How to recover a cross-chain swap quote after closing a tab

If you closed a tab with a cross-chain swap quote, try to reopen it, then rebuild and refresh the quote before you act. A quote is a proposed trade: it shows the tokens, networks, expected amount and costs, but it is not the trade itself. Closing the tab usually does not move your funds.

Can browser history restore the quote?

Browser history or a recently closed tab may bring back the page, and sometimes the quote with it. Use the browser’s history menu or its shortcut for reopening a closed tab. If the page returns, check whether the token pair, networks and amount are still filled in.

A restored page may show old details or lose its quote state. Some swap pages keep choices in the page address; others hold them only in the open session. For more on comparing route costs and speed, see this Biswap guide to cross-chain swap cost and speed. It covers the trade-offs that a quick quote view may leave out.

How do you rebuild a lost cross-chain quote?

If the page will not restore the details, enter the same choices again. A cross-chain swap sends one token on one network and aims to deliver another token on a different network. The route may involve more than one step, so the displayed output can differ from a simple token-for-token price.

Check each of these before comparing the new quote:

• The token you are sending and the token you expect to receive.
• The sending and receiving networks.
• The amount, including whether it is in tokens or a fiat value.
• The estimated amount received, fees and any minimum output shown.

Small differences in the inputs can change the route. A different network or token with a similar name is not an equivalent quote. If you cannot recall the exact amount, look for it in your notes or wallet activity before proceeding.

When should you trust the refreshed quote?

Refresh the quote on the active page and review its details before approving anything. Prices and available liquidity—the tokens ready to trade—can change while a tab is closed. The refreshed estimate is more useful than a saved figure, but it can still change before the swap completes.

Make sure your wallet is connected to the network the quote says you will send from. Read the wallet prompt and confirm that its token and network match your intended trade. If you already approved a transaction before closing the tab, check your wallet activity for its status; rebuilding a quote will not tell you whether that transaction completed.

For most readers, the safest way to recover the decision is to reproduce the inputs and use a fresh quote, rather than rely on a restored number. Watch the receiving amount, fees and network when you refresh; those details show whether the trade still fits your plan.
