What Exolix is
Exolix calls itself a cross-chain swap aggregator: its AML page says it gives access to the exchange services of independent third-party providers, and its homepage says it draws liquidity from more than 50 exchanges. Its terms, privacy and AML pages name only "Exolix", with no company or jurisdiction. Its currency API listed 514 currencies on 18 October 2026, XMR among them, and it quoted XMR swaps in both directions.
Its terms guarantee a fixed rate for 60 minutes from creating the transaction; if you do not send the deposit in that time, you create a new one. A floating rate is also offered. Exolix says it charges no separate fees because the rate is fixed: the amount shown is what you receive. It does not publish the spread built into that rate.
On ID checks, its terms say it never asks for KYC because of a transaction error, but that this does not apply when its security system flags the deposited funds as suspicious. Its AML page says Exolix or its third parties may ask for identity documents, including a government ID and a selfie or liveness check, and that the providers it routes to can ask for documents too.
