashnet, Relay, NEAR Intents, deBridge and LI.FI side by side on what decides a swap integration for a wallet: how a swap is funded, firm and exact-output quotes, token coverage, Bitcoin and Lightning, refunds and fees.

Every fact about another provider is from its own docs, site or API, linked beside it, and was checked on October 27, 2026.

Orders
Swap with a plain transferYesEvery quote returns a deposit address; paying it creates the order. No wallet connection, approval or contract call.SourceYesA quote can return a deposit address instead of a transaction to sign.SourceYesA 1Click quote returns a deposit address on the origin chain; the swap starts when funds arrive.SourceNoEvery order is a transaction the user signs. No deposit-address flow is documented.SourcePartlySmart Deposit Addresses are an enterprise feature, enabled per integrator. Native ETH and BNB can't be the input.Source
Firm quotesYesA quote's price holds for 2 minutes within your slippage. Fixed-output quotes commit to the amount out.SourceNoQuotes are re-priced when filled, with a minimum-output guard. No stated validity window.SourcePartlyOutput bounded by your slippage and a deadline you set. No fixed window in which the price holds.SourceYesThe quoted rate is guaranteed if the user signs within about 30 seconds.SourcePartlyOutput bounded by a minimum. Rates are held for 24 hours only on opted-in deposit-address routes.Source
Exact-output quotesPartlyInto Lightning from most assets, and from Lightning into most. Fixed-output quotes, for approved partners, commit to the amount out.SourceYesEXACT_OUTPUT delivers exactly the amount asked, or fails and refunds on the origin chain.SourceYesEXACT_OUTPUT fixes the amount out; unused input goes back to your refundTo address.SourceYesA fixed amount out, with the amount in worked out for you; on same-chain swaps the amount out is a minimum.SourcePartlyA reverse quote sets the input so the user receives at least the amount; it executes as exact input.Source
Any token by addressYesAny SPL or ERC-20 token by address, in or out, on Solana and EVM chains, routed through a stablecoin on its own chain.SourceYesTokens with solver or DEX liquidity on most chains; Bitcoin, Tron, TON and XRP take listed tokens only.SourceNoTokens come from 1Click's token list; naming a token by contract address isn't documented.SourceYesAny token with DEX liquidity indexed by aggregators such as 1inch or Jupiter, settled through reserve assets.SourceYesAny token by address on its supported chains, liquidity permitting; high-tax tokens are rejected.Source
Same-chain swapsYesSuch as USDC into BONK on Solana, priced against Jupiter on Solana and DEX venues on EVM chains.SourceYesThrough the same quote API, by DEX meta-aggregation on the source chain.SourceYesOrigin and destination assets are set separately, so both can be on one chain.SourceYesThrough a separate same-chain swap API, including on Solana and Tron.SourceYesThrough the same quote endpoint.Source
Automatic refundsYesOrders that can't fill within the quote's bounds go back to the refund address you set.SourceYesRefunds go to the refundTo address on the origin chain, less gas. Without one, there's no automatic refund.SourceYesUnfilled or underpaid deposits go to your refundTo address after the deadline.SourcePartlyBy default the user cancels on the destination chain. Auto-cancel needs deBridge's approval, and refunds usually arrive as USDC.SourcePartlyIf a bridge step lands but the swap after it fails, the user is refunded in the bridged asset on the destination chain.Source
