Using the Bridge
Step-by-Step Guide
1. Open the Bridge
Go to wbescbridge.com and connect your wallet (MetaMask or any EVM wallet).
2. Select Your Route
Choose:
- From — the source chain (e.g., BNB Chain)
- To — the destination chain (e.g., BESC Hyperchain)
- Asset — the token to bridge (e.g., BNB → WBNB)
The UI shows only valid routes for each asset combination.
3. Enter Amount
Type the amount you want to bridge. The bridge shows:
- Estimated fee
- Amount you will receive
- Current bridge status
4. Approve (if ERC-20)
If bridging an ERC-20 token (USDC, wBESC, etc.), you must first approve the bridge contract to spend your tokens. Click Approve and confirm in your wallet.
5. Submit
Click Bridge and confirm the transaction in your wallet.
For ETH/BNB bridging, the transaction sends the native coin directly to the bridge receiver. For tokens, it calls burn() or transfer() on the token contract.
6. Wait for Confirmation
The bridge UI tracks your transaction. Typical wait times:
| Route | Typical Time |
|---|---|
| ETH → BESC | 2–5 minutes |
| BSC → BESC | 1–3 minutes |
| BESC → ETH | 2–5 minutes |
| BESC → BSC | 1–3 minutes |
| XRP → BESC | 1–2 minutes |
| SOL → BESC | 30–90 seconds |
7. Check Your Wallet
Once confirmed, the bridged asset appears in your wallet on the destination chain. Switch your wallet to the destination network if needed.
Troubleshooting
Transaction submitted but no tokens received after 10 minutes:
- Check the bridge status page at wbescbridge.com
- Verify your transaction was confirmed on the source chain via the explorer
- Check you sent to the correct bridge address for your asset
