What are the benefits of Fusion Mode?

The Fusion Mode of 1inch allows you to place Limit order on your token swap by tapping into the aggregated liquidities from different DEXes. One of the biggest benefit of Fusion Mode is that you DO Not need to pay native tokens as the gas fee (for example you can still complete a swap on Polygon even when your wallet doesn’t have enough MATIC to pay for gas of the swap!) In addition it also offers MEV protection, which protects your trade from any front-running attacks. It also offers better pricing compared to the Classic swap, because your trade will be filled through a “dutch auction” process which does not cause any price impacts (i.e. no slippage).

Step-By-Step Guide on Using 1inch’s Fusion Mode

Below are steps to use the Fusion Mode on 1inch dApp:

1. Visit the 1inch dApp website

2. Select the trading pair, and click the arrow next to the gas estimation.

3. You will see the options of “Fusion” and Classic”. Select Fusion.

4. If you want, you can click the little button on the upper left of the Fusion box. Then you will be given on a number of advanced options. The “Auto” mode should be optimal for most situations. But if you want, you can choose the “Fast” mode (which will execute the fastest trade for you, but probably at a lower rate) or the “Fair” mode (which allow a longer trade execution time for a potentially better rate). You can also do further customizations as you want.

5. You can also see the estimated price and minimum price here.

6. Sign any approval required for the transaction, the click Swap.

7. Congratulations! Your Trade Order is placed. Just sit back and wait for its completion! — And there will be NO cost if the order is not filled and expired.
