What it does
Zest is a non-custodial crypto exchange built for people who want to swap assets without creating another account or depositing funds into a platform-controlled wallet.
Choose the cryptocurrency you want to send, select what you want to receive, and enter your receiving wallet address. Zest shows the available rate, supported networks, minimum amount, and estimated amount you will receive before you create the exchange.
You can choose between fixed and floating rates. A fixed rate protects the quoted amount for a limited period, while a floating rate follows the market until your deposit is confirmed. Once the exchange begins, the order page shows each stage of the transaction, from waiting for the deposit to sending the new asset to your wallet.
Zest supports more than 1,000 cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, Monero, Tether, USD Coin, Litecoin, BNB, Dogecoin, and many more. Most exchanges finish in under two minutes after the deposit receives the required blockchain confirmations, although network congestion can affect the total time.
Zest also includes free tools for checking gas fees, researching token safety, following whale activity, comparing DeFi yields, calculating liquidation risk, tracking stablecoin prices, exploring market sentiment, and rebroadcasting stuck Bitcoin transactions.
Who it’s for
Zest is for people who already own cryptocurrency and want a simpler way to move between assets.
It is especially useful for self-custody wallet users, active traders, DeFi users, long-term holders, and anyone who does not want to open another centralized exchange account just to complete a swap.
The free tools are also useful for people who want to check network conditions, research an unfamiliar token, compare opportunities, or understand potential risks before making a transaction.
Pricing
There is no subscription or account fee to use Zest.
The crypto tools are free and do not require registration. When making an exchange, the rate and expected receiving amount are displayed before confirmation. Relevant exchange and network costs are reflected in the quote, so you can review the details before sending your funds.
Zest does not add hidden fees after an exchange has started. Minimum and maximum exchange amounts vary by asset, pair, and network.
