How to Bridge ETH to Polygon
Step 1: Head to Symbiosis and link your wallet.
The platform works great on both mobile and desktop.
Step 2: Select Polygon and Ethereum
Start by selecting Ethereum as the origin chain and Polygon as the target network for your transfer. Select ETH or any ERC-20 token you want to bridge.
Third Step. Review the transfer.
Enter the amount you'd like to transfer. You’ll see the estimated amount you’ll receive on Polygon after accounting for all transaction and network costs. Double-check the recipient wallet address — it’ll default to yours, but you can send to another if needed.
Step 4: Switch the Network and Confirm the Rate
If your wallet is connected to a different chain, you’ll be prompted to switch to Ethereum. Then, confirm the exchange rate and the route provided by Symbiosis for optimal efficiency.
Step 5: Confirm the Transaction
Just give the final approval in your wallet to proceed. Our WebApp will handle everything automatically, including any intermediate network hops if required.
Step 6: All Done!
That’s it. In just a few moments, your tokens will appear in your wallet. The process is quick, transparent, and fully decentralized — exactly how bridging should be.

More on Ethereum
Details
First developed by Vitalik Buterin in 2015, Ethereum was the first blockchain to incorporate smart contracts—self-executable programs free from third-party control or downtime. Foundations of most DeFi projects and home to hundreds of tokens, including the extensively used ERC-20 standard.
From lending platforms and NFT markets to DAUs and gaming initiatives, Ethereum drives a vast ecosystem of distributed apps that are scattered across. Providing safe and programmable money, this network is the preferred one for developers and creatives.
Ethereum is well-known for slower processing speeds during peak hours and greater gas costs notwithstanding its power. Many users thus stay linked to the Ethereum ecosystem while bridging assets to faster, more affordable Layer 2 alternatives like Polygon.
