Can I Cancel an Exchange?

Whether and how you can cancel an in-progress exchange on Ghost Exchange.

Can I Cancel an Exchange?

It depends on the stage of your exchange.

Before Deposit

If you haven't sent your deposit yet, there's nothing to cancel. Simply close the page and don't send anything. The order will expire on its own.

After Deposit (Before Processing)

Once your deposit is on its way, cancellation is generally not possible. Blockchain transactions are irreversible.

During Processing

Once we've received your deposit and begun the exchange, it cannot be cancelled. The XMR privacy layer processing is irreversible.

After Completion

Completed exchanges are final. Crypto transactions cannot be reversed.

Alternative: Swap Back

If you need to reverse an exchange, simply create a new order in the opposite direction:

  • Sent XMR → BTC? Create a BTC → XMR order
  • Sent ETH → XMR? Create an XMR → ETH order

Note that you'll pay exchange fees again and the rate may have changed.

Exceptions

In rare cases of system errors or stuck orders, our support team may be able to initiate a refund. Contact Support with your order details.
