# Slippage

Slippage ensures that your transaction goes through even if the exchange rate changes slightly. The slippage, set by default at 1%, guarantees that after successful swap the user will receive **at least** 99% of the indicated amount. Users can adjust the slippage from 0.01% to 49.99%.

We allow, but highly discourage, the use of:

* Slippage < 0.1% - Low slippage may cancel the transaction due to a lack of liquidity. In such cases, the transaction will not go through, and your funds will be returned to your wallet, but you will pay the gas fee. **Funds spent on the gas fee are non-refundable.**
* Slippage > 1% - High slippage can result in losses due to an unfavorable exchange rate. High values can be used in low-liquidity markets, but do so with caution and an awareness of the associated risks.

Injex recommends using slippage of 0.5% - 1%. This is the golden mean to increase the likelihood of transaction completion with minimal risk of an unfavorable exchange rate change.
