Orca

Getting Started

1. Visit orca.so and connect your Phantom or Backpack wallet.
2. Swap SPL tokens with clean, transparent pricing — or go directly through Jupiter for cross-DEX routing.
3. Provide concentrated liquidity in Whirlpools: pick a token pair, set your price range, and start earning fees.
4. Use Orca’s TypeScript SDK to integrate swaps and liquidity into your own Solana dApp.

How Orca Fits the Ecosystem

• Jupiter routing — Orca’s Whirlpools are a primary liquidity source for Jupiter. When you swap on any Solana app, Jupiter may split your trade across Orca, Raydium, and Meteora pools simultaneously.
• Developer-first — Orca’s open-source TypeScript and Rust SDKs make it the easiest DEX to integrate programmatically. Many Solana dApps use Orca’s SDK directly.
• Helius-powered — Like most Solana dApps, Orca relies on high-performance RPC providers like Helius for reliable transaction processing.
• Pyth integration — Uses Pyth Network price feeds for reference pricing and analytics.

Key Features

• Whirlpools (concentrated liquidity) — Provide liquidity within specific price ranges for dramatically higher capital efficiency. Earn more fees with less capital deployed.

• Open-source SDKs — Full TypeScript and Rust SDKs for developers to build swaps, LP management, and analytics on top of Orca programmatically.
• Clean, intuitive UI — Known for the simplest, most beginner-friendly interface among Solana DEXs.
• Fair pricing — Transparent fee tiers (0.01% to 2%) with clear display of price impact, slippage, and route details.
• Multi-token support — Hundreds of SPL token pairs with deep liquidity in major pairs (SOL/USDC, SOL/USDT, etc.).
